Crafting Skill Potion

Mindwipe breaks the Levels
Somehow mindwipes can still be used while the crafting skill potion is active and after it runs out you get your old stats back and can level again. So can gain infinite stats if repeated.
Any way to fix this ?

Experienced the same thing.

As looking at putting this on my servers, but there is a massive exploit bug with this mod that allows the player to consume mindwipe tonics while under the skill potion effects.

Once the skill potion wears off and restores the stats, you end up with all those skill points to spend.

This is a deal breaker for me till it is fixed.
Will stay subscribed to this discussion in the hopes that you can fix it, Firesolved... because otherwise, this is an amazing mod.

Hello! Just saw Digitalemu's comment a few days ago. Sorry that I did not see this thread you created a few months back, Bloody. I could have and definitely would have fixed this ASAP had I noticed this. Sorry about that.

Anyway, I originally thought it was something Wildcard must have done because I specifically recall having a code in the mod to prevent mindwipe consumption while under the effects of the crafting skill potion. Somehow when I updated the mod in November that part of the code was left out (I had to rebuild the mod from the ground up), so my apologies.

I am cooking an update right now to implement that code which will prevent mindwipes from being consumed while the buff is active, which should resolve this exploit.

Thank you for letting me know and again, apologies for taking so long to fix it.
ALL characters, or just the ones that applied the exploit?

Hang on, let me save my character and log in. I never did this exploit, so if my character is gone, then we will have to discontinue this mod until it gets fixed.

I havnt used the exploit, just been following the thread. Mine has gone, so has a new player who joined the server moments before the update was applied.

Okay, I backed up all the characters, so let me log in and see if my character is missing.

Thank you. Please let me know ASAP. If it does it to your character as well I will revert the mod back to the previous version.
My character is okay.

Can anyone else confirm if their character was wiped after the update? Or can anyone else confirm that their character is completely fine after update? Thank you.
I wonder if it has something to do with the map version. (By the way, Firesolved, you should know what Crack Sparrow and I are on the same cluster, and I run it from my home on a personal server. I don't know if this makes a difference or not). But my Genesis 2 map is 345.19, and the others are all 345.6. I've updated that map like 3 times and can't get the version to change. I don't know if this makes a difference or not.
My character was parked on a different map (Lost Island).

all fine with my character. only on one server/cluster so i can't really test if it might have something to do with a possible incompatibility with a different mod.

Hang on Fire - I am an new server owner, and I might have made this happen.

@Toifel thank you for letting me know!

@killashandrasings haha okay thanks for the updates!
I think it was me, Fire, sorry. All the other maps seem to be okay. If everybody else reports in that all is okay, then all is good. Thanks, and by the way, I love the mod! I hate Mindwiping, it's such a pain. XOXO

Confirmed: My mistake - sorry to have panicked everyone. All is well. XOXO
