Out of curiosity, how does this work? I've noticed that bic names in nwn2 are simply character first name + last name + .bic without blank spaces, so less complicated than nwn1 ones. |

It gets bic file name directly from the player object in memory. |

My greedy wishlist: 
SetScale(object oObject, vector vScale) or SetScale(object oObject, float X, float Y, float Z)
vector GetScale(object oObject) alternativly float GetScaleX, etc
Get/SetItemPropertyActivationPreference(object oItem)
Get/SetTint() |

Actually, I requested this function to solve a specific issue. If a player creates a new PC with the same name as an already existing PC of theirs there's no reliable way to tell it's a new PC via any of the get info from PC functions.
This means the newly created PC inherits any DB stored values for the previous PC of that name. Yeah, there *are* ways to work around this, like a forced item in inven carrying a local on it.
Haveing the bic name allows distinguishing it directly as new PC's of same name get a numeric suffix added to the filename. If you store the bic name in the DB you can check for a match and tell if this PC already exists, or needs to be assigned a new unique ID.
At least that's my theory, I haven't tested it yet...

Is this a production release? I installed it on my PW last night but experienced multiple crashes each within 4-5 minutes of start-up so I uninstalled the plugin and it stopped.
If there is any info/logs I can provide to help I'll be happy to gather them for you. |

Sorry for not mentioning that it's an alpha/unstable release
Yes, it'd be useful to know what function caused the crash (it must be the last in xp_functions.txt logfile) and when. |

no problem with the beta - I'd have probably tried it anyway since Chat is beta too and I've been running that for months with no apparent issues.
Here is the log file from the last session:

Hm.. nothing suspicious, the function returned the correct value, I don't see where the crash could happen...
//NWNX4 Chat is not beta since 0.3 RC1 or 0.3.1. |

(using patch 1.05)
nwn2server crashes when a player logs out ... (after GetBICName is called OnClientEnter).

I haven't tested this with more than one player. So I'm not sure if it crashes for every player logout or just the last player on the server. (the "reload when empty" server switch is disable, btw) Also, I can only test with one machine running both client and server.
GetBICName is called only once at OnClientLogin.
...
This is different than the results I got yesterday ... despite that nothing changed since then. I rebooted, that seemed to fix half the problems I had yesterday (it was crashing on client login whenever a servervault character joined). So now, I only have the crash issue on client logout.

It may be worth mentioning that I have also been seeing issues where the hashset plugin is getting invoked when a PC logs out, when I am making no calls from nwscript for it to do so.
