EDDI wipes main star data on jumping to a system #2557

Closed Darkcyde13 closed 1 year ago

What's Wrong (please be as specific as possible)

Expected

System data to remain intact at all times.

Observed

Main star data is wiped (set to null) in the database when you jump to a system.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Check the JSON in the EDDI database for any system you have previously visited in the past.
  2. Make sure it has correct data for the main star.
  3. Jump to that system. Do not close EDDI.
  4. Recheck the JSON in the database.
  5. Observe that the main star data is now all set to null.
  6. Test EDDI for the system data.
  7. Observe that EDDI has complete data for the main star.
  8. Close and reopen EDDI.
  9. Test for the system data again.
  10. Observe that the main star data is now missing.

Configuration

My Investigation

Investigation Notes

I realised that one of my scripts was telling me I hadn't scanned the main star in systems I know that I have fully scanned. So I checked the database and found the data for the main star was set to null.

I checked the database for another system I know I've fully scanned, and made sure the main star data was all there. I then jumped to that system, and rechecked the database. I found the database entry for that main star was now all set to null.

Reported on the forums, and confirmed in this post here.

I don't know if this is related at all, but I've also noticed that the 'shortname' for stars no longer removes the system name. So, for example, the short name for "Wardal A" is literally that, instead of just "A". If this is a separate issue, then I can open a new ticket for it.

Ok. I think I've found the code segment that is causing the problem. It doesn't set a systemname property (which is needed for the shortname to work) so this observation is confirmatory evidence that I'm in the right place. :-)
