quality -429496728 honey

[hpmons]

I filled my bucket once and the number was fine, then I filled it from two other hives and it went to -429496728 honey...

From the third hive I also got "Beeswax" with no quality

hey loftar i think the beehives might be bugged

[loftar]

Bugged? No way, I won't believe it! :)

The problem is that I haven't been able to reproduce it at all when debugging them, however. Not even the secondary bug which causes them always to yield LQ honey. :P

Anyway, hpmons, I suggest you throw away that honey (and wax) before using it. Just by crafting with it, you'll get millions of negative LPs.

Can't you set the database field as unsigned, forcing it to become a positive number no matter what?

Oh wai... Massive LP gain. Right.

[sabinati]

can't you just make the honey/wax output an average of the materials used to build it or something?

Well, I did discover the cause of this particular bug, now. For some reason, I had expected that 0.0 / 0.0 would evaluate to 0.0, while in reality it yields NaN. I should've guessed, really. (And ((int)NaN) is -2^31.) This should, thus, not happen anymore.

Now there just remains the bug of the beehives yielding ridiculously LQ products.

[sabinati]

where is it even getting the 0.0 values from...?

Why are you dividing by zero in the first place? Bad code gnome!

I do recall thinking that I just wanted to try and see what happened (that is, verify whether it yielded 0 or NaN). Afterwards, I just may have forgotten about it. :)
