WARNING: One or more children of class CAManBase do not support Extended Event Handlers. Fall back to loop.

Now, the list of related mods is probably not 100% correct.

• Car/Tank/Air are broken by something called babe_int_EHs (nice) which comes from @enhanced_movement
  • It would seem the mod deletes / overrides the class EventHandlers { ... } set up by CBA
• TH_* is indeed @thirsk
  • Thirsk sets up its own init = "[_this select 0,4] exec ""\RHNET\Thirsk5\scripts\THIRSK_Snow.sqs""";, overriding / not caring for the CBA one
• Ryanzombies* is obviously @zombies_and_demons
  • This is an attempt at a good definition, class CBA_Extended_EventHandlers {};, but lacks the inheritance of CBA_..._base as needed by CBA XEHs
• The rest is correctly @jfo_park_rangers and it seems to deliberately define empty class EventHandlers {};, overwriting what CBA set up for the parent class(es)

Now, it says the issue is really only with CAManBase, but since @enhanced_movement essentially removed CBA's ability to watch EHs for Car, Tank and Air, some pretty common names people use for CBA class event handlers, I'm afraid we need to fix/report/both all of them to stop CBA from looping.

@enhanced_movement submitted as SceptreOfficial/Enhanced-Movement-Rework#12

[freghar]

@JamesTheClarke Heya, do you still plan to remove @jfo_park_rangers (in the future) as was mentioned on the January MMT meeting? I don't see it mentioned anywhere aside from the meeting notes, so just confirming. Thanks!

[freghar]

I would like to keep this open until

• Enhanced Movement Rework is updated on steam and we pull it via a repo update
• we remove JFO park rangers

in order to verify that the warnings are gone.

[JamesTheClarke]

Both JFO mods have been removed from our Main Repository: https://www.carpenoctem.co/forums/m/26081621/viewthread/16086660-a3sync-repository-status/post/139466358#p139466358

Please test again and close this issue if the remaining mods (Zombies and Thirsk) are not causing overtly problematic performance issues. Otherwise, we might want to start a Staff Forum discussion on removing these mods if they can't be fixed/made compatible with ACE3 damage handlers.

[JamesTheClarke]

@freghar can this issue be closed or are there further adjustments we should make on the server/repo?

[freghar]

The errors pointing out specific mods are gone, but

WARNING: One or more children of class CAManBase do not support Extended Event Handlers. Fall back to loop.

still remains.

Somebody need to (1) fidn out which mod is causing it by starting the game with some mods "unticked" and (2) figure out what exactly is CBA checking for. Then we can perhaps finally fix it.
