Vivariums, S+, Update... Chaos

[Emigo]

After todays update, dinos pulled out of the vivarium from the structures plus mod come out wild. Anyone else with the same issue?

[Selune]

Yes it's general : most of S+ dino related structures (and even doors, cloning chamber, etc), and many other very used mods (like Steampunk or Dino Storage v2) are broken.
It's a total mess !

We can't play anymore on our 6 servers' cluster. We are many ppl waiting for a divine sign from any dev.
They are probably working on this major issue. We hope so and we can't do anything else than crossing fingers...

There are reports that a few mods were affected by the latest update. Something related to storage. May have to wait for WC to acknowledge and fix it.

After the patch, I can still access my S+ structures, but i can't mount any dinos or open any dino inventories anymore. I use Dino Storage V2 as well.

An interesting message from the Dino Storage v2 creator :
Ark update 11-6-19 that introduced new HLNA notes and Corrupted Avatar boots, has changed something else in the background. No information has been given about this change, but I can only speculate that it effects mods using spawn from dino data functions. I suspect a signature change to that function and it may not be fixable until they release a new dev kit update. It effects Dino Storage, Easy Cryo, S+ Vivarium, S+ Cloning Chamber and more... Essentially, anything that uses spawn from dino data. Vanilla cryopods will work simply because they have the signature change updated, but I can't do that until a dev kit update is released. Hopefully I, or Zen Rowe, can help assist in a work around to resolve the issue. The issue at hand being, that releasing a dino messes up your team. Everything stays green and interactable, but it's counting you as an enemy and you can't ride dinos. The cause is unknown, and it's strange because I only deal with dino stuff and certainly do nothing to the player in my mod. Anyhow, I wish you all the best and I will be dilligently working in the background to find any way possible to get around the issue.

That message got updated a little. Temporary solution seems to be that relog, suicide, or teleportation fixes the player.

I have a few ideas to try...

• Option A) Sever the `get team` link from the player that connects to `spawn from dino data`, and than force set the dino team *after* it spawns. Basically leave no player links whatsoever tied to that function.
  
• Option B) Teleport the player a forward half-step, or forward and back a little, on release. If teleportation fixes it, maybe this hack can too.

Each cook takes 3 hours. So it's a lot of "hurry up and wait". First test is cooking. Going to push it to the test branch in the morning. Wife will kill me if she sees me up this late.

Fingers crossed.

Who wants mods in their game anyway... Oh wait these mods are the reason the game was alive at all. Great move wc

[Nymbil]

We have to vivarium bug, along with many others. I even tried reinstalling all mods, but guess we just don't get to play until they fix it? Good thing I have another server I can switch to ans ARK server so my players can play default ARK in the mean time.

[KitsuneShiro]

That all suck. Guess its time to see if any other games are worth playing...while we wait. Fingers crossed that WC acknowledges and fixes the problem.

Anybody know if the S+ Gacha Gavage is affected?

Well given that its got to do with spawning dinos... I am unsure why you are considering the Gavager? It doesnt spawn anything...

I've been playing Ark for years and most of that time on modded servers... I've come to expect the very worst
Like, innocuous patch of 50mb? Graphics card grows limbs and tries to choke me. Unrealistic? Maybe, but this is Ark after all...

Bed travel also works to temporarily reset the permissions/authority/ownership/access (insert any other name you want to call it) issue.

Just line up a few bunk beds and every time you do something bed travel from one to the other, don't forget to pick up your stuff.

[Hélyos]

bed travel only works for few structures permission ... not for all
