Golem: Average Condition uptime not showing on some logs

[Quadellupine]

Hey!

In an attempt to minmax confusion uptime and DPS on mirage, we used your tool to parse golem logs. They usually showed the amount of stacks of confusion the golem had on average. However, in the actual benchmark log (lol) this function randomly stopped working. The damage is also much lower than normal. The ingame meter shower ~34k as endnumber, the log only shows 27.

I'm not sure if this issue is arc or parser related, hence why I wanted to make that post and ask.

This does not look like a confusion bug, in the bugued log Tolgon does not have any power damage xD Let me take a look

[EliphasNUIT]

Which version did you use? A previous version had issues. This is what I'm getting in my branch:

Edit: This does not happen with 1.3 either

That file name ending in .evtc.zip__fail.html makes me think this is indeed a older version of EI

[Quadellupine]

I didn't update to the version released 13h ago, for some reason I didn't get a notifcation. The part that was weird to me was that all other (And it were many) previous golem logs worked, just not this one in particular.

[Quadellupine]

Update, parsing it with the updated version causes the command line to throw errors and close before I can read them. It also errors "while performing background operations" if I open it in the exe.

Am I just dumb?

[EliphasNUIT]

I'll fix that ASAP, we had a major rework as to how the application works, that must be the cause.

Edit: No scratch that, looks different Can you send the log please? I remember this issue should have been fixed sometimes ago

This is the bugged log I tried to parse

[EliphasNUIT]

This is a golem right? seems like there is a regression on its death time, apparently you have been fighting it for 292471208 years. The application did not like that. Investigating

[Quadellupine]

He did say it felt like it took that long lol

[EliphasNUIT]

Was there an issue during the logging process? I'm seeing stuff that shouldn't be possible:

• There are two different golems
• One receives all the condi damage
• The other receives all the power damage
• The other golem receives the condi application but the first golem receives the damage they cause lol I've checked with raid heroes, it also has the same issue, the damage is split between 2 golems

I've fixed the issue of the golem not beeing properly detected, however as I said, there are two golems in the logs, this could be an Arc related issue

Here is the video of the whole fight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSO3_dXm4EI

100% Arc dps issue, if you check your vid you can see that you are at 27Kish boss dps and 33Kish total dps

That would explain why at first GW2El did not detect the golem, to fix the detection I had to change the detection algorithm Delta advises to use at https://www.deltaconnected.com/arcdps/evtc/README.txt .

I'm not sure if I should push that fix now.

[Quadellupine]

Not sure, as in it might break something else?

[EliphasNUIT]

Yes, because it is kinda hacky ^^ And even if I did you'd never get all the data you'd like to, it is impossible to properly detect applied conditions in this log. Also, this situation is completely random, does not happen on every golem log, I believe this should be put into Delta's attention.

Edit: I'll try to come up with a "cleaner" hack in case nothing can be done on Delta's side

[EliphasNUIT]

Good news, I have something but I don't know how robust it is. At least it can't break anything outside of golems

[EliphasNUIT]

There you go:

[Quadellupine]

Thank you very much! I'll message delta about this issue later I guess.

[EliphasNUIT]

I think we'll do another quick release soon. Please don't hesitate to come back if you see golem issues, i'm really not convinced that the hack covers everything ^^

Send them to me through Discord and I'll "complete" the hack ASAP

[baaron4]

You can always send files over Github just have to .zip them first.

[EliphasNUIT]

Damnit Baaron, I'm trying to attract people to GW2EI discord here! =D

[EliphasNUIT]

Should be definitively fixed in next release. If not please re-open an issue =D
