Title: Exception posting event: net.minecraftforge.event.entity.living.LivingSpecialSpawnEvent

Version: 0.5.1

OS: Server-Side Error

Java Version: Java 7 update 45

Description of Problem:

When a player navigates to a certain chunk, the console log posts these severe errors -- first caught my attention because graphically there was a large chunk loading error and I wanted to see what the server log said. I restarted the client and the chunk loading error was gone. But now, whenever I go back to that spot, the server outputs these severe errors.

Please help if you can. Thank you!

[spuggiehawk]

Everybody is having the same problem and it's happening at exactly the same place.

ic2.core.IC2.onLivingSpecialSpawn(IC2.java:2270)

Is it likely that the party responsible for this industrial craft code will be reading this forum and addressing the problem? This must be affecting thousands of players.

[pharaoh828]

Well good to know I'm not the only admin who's having it... Sorry if this is a noob question, but I thought tekkit lite wasn't ever to be updated again? I would love it if this gets fixed... We just left our 9 month old world and started this one new because of chunk errors, so we are all hyper-sensitive to any sign of trouble... and I'm starting to wonder if it's time to move to Tekkit or try and put together my own custom mod pack.

[Omegagrim]

So by coincidence I was starting up a new modded server last night and came across this error too. I investigated it a little and found that is seems to happen during specified holidays/seasons. In the last day I learned how to make mods for minecraft and made a small mod I call IC2SeasonalPatch which in tests so far does just that. It sets a variable in IC2 named seasonal always to false so the offending code is never called. I am attaching a link to the zip, you drop it in your mod folder. Please let me know here if it works or not. I hope it helps someone else out there.

Props Omegagrim! That works a treat. I can actually get on with what I was doing now :-D

[Omegagrim]

Thanks spuggiehawk, I am glad it is working. I posted over on the FTB forums too and there is a guy who made a Hex fix to set the start and end dates from [month 10 day 29 to month 11 day 01] to [month 13 day 00 to month 13 day 01], which will never exist. My mod changed the variable that would be set to true in that time period back to false on init. Doing more reading I discovered there are two time periods. The crash also happens between [month 04 day 00 to month 04 day 04] so I have updated my mod set the second variable that is set to true during this time period back to false on init. Same URL.
