[2019] Weigh in: Negative engram points and Overflow Buffer crash for learning all engrams

I've raised the overflow buffer crash.As for the negative engram points, I would like to check for something first.When Server A has a higher engram points per level rate than Server B, and a player who has spent all those points transfers from A to B this can result in the negative engram point issue. Basically, you don't transfer the actual points and your allotment is recalculated for the new server making the user over budget for the new settings. In this scenario, if the player uses a mindwipe they should end up with the correct number of engram points for their level.

If this is not the scenario you are running into though, I would like to know.

In the context of the moving between servers with different engram point rates? That is about as graceful as it can get, it's something that can be recovered from without admin intervention even. That whole situation is a result of the game being pretty configurable. We do occasionally add new server config options, but adding those is not usually trivial.

As for the buffer overflow error, I suspect that's more an operating system hard limit of too many things trying to be processed all at once, that can't just be fixed by increasing an integer variable.
