Hi all

since a few days now im dealing with a problem.

we have a command /colorme that will color the player with a random generated color.
this command was taken from a code running on a 0.2x server and was working great.
when using it multiple time in a row, in order to get a random color that you like, sometime the server become not responsive.
before posting here i tryed many thing. i changed the color generator function, I canceled the color generator function for selecting randomly a color in a "color pool"
all my test did fail until i comment the line with SetPlayerColor leaving the random color on the text only.
when this "crash" happen , you do NOT get disconnected. you still see all the player but nothing is synced. command do not work , chat do not work AND when you disconnect from the server you are still in the player list.

I had this problem both on Win and Linux.
When this occur the server process take a LOT of processor resource.
in fact it was the first time i seen a process take 101% of cpu...

PID 25378

after my many test i came up with this: server will become not responsive if using SetPlayerColor multiple time in a row.
the code im working with use YSI.

if anyone got any hint on this, it would be appreciate.




EDIT:
I am able to reproduce this problem using this code.

Command_(testme)
{
    new color = thosecolor[random(sizeof(thosecolor))];
    SendClientMessage(playerid, color, "blah");
    SetPlayerColor(playerid, color);
    return 1;
}

if you type /testme many time at some point it will bug.

thanks again.

first bump ever ...
this topic is important for me cuz server do not actually crash, so it does not auto-restart and even worst it take LOTS of cpu ... enough to make other server on the same machine to be VERY laggy
