This has been goin on forever with my players and a lot have been telling me for months that they think the server crashes sometimes when this happens:

Race that has a skill that uses +dmg kills someone using that while wielding claws or fireball.

The dmg from the skill kills the player, and the dmg from the shop item tries to still dmg the player after he has died THUS causing an error for everyone and crashing the server.

Can anyone verify that this might in fact be a problem, or is it not viable?

Add in an alive check on wcs_dealdamage, its in es_WCSfunctions, if you believe this is right. I know sometimes an attack skill can loop if a player is dead but it hasn't caused any issues on my server.

If the alive check is coded into the claws and fireball, the theory doesn't work.  I'm too lazy to check atm lol

This is the part of skill in question.  Believe it belongs to Holliday:

Code:
    "skill2_cmd"        "es es_xdoblock wcs/WCSultimates/wcs_dis2;es est_gethealth wcs_tmp event_var(userid);es es_xif(event_var(health) < 8) then racealias_throfly2"
    "racealias_throfly2""es est_god event_var(userid) 1;es est_teleport event_var(userid) 0 0 900;es es_delayed 2 est_god event_var(userid) 0;es es_delayed 2 wcs_dealdamage event_var(attacker) event_var(userid) 8;es est_playplayer event_var(userid) ambient/levels/citadel/portal_beam_shoot3.wav;es est_playplayer event_var(attacker) ambient/levels/citadel/portal_beam_shoot3.wav;racealias_skyfx14"

alive check isn't in the shop_db.  Do you know if alive check for shop items is coded in another file?

It is unlikely that this is causing a crash.

However it is not a bad thing to add an alive check and it will rule out your theory so you should add one your self.

Well my next question is, what is checked first?  The shop item or the skill.  Whichever is checked 2nd needs the alive check.

Well the shop item runs second but that doesn't rule out the attack thing, it could be in the death skills of the player too. If your race uses disintegrate by holliday take that out and try to see if it crashes or not afterwards. I know if a player has less HP than the extra damage dealt it goes into a different route of using es_fire which is the same stuff disintegrate uses I believe. Adding the isalive check on the wcs_dealdamage itself would be the best of idea's I would think.
