The Radio crashes MCPC+

There seems to be a recent trend about in the modding community that involves big honking serious errors and, MCPC+.(Cauldron).

Suffice it to say, I lost several chunks of progress. If you're using mcpc+ and, attempt to place a station inside of a radio it will cause the server to thread dump. The server deadlocks so it's impossible to save.

Version of Cauldron used: B272

I was able to use the radio on version 1.2.7 of OpenBlocks without issue.

Perhaps it has something to do with this bit of the changelog? "Fix: error while connecting to some radio servers"

Cauldron is the new face of mcpc+ (not sure why bloodmc renamed it). http://cauldron.minecraftforge.net/

I'm accustomed to the occasional mcpc+ quirk but, lately it's been pretty bad. I'll be dumping a bug report there as well, when I'm less tired.

Yeah I know what Cauldron is. I'm saying we've never targeted it. Our mods are targeted at forge.
Cauldrons job is to bridge support between bukkit and forge. If things have been breaking more lately, the responsibility to fix this is with the project that aims to bridge the projects, not the individual projects.

If there's something we can add to help the Cauldron guys make things work we always will. However, we're unlikely to spend much time investigating bugs on a platform we've never aimed to target.

Strange way to start a bug report. We don't build mods for cauldron, we build for forge.

When you consider the fact that managing a server that isn't populated entirely by close and, well trusted friends is damn near impossible without mcpc+ the choice to simply not use it isn't one many of us can make.

I left this report on Cauldron's issue reporter: MinecraftPortCentral/Cauldron#1216

Looks like a simple fix involving the way your radios are connecting to a given radio station. May this not become another three week endeavor.

Your tone is incredibly inappropriate for a bug tracker.

"Looks like a simple fix" is not something you can judge if you don't know the actual underlying code issue. (If you do, please submit a pull request.)

mikeemoo already told you, if there is something they can do, they will, but the debugging has to be done by the MCPC+ devs, and in my experience they always do debug it eventually. If they don't have time for it, well, you have to wait.

It's very easy to let your frustrations get the better of you so, I'm sorry if I appeared cross. By all means, look into it when you have the time. I'm not about to make demands for a set of free mods.

I'll take a peak at the old vs new class files, see what changed when I'm free. In the mean time, I have an extensive rollback to preform on a player's base which has been swapped out with a glacier.

No longer valid. We disabled radio in 1.7 and Cauldron is in bad place right now.
