multiple entries since last wipe

Pending 2.0.6

Since this last game/oxide update i now have 2 or 3 entries for each permission group, Some are in smallcaps instead of capitols,

I have lost the permission(s)  for TurretsReborn

Hi,
I'm seeing the same.

As I'm only on a test server I was able to delete all groups then reload PlayerRanks to see what happened.
The groups were no longer there in duplicate - Each PR group was only registered once.

It would seem that group entries with upper case letters in them are the current and valid ones.

I guess there have been some changes in oxide, possibly relating to allowing/not allowing upper case in the group names?
The last update notes include `Optimized permission library some to remove garbage`

 

If you're finding that the lowercase groups are the ones which have all your perms set up and that the mixed case ones are newly created and, therefore, have no permissions,
that's going to be a big pain to correct.
It might be worth reporting that to oxide, in case it's an unintentional change on their part. I'm not certain but I think perms and groups were always made lower case in the past.

All my groups (ranks) are created for PlayerRankings@Ankawi and have always been in Capitol letters and i have had no problem with them being displayed in caps, i have tried reloading Permissions manager and TurretsReborn and PlayerRankings  but still the same, I dont actually know how to remove the redundent groups from permissions manager and feel that if i remove a groupname it will remove all groups of that name,

I wont worry about it for now so long as the permissions still work for those that gain that rank, otherwise i will go through each group name section and grant the same permissions to all those of that name ,

I agree - If your groups work as they should I would do nothing for now.
If you're sure that groups previously had capital letters then it looks like, for some reason, groups have been duplicated as lower case at some point.

Given that they weren't recreated for me today, when I wiped all groups then reloaded PlayerRanks, I'd guess it's been an unintended thing which has since been corrected,
but that is just a guess.
If that's correct, then the lowercase duplicates shouldn't be in use and should be safe to remove but, as I say, I don't think I'd rust to prove that theory on a live server. 😉

 

Keep in mind, PermissionsManager is just a UI for oxide permissions system.
When something funky like this happens PermissionsManger isn't doing it...It's showing you it.

@pookins, (and oxide), my apologies.


I think this is an issue in PermissionsManager backup and restore options.
I guess you've used those at some point?

I'll correct it today and update you.

Sorry - I spoke to soon. I restored a backup I wasn't aware existed, which threw me off.
Ignore previous post completely - Perms manager backup + restore is fine.

@pookins- Looks like an oxide update was just released to address this

`Added additional case-insensitive handling to permission library `


I'd say you're safe to go ahead and delete any lower-case groups which are duplicates of existing mixed or upper case groups.

PermissionsManager doesn't have this built in but the oxide command is oxide.group remove <group>

The Oxide updates "fixed" the issue, now only showing single entries for ranks , BUT it is showing them all lower case ? , but the groups in chat are still showing "correct" spelling so no problems ,
