Better Saving

[MelnCat]

Currently, hack.player.forceSaveCharacter() only saves some times. We need to figure out what method saves everything.

[BoredFishRE]

Try seeing what the game runs when saving then try that. Gonna look into that though.

[BoredFishRE]

Apparently a prototype part of game. Also noticed that every time it saves, puts saveEnabled = 1 which affects other parts of game.

[BoredFishRE]

Force save has multiple properties forceSaveCharacter, and forceSaveTown(has to do with math town). Found updateUserData, maybe could be used like first, forceSaveCharacter, then updateUserData

HOW?!

@TNThacker2015 it seems like entering a battle saves the character, we could make it so it enters a battle, and then uses

hack.instance.game.state.states.Battle.startVictory()

to win instantly, thus saving the character. It's kinda inconvenient, so this definitely shouldn't be our solution, but it's a placeholder for now.

These hacks are only temporary. Normal users will not be able to see levels past 100. This is from the hacker's perspective.

and this is from a normal user's perspective the only way you would be able to see a hacked level is if you yourself have hacks.

You can do this by manually setting hack.player.data.level.

hack.player.data.level = 1e5

Seems like some things save instantly, and some don't...

What saves

• Level
• Pets
• Achievements
• Things you get from hacks, like member boxes

What doesn't save

• Inventory
• Nicknames
• Pets being equipped and/or leveled up

To be honest, the biggest issue is the inventory.

Update: We've found that this data saves:

"userID"
"target.x"
"target.y"
"appearance.name"
"appearance.name.first"
"appearance.name.middle"
"appearance.name.last"
"appearance.name.nick"
"appearance.gender"
"appearance.hair.style"
"appearance.hair.color"
"appearance.skinColor"
"appearance.eyeColor"
"appearance.face"
"isMember"
"equipment.boots"
"equipment.follow"
"equipment.hat"
"equipment.outfit"
"equipment.weapon"
"data.level"
"data.win"
"data.loss"
"data.gold"
"data.tower"
"data.stars"
"data.hp"
"data.team"
"data.allowsHouseVisitors"
"data.versionID"
"data.playerTransformation.transformType"
"data.playerTransformation.transformID"
"equipment.mount"
"coOpTeam.hostID"
"coOpTeam.teamMembers"

How did you find that?

[PatheticMustan]

I found it

[ArcerionDev]

emitMessagereferences MESSAGE_SCHEMAS, which are those.

[PatheticMustan]

Lines 17209 - 17211 in 3-8-3.js

t.MESSAGE_SCHEMAS = {

It looks like to save, Prodigy makes a post request to https://api.prodigygame.com/game-cortex-server/v3/characters/`userID`. If we do this as well, we probably could save more then we do now.

[ArcerionDev]

Alright, so here's what we know. _.player.forceSaveCharacter() posts a JSON file something like this:

{"inventory":{"weapon":[{"ID":25}],"item":[],"outfit":[],"relic":[],"boots":[],"hat":[],"currency":[{"N":20,"ID":13}],"fossil":[],"follow":[],"mount":[{"ID":1}],"key":[{"ID":13,"lvl":0}],"spellRelic":[]},"data":{"settings":{"bgmVolume":0.3,"voiceVolume":1,"sfxVolume":0.9},"battleCounter":1,"level":1,"storedMemberStars":0,"hp":530,"memberStarsExpirationDate":1598241599000,"stars":-1e+22,"team":0,"allowsHouseVisitors":false,"membershipVideoTimeStamp":1597690457536,"gold":100,"versionID":36,"school":"none","zone":"forest-B8","daily":{"lastStarted":0,"isComplete":false},"startDate":1597690336702,"nm":2,"energy":1},"isMember":1,"tutorial":{"zones":{},"menus":{}},"pets":[],"encounters":{"pets":[{"firstSeenDate":1597690414009,"ID":81,"timesBattled":1,"timesRescued":0}]},"quests":{},"appearance":{"name":{"last":882,"first":44,"middle":754},"hair":{"color":1,"style":19},"face":4,"gender":"male","eyeColor":1,"skinColor":1},"equipment":{"boots":19,"weapon":19,"hat":19,"outfit":19,"follow":19},"house":{"currentHouseTag":"suburbs","active":[{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":480,"y":160,"z":1,"ID":17},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":400,"y":160,"z":1,"ID":3},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":440,"y":100,"z":1,"ID":18},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":840,"y":100,"z":1,"ID":18},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":880,"y":240,"z":1,"ID":14},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":880,"y":140,"z":1,"ID":1},{"anchorY":0,"r":0,"stack":[],"dx":0,"dy":0,"x":640,"y":80,"z":1,"ID":13}],"bg":{"active":1,"own":[1]},"items":{"1":{"A":[],"N":1},"3":{"A":[],"N":1},"13":{"A":[],"N":1},"14":{"A":[],"N":1},"17":{"A":[],"N":1},"18":{"A":[],"N":2}}},"achievements":{"kills":1,"progress":{},"gE":100},"state":{"tutorial":{"0":4},"world":{"bounties":[13445393.622196501,86931385.37942387,611311514.0192045]},"zone":{"forest":{"8":{"date":"08172020","flags":[1,1,1,1,1],"rewards":0},"quest":{"ID":1,"state":{"2":1},"seq":0,"req":{"ID":81,"type":"pet","U":true,"N":1}}},"lamplight":{"2":"08172020"},"house":{"quest":{"ID":2}},"academy":{"quest":{"ID":2}}},"breadcrumbs":{"FEATURE_BATTLE_TUTORIAL":3,"BREADCRUMB_UNLOCK_ACADEMY":1,"FEATURE_SOCIAL_FEED":1,"FEATURE_BADGES":1},"towers":{"earthtower":{"achievementPagesCount":0,"wardenSaved":false,"floors":0,"boss":false,"achievementMonstersCount":0}}}}

So it contains:

Inventory (Boots, hats, etc.)
Pets
settings
battleCounter
level
storedMemberStars
hp
memberStarsExpirationDate
stars
team
allowsHouseVisitors
membershipVideoTimeStamp
gold
versionID
school
zone
daily
startDate
nm
energy
encounters
quests
appearance
equipment
house
achievements
state

These always save at least locally. However, Prodigy caches a lot of their files, and uses what's in the gamedata locally. So a definite fix is to clear your cache and cookies. Hope this helps!
