Somehow the step of automatically obtaining the right address to apply
to slave.public_address, and asking for the master url and token for ctl
installations was implemented but the code to actually set it in the
relevant config was forgotten.
The serialization and deserialization of editor mode is not supported by
the current code, and while the download correctly checked for the
player being in editor mode, the upload did not check for the player
being in editor mode causing players in editor mode to break. Fix by
adding check in upload_inventory.
Fix commands syncing researces being sent before the instance is started
up, and potential desync of research progress as a result of out of
order execution of RCON commands sent.
If the session to a slave is lost while gathering metrics the error
would propagate out to the metrics route handler and break collection of
statistics. Fix by handling errors thrown from sending the getMetrics
request to slaves.
Don't bother doing the prepareDisconnect dance if the connection is
already broken. This avoids having to wait until the connection times
out when a slave gives up on a current connection and starts a new one.
If a connection has timed out the most likely cause is the connection
going stale, in which case calling close could take up to 30 seconds
before the ws lib gives up on waiting for the close message. Terminate
the connection instead on the Node.js side. Note that Firefox does not
permit applications from closing connections with a code other than
1000, or in the range 3000-4999.
The INI format Factorio use differs from what the ini package parse and
produce. Most notably no escape mechanism exists in Factorio's parser
which causes instance paths containing among other thing the # character
to completely break. Fix by replacing the ini package with a Factorio
compatible implementation of INI parsing and serialization.
Resolves the problem in #414.
Move the save list subscription permission to be after the save list
permission as these two permissions are logically related to each other
and both need to be granted to view the save list in the web interface.
Add the roles and their permissions for the user the control connection
is connected as along with updates when these change. This enables the
web interface to know which permissions it has available to it.
Fix has_data not being checked by sync_player, dialog being stuck open if
no data is received by the master and master server refusing to server
empty data.
Add optional limit to the number of log records to return in the
log query request to avoid having the web interface instance console
download the entire log for only to show a few hundred lines from it.
To make it possible to query the end of the log instead of just the
start add an order option as well.
With the instance status unknown now meaning assigned slave is offline
the save list buttons can now easily be disabled using this status.
Disable the upload save, download save and delete save buttons when the
slave is offline or the instance is not assigned to a slave.
The system for preventing items being sent without a connection to the
master and (and thus voiding the items) is to only do so if a ping from
the plugin has been received in the last 5 seconds of in-game time.
Don't send pings without being fully connected to the master to make
sure this system actually activates during connection downtime.
Ignore inventory updates and orders while the instance is not in the
running state to avoid sending commands before the server has started
up, and also ignore orders if the connection to the master server isn't
isn't online to avoid piling up requests in the buffer during session
resume attempts.
Since the connector refactor the action of sending a message on a
connector that is in the process of connecting changed from queuing up
the message to send it to throwing an error. To avoid events forwarded
by the slave to to the master when the connection is down from being
logged as an error forwardEventToMaster has to explicitly drop them.
Prevent ordering issues with save notifications on stop by making the
save list update part of the stop action instead of some unspecificed
amount of time later.
This also fixes the issue of the connection being closed before the last
instance sends it save list on slave shutdown.
Provide a convenience method for checking if the Master-Slave link is
fully online via a .connected property. This is true if the link has
been establised, is not in the dropped state, and not in the process of
disconnecting.
The activeConnectors mapping is from session id to connector, but the
master refactor in 67219ed accidentally changed it to try deleting the
entry by the connector reference instead. Possibly mistaking it for a
Set instead of a Map.
Complete rework of the inventory synchronization to reduce the number of
times the inventory has to be downloaded and the possibilities for item
loss/duplication.
The basic concept is to acquire exclusive access to the player data
before downloading the data. This prevents the player from logging in
to two servers at the same time and getting the synced inventory twice.
The acquisition will in most cases execute faster than the player can
provide input to the game on login, and if the player data on the master
isn't what was previously uploaded then the player inventory is deleted
and the player is turned into a spectator while the updated inventory is
being transferred into the game. This model allows for the downloading
of the synced inventory to be skipped in the case the player joins the
same server they left from.
The synced data is expanded to include more than just the character and
inventory to properly handle sync of dead players. If the player leaves
dead on one server this state will be saved and when the player joins
another server they continue off as dead. The ghost, god, and spectator
controllers are supported, while the cutscene and editor controllers are
not. For players in a cutscene when joining the acquisition will be
attempted immediately, but the scenario waits until the player is out of
the cutscene before acting upon the response to the acquisition. For
players in the editor mode the scenario toggles them out of the mode
before syncing data.
Since uploads to the master can fail handling of this is also added.
The scenario will retry uploading the player data at exponentially
increasing intervals until it gets the message back that the upload
succeeded. Since it's possible for servers to go down and stay down for
a long time the exclusive access held by these servers are released after
a timeout. This means that a player could be playing and or have
uploaded newer data by the time the instance comes back online and tries
to upload the inventory, in this case the master will report the upload
succeeded but discard the data. Instances may also upload old data if
they load back to an earlier save, which will also be discarded by the
master.
Other small improvements made by this rework:
- Add a retry button to the failed download dialog
- Update the existing progress dialog instead of destroying and
recreating it every time.
- Automatically stuff the items from the temporary inventory into the
synced inventory if they fit.
- Move player back to the position they started the download from if
they were turned into a spectator for the download.
- Ensure the player has a character if the stored data is wiped.
- Add error checking of the RCON commands sent by the instance.
Refine the state flow used in the connector abstractions to better
handle close while connecting and resuming. The new logic is to close
the connection immediately in these two states instead of continuing
trying to connect and then giving up some point later.
For the connectors the handshake state is split into connecting
and resuming, new is replaced by closed, and the closing state is turned
into a boolean flag as it's possible that closing is desired while
connecting, connected or resuming. The connecting state is not present
in the server connector because there's nothing for the server to do in
that connector state.
The timeout logic is completely removed, once a connection attempt is
started for the client it will continue to attempt to connect, attempt
to resume dropped connections and attempt reconnects until either an
authentication error occurs or the client explicitly requests to close
the connection.
A new session timeout is added to control how long to attempt to resume
the connection until it's considered dead and invalidated. This allows
stale connections to give up earlier, and swallow up less data while in
the dropped but not yet invalidated state.
For the client side sending messages while it's connecting has been
changed to throw an error instead of queuing up the message and
(possibly) sending it after the connection is established. Code
shouldn't try to send messages without knowing if the connection it's
trying to send them over is active or not.
