[Barbu] Arena broken when changing options

Post by cpasbanal »

When developing a new feature, I changed the game options.
I've tested it multiples times on the studio and handle multiple cases in the code to deal with current games.

Yet, it broke the Arena with the message "Don't know this option" when trying to find players.

Is there any easy way to fix this (without a rollback)?

Sorry for the mess,

Yes, arena is meant to have the options set at the start of the season, and not change after that :)
So adding up options can indeed be tricky. I tried setting up all options in the arena configuration. Does that fix it?

Hi,

is there a "clean" process when we want to add options ?

Contacting you before deploying ?

Hello Een,

Actually, I still have the same bug this morning.

I did remove the option id 100 (play Geronimo) and added option id 107 (Game mode).

Should I temporarily add the option 100 again (even if it will be redundant with the Game mode #107)?

Sorry for all this mess,

Yes, we can try that and see if it fixes it. First time we have this case, arena is still new. Indeed it's probably removing an option that caused the issue.

Adding options should not break things. You can just message us after to let us know which option should be used for arena so that we update the arena configuration in order for everyone to play with the same options (otherwise by default the players can choose for this option).
