Perpetual total darkness

[liorrozen]

Hi,

I'm using this mod in the invasion modpack (v1.0.5) running on a server and I'm getting total darkness on every night. This does not reproduce in a single player world.

• MC version 1.10.2
• Forge version 12.18.3.2254
• Perpetual total darkness using HardcoreDarkness-MC1.10.2-1.9.jar
• Only a single total dark night using HardcoreDarkness-MC1.9.4-1.8.jar (this is what I expect)

Here are the relevant config settings (defaults for the pack) -

# Configuration file

settings {
    ...
    # 0: No minimum sky & block light, 1: No minimum block light, 2: Skylight is dependent on moon phase
    I:Mode=2

    # In mode 2 this list defines how much skylight there is when 0%/25%/50%/75%/100% of the moon is visible. (Values go from 0 (Total Darkness) to 1 (Total Brightness)).
    D:MoonLightList <
        0.0
        0.075
        0.15
        0.225
        0.3
     >
}

Even when setting all values in MoonLightList to 1 the nights were 100% dark. It seems that on a server these values are ignored.

Please let me know if there is any other relevant information I can provide.

The server overrides the clients configs so could you post the server config please?

[liorrozen]

@lumien231 The snippet I gave was from the server config.

Thanks for the quick response :)

[Darkosto]

Hey @lumien231 any chance you were able to investigate this? :)

Hope you're doing well! :D

Does this still happen on 1.0.6 ? I can't reproduce this there.

[Darkosto]

Honestly, any of the testing I've done from pre-release through 1.0.6 hasn't produced this issue. I'm not too sure how it could be happening for others. I run a windows server myself, is it possible it only happens on a Linux OS?

[liorrozen]

@Darkosto @lumien231 - Can reproduce this using version 1.0.7 of the pack. I am running the server on linux in a docker container.

Here are the steps I'm doing - You can see these as a GIF or screenshots.

1. spawn into a fresh instance
2. /set time 1000 - putting the sun into view
3. /set time 15000 - set to night. total darkness.
4. /time add 24000 - goto next lunar phase. total darkness.
5. repeating step 4 yields same results through all lunar phases.

Is there any other info I can provide that might be useful? Hardcore-Darkness doesn't appear to have changed, but the forge version did... coincidence? ( raised eyebrow )

Hi folks, just wanted to add here that while watching Direwolf20's invasion series, it appears that in at least the past 7 episodes, every night has been 100% dark - exactly the same as I am experiencing.

[lumien231]

So yeah, when i try Invasion with a linux server i get the same issue.

[Darkosto]

Ahh! There's the issue. I use a windows server for most of my testing.

I can confirm this issue on a Linux server. Did not show itself in singleplayer (Windows).

Downgrading to 1.9.4-1.8 seems to have solved it.
