[svn] 24/24 unlocked birth options (incorrect)

#1 Post by greycat »

Just unlocked Necromancer in svn on the work machine. Wanted to verify that it actually worked, so I saved-and-exited, and started a new game. At the top of the birth screen it says "Character Creation (24/24 unlocked birth options)", but this is not correct, because Marauder is still locked. (Necromancer is unlocked, as expected.)

Also, I don't know whether this is relevant or not, but Necromancer does not currently appear on http://te4.org/users/greycat . (Wondering whether the unlock will be seen by the home machine....) (It is not seen on the home machine. I need to figure out how this stuff is supposed to work....)

Unlocks and achievements that you gain with a non-validated game are not reflected on the site. Or thats the way i understand it.

I get more and more confused by the hour. I started looking through ~/.t-engine for the file(s) where the unlocks are, and couldn't actually find one... well, I found one from February that only had 4 lines in it. (On the work machine, I definitely remember finding one with a mod time that was right for the unlock, that had a whole lot more than 4 lines.)

Ran t-engine again, since my last char had just died, and now Necromancer is available.

Those two files exist now, but I swear, they did not exist earlier. The offline one is timestamped at the last time I played, last night. The online one is timestamped 1312764168 (Aug 7). But when I did a recursive dump of all the files earlier, it didn't appear:

Code: Select all

golem:~/.t-engine/4.0/tome$ find . -type f -printf '%T@ %p\n' | sort -n
...
1312745802.9239292350 ./save/Bim.hotkeys
1312756846.8208865060 ./vault/Zappie/character.teac
1312756846.8708874620 ./vault/Zappie/desc.lua
1312766921.5013646710 ./save/Zappie.hotkeys
1313112110.0545305750 ./vault/Khyl/character.teac
1313112110.1045315350 ./vault/Khyl/desc.lua
1313253952.3852667660 ./vault/Sosa/character.teac
1313253952.4352677820 ./vault/Sosa/desc.lua
...
See, nothing in profiles at 131276*. I can only conclude that at some point after I did that recursive dump, the game downloaded the online profile from the web site and timestamped it back to Aug 7 (presumably using the Last-Modified field from the HTTP headers or something).

Still, it's puzzling why I didn't have this file after all the other times I'd played svn between Aug 7 and yesterday.

And, just to get back on track, the game shouldn't say "24/24 birth options" if there are still locked classes!
