I did a thing that was not a good thing with Pet Equipment.

Currently, the Inventory page is disabled. If you already have it loaded, please do not touch anything and just close it for now. You will only risk further issues and I will not be able to help you if things get touched at this point.


I had a mistake in a script I wrote to get rid of old Festival items from last Winter Festival that caused the script to instead purge all items with a table ID of 0, which is what all randomly generated pet equipment has. Thus, all of those items became expired tokens.

I have contacted our host to have a partial database restore performed to a secondary location so that I can re-set all those equipment items back to their original states. Once that's done, I will unlock the inventory page again.

For anyone who didn't get to see it :D

Interestingly, it doesn't seem to be affecting our stats. I went to set up new missions just now, and my mission pets were still good to go, despite having snowflakes as their protection. xD

edit: will new equipment earned be fine too? asking 'cos I was fighting an ent in TLG when it happened, and it gave me a piece of equipment when I won.

I had just completed a couple of missions and accepted the trades right before you posted this. I assume the inventory page was already locked since I couldn't get to it, but I was wondering if that is also going to get reset too or what happens with those pouches...

Any of the non-random Pet Equipment is totally fine as it has item ID #'s so it wasn't affected by this. Also, any Pet Equipment received after this happened will also be fine as the damage was already done in the past and isn't something ongoing.

Unfortunately, the timing on this happening was really bad lol. It happened right before our hourly backup ran so I can't use the most recent. I have to use the backup from almost an hour prior. So any randomly generated equipment received between our last hourly backup and when this happened will remain expired tokens.

However, I can probably manually put those back together just by looking at each of the items. It unfortunately won't be until probably tomorrow though.

Alrighty. I hoped so, but it's nice to have confirmation~.

oh dear, so if things aren't backed up, we'll all be losing mission satchels since then? :c
