Max loop limit question

Been a while!

Anywho, tasked with finding a way to trace a players account from email.
This is to find offline players rather than just online, e.g. helping to recover lost accounts where the player has lost access to the email account but still knows the email address that was used to identify etc.

I seem to have hit an issue with what I assume are limits imposed by the internals of Graal, my method of getting a list of all the accounts ever used to check against was looping through the player houses folder:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated(){

  this.maxlooplimit = 15000;

  echo(this.maxlooplimit); //Echos 15000

  LookFor("[email protected]", 1);

}



//Params:

// st - string  - Either IP or Email.

// sw - integer - 0 for IP, 1 for Email.

function LookFor(st,sw){

  temp.p = 0;

  temp.f = 0;

  temp.list = new[0];

  temp.fold = new[15000];

  temp.fold.loadfolder("levels/houses/players/*Graal*", false);

  echo("Looking for "@st@" in "@fold.size()@" houses");

  temp.fold[10123] = "test";

  echo(fold[10123]);

  for(temp.i : temp.fold){

    temp.acc = temp.i.tokenize("_")[1];

    //Skip PC accs, since they haven't identified.

    if(acc.substring(0, 5) != "Graal") continue;

    temp.p = new TServerPlayer(@acc);

    if(sw){

      //Look for Email

      if(st.lower() == p.client.email.lower()){

        echo("Found player: "@acc);

        temp.f = 1;

        break;

      }

    }else{

      //Look for IP

    }

  }

  if(!temp.f) echo("Unable to locate player.");

  temp.p.destroy();

}

This is the RC output, any ideas?

Is this the line you think you have a limit?

Because you have

Quote:

temp.fold = new[15000];

In your code. And you also have maxlooplimit set, but not sure of the conditions when that gets triggered tbh.

Hmm I'm out of ideas then... Also hey, I remember you from when I was on Era PC ha

PHP Code:


		
			
temp.fold = new[15000];

Was my attempt when I thought maybe the default array size was 10k.

PHP Code:


		
			
  temp.fold[10123] = "test"; 

  echo(fold[10123]);

This also has no effect..

Default (Not sure if you can even change the max limitations) size is 9999.

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  temp.fold = new[15000];  
  temp.fold[9999] = {"test"};  
  echo(temp.fold[9999]);  
}

test,

Echoes Test while

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  temp.fold = new[15000];  
  temp.fold[10000] = {"test"};  
  echo(temp.fold[10000]);  
}

echoes nothing.

I also noticed the method in which you are using to get the players account. What if they don't have a player house? How I would personally do it without loading the accounts folder directly is every player that logs into the game register them in SQL.

You can indeed raise the maxlooplimit on serverside and clientside.

However, it won't take effect until the next tick, so if you intend to do something that's loop-intensive onCreated() you're going to need to schedule it with scheduleEvent or timeout.

If it's possible, try a timeout instead of a scheduleevent.

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() {
  maxlooplimit = 100001;
  example();
}

function example() {
  for (temp.i = 0; temp.i < 99999; temp.i++) {
    temp.c++;
  }
  echo(temp.c); // echos 99999
}
