Launching session or matchmaking into private codes barely works (like <5% of the time) ever since the Dec. 11th update.
Now, since the Dec. 18th update, I can’t generate a private code either because it consistently throws the following error:
[DEP] valkyrie-source-content-live.s3.amazonaws.com returned unparsable JSON response SentryEventId=ec2a16ac96ea439295ee8b62d9754205
The event ID is different each time.
I have figured out that my project had two seemingly separate issues, however neither presented me an actionable error code which costed me a lot of time.
Issue 1:
I could not launch session because of an array instantiation that I guess was just too big in my code. I have an array storing a struct with a couple dozen fields. with all 460 line of the array, I am unable to launch session, with only 400 or less I am able to launch session.
Issue 2:
A single accolade device was preventing me from making private codes with an unclear error message (the one described earlier in this thread of chats.) It was causing issues because I used invalid characters in the name and description, the annoying thing is that it did not tell me why it was failing, and nowhere does it say I can’t use the characters.
Exact name field of the accolade: backslash
Exact description field of the accolade : backslash
Steps to reproduce: Put the backslash character into an accolade name and description, then try to create private code.
It fails without an unlcear indication why. I spent like 2 hours trying to figure out this issue, I hope it at least gets fixed for other people.
The actual string that caused the error got automatically removed from my previous forum post and I did not realise.
The actual text that was causing the problem was a backslah character followed by an underscore.
Like this: “\_”
It was a dumb mistake on my part for including that text because it is likely to cause problems, I wish it would’ve told me an accolades device was the issue though because I did not try launching a private code until a while after.
