Can't Learn Kibble Table Engram
Good Day. Firstly thanks for an awesome mod. After your recent update no one on our servers are able to learn the engram. We can see the engram in our list but cannot learn it. We have tried updating the mod on the server and went as far as reinstalling the mod on the server with no success. All our players have also tried to reinstall the mod after we had exhausted all options server side. Yet still nothing works. Could you please provide some assistance with the matter or a solution. Our players are getting very frustrated as they missing imprints etc so any update on this matter will assist. Thanks in advance.

Same here... also, after I cleanly wiped the mod from the server (delete the folder <modid> and the file <modid>.mod out of ShooterGame/Content/Mods and delete the folder <modid> out of the Steam workshop folder), verified the server installation, reinstalled the mod (via -automanagedmods - which works really well on all my servers), the server only reports "mod mismatch". No amount of updates (server restarts, server verify, checkup on the server version and update) will help connect to the server.

At the moment I disabled Kibble Table on this server and replaced it by a similar mod, but I'd prefer to keep Kibble Table.
On the other servers (which I only updated via server restart and -automanagedmods) clients can connect, but they cannot learn the engram for the kibble table :(

Same issue is affecting my server! It even deleted all previously placed kibble tables and all its contents as well. Hoping for a fix soon! Will be disabling the mod and replacing with a similar mod til this one is fixed!

die and respawn or mindwipe tonic or remake character alternatively remove mod perform a world save without it with server running after doing death/mindwipe then delete mod reinstall and start server back up with it reinstalled

basicly trying to break all file associations with previous version and establish new ones

Fixed it on my servers (running Linux Debian Strech) by:
- Shutting down the server
- Erasing the <modid> folder and <modid>.mod file in the mods folder (ShooterGame/Content/Mods)
- Erasing the <modid> folder within the steam workshop folder (Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/346110/)
- Starting the server
- Stopping the server
- Erasing the <modid> folder and <modid>.mod file in the mods folder (ShooterGame/Content/Mods)
- Copying the <modid> folder and <modid>.mod file from my client to the server (SCP, FTP, SFTP - whatever you can to connect to your server)
- Starting the server

Update mechanism like -automanagedmods didn't work, best case I got was an unlearnable kibble table engram and worst case (when I also erased the Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/346110/<modid> folder) a mod mismatch error, so this once I had to do the manual deed.

I hope the next updates will run a bit smoother without the need to do everything manually ;-)

Tried everything and didnt work for us, will have to look else where i guess, to bad this mod was perfect. I wonder if this update was really required. Ow well :steamsad:

Seems my enthusiasm was premature. After a reboot, the servers played the good, old "mod mismatch" game again, also when I took Kibble Table out of the [ModInstaller] section of the Game.ini.

Main reason is that -automanagedmods tries to manage the mods, also the ones not in the [ModInstaller] section. Upon start all *.mod files get wiped and updated via steam - and there seems still to be a problem to get the 774762563.mod through steam serverside on Linux.

Also I will definitely NOT turn off the automanaging of all the mods on all the servers just for the sake of Kibble Table. I like this mod, but not enough to warrant a manual check of all the mods on all my servers and manually updating them at least once a day. Sorry, that's what scripts are for.

Maybe it would have been better to have forked this mod into a completely new version (new modid, etc.) so there wouldn't have been the mixup with old, half-old and whatnot files.

ok, i'll say this, i'm guessing nobody tried to disassociate their characters with the OLD versions files your character save is NOT part of the World Save its its own profile..... my point being there is NOTHING wrong with the mod itself aside from the fact existing Versions of the OLD mod refuse to update to the new one... GUID has been reset on the mod itself, files have been renamed to not conflict with the OLD engram sooo there is LITERALLY nothing else to do with the mod. Of Course if its REALLY that much of an Issue you can Wait for the Dev to resolve the issue completely OR attempt to set your servers to auto learn this engram. that might work as well OR remake characters.

Well, when I started up my servers in the way I described above, people could connect to the server, learn the engram, use the table just fine. But only until the restart of the server. After that nobody can connect to the server with the "mod mismatch" error (cause the -automanagedmods can't get Kibble Table's *.mod file through steam on linux). But this has nothing to do with disassociating characters from old versions of the mod or not.

And yeah, my current problem with the mod is not on topic anymore, but as I put my step-by-step "solution" in here, I wanted to also put my conclusion here.

i as well can not learn it
i removed all mods on my server thinking it was other mod but nope only mod on the server still can not learn it

Same here. Removed all Modfiles via FTP from my Ragnarok server, as well as from my client.

Started the server, stopped and added the mod again.

Still cannot learn the Engram. Cheating the Blueprint works, but placing the structure is not possible.
