We just had a server restart & now I'm constantly getting Lua error when I install any plugin & my in game settings are getting re-settled to default after 2 minutes of setting this up. This happens when playing & when reopening the game.

There is a Lua error every 10 seconds doesn't matter what plugin I install. Some players report even without plugins they getting Lua errors

This seems to be for every mobile device since my whole guild is facing the same problem.....

I even reinstalled the game to see if that helped but it didn't. This is on mobile idk about pc

got this as soon as I logged in on PC:


And this was from a mobile user on the discord


Edit: can confirm removing all plugins makes no difference
Edit 2: well maybe, I seem to be getting them less with no plugins, but still getting them.

My Errors stopped, so I reinstalled plugins and still wasn't getting them. Then a buddy logged in and I got one immediately, may be buddy list related. I asked someone who wasn't getting errors if they had no buddies online and they confirmed they had no buddies online.

Apparently mobile users are having settings reset as well.

Also seems like the error pops up when players enter radar range, which would explain why they mostly stopped because everyone who was at the station for server restart left.

That looks like a plugin issue, disable plugins and try again.
Feb 26, 2022 tjgaming8324 link
Ok

Without plugins doesn't seem to give error anymore but I can only be in game for about 30 seconds then it resets my controls & renders all hud unresponsive other than strafe, accelerate & decelerate

Can't confirm if it's plugin causing the error.....

Update - now seems like I can load all plugins without errors so far but as soon as I log off all in game settings & some plugin settings will reset. & i have to set up everything again & again & again

are you logging off with the log off button, or are you closing the app using android? If the game isn't closed "properly" nothing will save.
Feb 26, 2022 tjgaming8324 link
Always use log off

We are working on a fix for the issue with settings not being saved properly.

After update - some settings are still not saved - (mentioned below stuff gets re-setted to default

Hud settings

Sensor log settings aren't saved (proximity settings)

Nav settings to auto plot a route to follow the target

Some Droidbuttons settings (the long press delay) with occasional Lua errors when docking/undocking, using chainfire alias or when switching to another character. Lua error gets fixed on doing /reload on dB but it's very annoying & didn't used to happen but that's plugin stuff BUT I still thought it was worth mentioning (a bit over used But word)

Some Toastercrushsuite settings don't save - specifically the make friends part of tcs. the list where I can put enemy names & friend names so enemies show red automatically on radar. (again plugin issue which I think is worth mentioning because why not)

& the pop-up from the tutorial where it says swipe left to view your missions tab/PDA
& the "show achievements on Google play games" pop-up
& the "rate us" pop-up

This happens every time I log out & log in or switch characters

Hail message also gets reset when I switch characters
