Loading large chat log freezes game when loading world - 211.6.7

[ARedstoneMan]

Description

Game freezes up when loading into a world or server on "Loading Terrain" screen and forces the user to force quit the game. When chatlog.json is deleted or renamed, game functions as normal (will link problematic chat log below)

How to reproduce

1. Use given chat log
2. Load game
3. Attempt to join any server or world

Expected result

When you attempt to join a world or server, it should load you in without freezing indefinitely. Also, something specific in the chat log should not prevent loading into a world.

it seems like chatpatches didn't even load the chatlog completely, so i wonder if it was just taking a really long time to process all the data, although this is a concerning issue. the log shows 35 history messages and 5195 received messages

[mrbuilder1961]

i assume the issue will persist, but could you try loading the chatlog with this dev version and lmk the results?

[ARedstoneMan]

Issue persists.

i'm facing this issue too. an obvious fix is to disable the chat log, which does work in preventing the issue but ofc if you want the chat log (which i do) then it isnt a permanent fix.

[ARedstoneMan]

I may be wrong, but the way I understand it, a potential fix could be to clear old messages in the log after too many have been logged, to keep the file size low.

the message limit is set by the max message config option. so if you have a large value it will increase the footprint and time to load. that's not to say softlocking the game is intended, however.

[SirPotato42]

I also have this issue

[ttrafford7]

confirm this too

[DrKasango]

Tried the latest build, the issue persists. https://mclo.gs/0olfsQv

Btw, tried to reduce the max message config option to 5000, still freezed on loading world. Sorry for the confusion with the issue #180.

[mrbuilder1961]

No worries, thanks for re-uploading it over here. if possible, could you try to load the chat log again and just wait it out until the game either crashes or it loads? Then when you send the log, chat patches will note how long it took and I can use that for future debugging!

[DrKasango]

Last 10 times or so it was just loading terrain with neither crashing the game or letting me in for more than 10 minutes, while no new lines appeared in the latest.log file, so it ends exactly the same when I manually force the application to close. I can try again, of course, but I am not sure such a log will be of any help.

[mrbuilder1961]

okay i understand, that should be enough on its own. i am wondering is this on every server or just specific ones? and does this happen on single player at all?

additionally if you could upload your chat log file to pastebin or something that would be great and i can try to reproduce your scenario.

[DrKasango]

The same for other servers and for singleplayer as well. Singleplayer log: https://mclo.gs/uiYdjg5 https://pastebin.com/WjxxjgCr

[DrKasango]

Tried 211.6.7 just in case, issue persists. https://mclo.gs/KZIZXgt

[RomanPro100]

Same issue, world loading takes around 2 MINUTES, both when joining Singleplayer and Multiplayer

[mrbuilder1961]

has anyone experienced this issue without any other mods installed, minus dependencies?

[DrKasango]

Here is the log without any other mods installed (except fabric api and kotlin): https://mclo.gs/3mKirK6

[DrDerp04]

I also have this issue. are there any fixes for it?

[SirPotato42]

I second this

[mrbuilder1961]

here's a dev build you all can try and then report back with info and logs: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1077296221464559737/1284343152882221188/chatpatches-211.6.7-dev1.jar?ex=66e64945&is=66e4f7c5&hm=bb1f53717e40931b38668616ecad78f18d12163fd37de644e719fdeabaa3e6d8&

[DrKasango]

Haven't noticed any changes: https://mclo.gs/Bfe2EEr

[mrbuilder1961]

whoops, forgot some very obvious stuff. please try this one instead: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1077296221464559737/1284648566890958932/chatpatches-211.6.7-dev2.jar?ex=66e765b5&is=66e61435&hm=a757c95069aad13d655ba89e03778c3f99ebfaf367085b1c424c65709118abb8&

[DrKasango]

Seems to be fixed, thanks a lot!

[RomanPro100]

Seems to be fixed for me too, still a tiny bit (0.5-1s) slower than without the mod

link is broken

[mrbuilder1961]

try the build here, should be minutely faster https://github.com/mrbuilder1961/ChatPatches/actions/runs/10875600736
