Neos VR Patch Notes – November 7, 2021

New Features:

  • Added engine watchdog mechanism, which will print out diagnostic information when Neos hardlocks (freezes).– This should significantly help us solving cases of hard freezes and lock-ups

    — If your Neos freezes, leave it running for at least a minute before killing the process and then send us the logs

Tweaks:

  • Updated dependencies to latest version (notably SignalR Client)
  • Added diagnostics for stream messages to the watchdog mechanism
  • The watchdog mechanism will now dump the currently processing sync message when Neos is frozen for longer than 30 seconds for diagnostic purposes
  • Stream messages that are older than a few seconds are now thrown away instead of processed, reducing the load on the system during hiccups
  • Add stricter validation for stream message versions– This might potentially fix the random freezing.
  • Add extra diagnostic information to World to the watchdog mechanism
  • Added extra diagnostic information for the watchdog mechanism to help diagnose cases of Neos freezing up.
  • Improved stacktrace capture mechanism for the watchdog mechanism
  • Implemented proper disposal of threading resources when closing a world to avoid holding on system resources for too long
  • Merged Russian locale additions and fixes.
  • Merged English locale fix.
  • Merged Korean locale additions.
  • Merged Japanese locale additions.
  • Merged Czech locale additions.

Bugfixes:

  • World name, description and tags are now snapshotted synchronously during the save process, preventing the world being closed or changed between saving and generating of record breaking the save process.
  • Improved error handling when saving worlds, to prevent the save process from getting stuck indefinitely and potentially not logging any save errors.
  • Fix last async message encoding throwing exceptions on worlds are just being closed
  • Added extra diagnostic information to failed world saves
  • Added logging information for errors when resolving UDP Punchthrough and Relay URL’s.
  • Fixed world crashing when spawning ToolsFacetPreset in world.
