Spring RTS Engine

It seems like pasting this into spring lobby crashes the server:
*snip*


To late anyways

This problem does not seem to break servers that are running OS that has support for normal charracter sets - like finnish and swedish.

Meaning it might actually be in the libs that TASServer uses.

FFS you tool don't post it here, all the twats will keep spamming it!

Kixxe remove it immediately you idiot. Pm the admins instead.

oh look i was beaten

Here we have another great reason for not using JAVA :D
This starts to seem like so weird weird problem in the classes - yet i will investigate and try to reproduce this on my own :)

Remove this link too plz

I think i am getting bottom of this - its about overflowing the reserved space for a string when unicode is converted into ascii - need to sniff the actual message to the server -

made the report private

Anyone who has hacker intentions (not retarded script kiddy who copy+pastes random crashing textstring) probably knows what the problem is by now already.


So the question is - would a solution be to force a message to be stored as multiple strings (instead of one), to get around java's allocated char/string space?

Or force the server to split up a message into substrings if it determines that a single string can't hold all the bits that a small string of whatever huge unicode characters need?
