Chapter 351: Editor problem!

 Chapter 351 Editor problem!

Lilith felt like she was listening to a book from heaven: "Memory overflow? But what does memory overflow have to do with the Sword of the Brave? Why can I bring out the sword across save files?"

Gu Fan immediately corrected her and said: "It's not that you can bring out the Sword of the Brave across archives, but you can bring out all weapons across archives...

“Mr. Li, the explanation of this matter is a little complicated. I will try my best to explain it in a simple way. The metaphor may not be appropriate, but the general meaning is this.

"Because this Vientiane Editor has powerful computing effects and can calculate many powerful physical states in real time, its resource consumption is also very considerable and must be controlled, otherwise many players' low-end computers may run too laggy. pause.

“So in terms of memory processing, we have a double insurance policy.

“On the one hand, when there is too much memory overflow, we will directly enable the game mechanism and comprehensively clean up the game memory; on the other hand, when there is a small amount of memory overflow, we will use some small mechanisms to make simple corrections. .

“This is to allow players to have a more coherent gaming experience and avoid memory errors or game crashes as much as possible.

“The first insurance is the blood moon mechanism in the game.

"When a serious memory overflow is detected, the game will automatically trigger the "Blood Moon Event". At this time, the blood moon cutscene will be automatically loaded. All monsters killed by the player will be resurrected, and the system will use this to The opportunity is to clear all caches and return the game to its original state. This can basically solve more than 99% of the problems in the game.

“The second level of insurance is the self-correction function for minor errors.

"For example, when a player has a weapon stuck in his hand, throwing away the currently equipped weapon will drop the equipped weapon and all weapons stuck in his hand. Or, when the player has a weapon stuck in his hand, If there are more than 14 weapons and the memory limit is exceeded, these weapons will also be dropped automatically.

“Through this method, we have optimized the game skills to ensure that players have a smooth and smooth gaming experience without frequent errors or even game crashes due to memory problems.”

Lilith frowned subconsciously: "Why should we deliberately optimize this kind of thing!

“If the game keeps reporting errors and crashing, wouldn’t it be able to collect more negative emotions?”

Gu Fan was silent for a moment: "But... Mr. Li, our original decision was to use elemental mechanisms to collect negative emotions!

"If the game crashes and players can no longer play the elemental mechanism, they will not have a good gaming experience in the early stages, and the negative emotions they will feel when being persuaded to quit will not be there. a lot of.

“This is not in line with the strategy we set out from the beginning.

"At that time, if Mr. Li makes a simple calculation and finds that the negative emotions generated by using the game to crash to persuade players are not as negative as the negative emotions generated by using elemental mechanisms to persuade players in the middle of the game, then you will definitely blame me for why I continue to give in. The game can’t run smoothly!”

 The corners of Lilith's mouth twitched slightly, and it was obvious that Gu Fan had predicted her prediction.

 If that happened, she would definitely blame Gu Fan.

However, Lilith still refused to admit it: "How could it be! I am an open-minded and generous **** demon! I would not be so unreasonable!" Gu Fan expressed hehe.

"Okay, okay, let's not worry about this for now. Please continue to explain to me, why does this memory cleaning mechanism cause a bug in Sword of the Brave? Logically speaking, aren't you well prepared? There shouldn't be such a bug. Right?" Lilith continued to ask.

Gu Fan explained: "Mr. Li, I just checked the code to find the problem with the operation of the player holding the weapon in his hand. When we made the game before, we didn't expect such an operation!

“We just set a value for the memory overflow. When it is lower than this value, the game can run normally without triggering a blood moon restart; only when it is higher than this value, the blood moon will be triggered.

“But we didn’t expect that players would take advantage of this!

“Because the Wanxiang Engine needs to calculate too much data, the calculation speed will be relatively slow, which gives players the opportunity to take advantage of loopholes.

"They used the method of getting stuck in the corner to throw the weapons behind their backs in advance, and then threw two weapons. According to the normal game mechanism, these two weapons should not be thrown out, and the interface will prompt "Cannot be taken out." , and these two weapons should be returned to the backpack.

“But the player quickly pressed the menu key twice, causing the system to quickly enter the calculation state and then quickly enter the pause state. The system’s computing power was insufficient in such a short period of time, so the weapons in front and behind were calculated normally, but the weapon in the middle was stuck.

"It is in a superposition state of being thrown and not being thrown, and remains in the overflowed memory. When the player performs a bonding operation, the system determines based on the weapon currently held by the player, but the sticky The result of the combination was that the sword stuck in the hand was bonded to the prop.

“Furthermore, the player switching archives does not clear the memory, so when the player enters a new archive and manually releases the memory overflow state, the stuck weapon will also be dropped.

 “So...it became what it is now.”

Lilith was simply stunned. She had no idea how the players discovered such a harsh and outrageous bug.

 Is this scientific?

Is this reasonable?

Then she looked at Gu Fan angrily: "In the final analysis, there is a serious bug in the game! Neither you nor the test team found it!"

Gu Fan nodded sincerely: "Yes, Mr. Li, this is indeed a serious bug, I will review it! But... this kind of outrageous bug, let alone us, even the top production team in the world will probably have a hard time avoid.

“After all, Wanxiang Editor is a new editor and it has many problems. We can work hard to optimize the basic functions and prevent more outrageous bugs from appearing. This is not easy..."

Lilith gritted her teeth: "But why do you accurately fix the bugs that collect negative emotions every time, but leave the bugs that make players generate positive emotions?"

Gu Fan was shocked: "Mr. Li, you can't say this nonsense!

“You say it as if we can accurately find all the bugs in the game and fix them selectively!

“If we can really achieve this level, we’ll have to hire a ‘bug fairy’. Go and ask any programmer to see if this kind of thing can be done!”
