Time sync of radiant/dire teams upon reset not stable.

[TimZaman]

Ex (0.3.2):

ValueError: dota_time discrepancy in depleting initial worldstate queue.
at reset (/root/dotaservice/dotaservice/dotaservice.py:439)
at request_handler (/root/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/grpclib/server.py:327)

I also keep getting this error when launch the game.
but, when I disable this part of code and use the GUI host mode, I stuck at the map loading screen and can not enter the game.
Does this discrepancy in the two teams observation queue has any bad consequence, like this stuck problem?

[TimZaman]

Yeah that's exactly the problem.

[TimZaman]

Problem comes from what's explained in the last paragraph: https://github.com/TimZaman/dotaservice/blob/master/NOTES.md

[sijiaxu]

Thanks, but it seems cannot causing the stuck problem, I can not receive any normal observation(status='ok') in my client after launching the game.

[TimZaman]

Yep but that's because of this issue. Will try to solve tomorrow or something

another question, you mention set the render to true in order to see the GUI, is that referring to use the HOST_MODE_GUI mode?

[TimZaman]

I made the worldstate to be pushed threaded now, can you check if this solves the time discrepancy?

[sijiaxu]

yes, the time discrepancy error has gone, but I still stuck at the 'DOTA_GAMERULES_STATE_PRE_GAME' state, I cannot receive the world state message after that, detail log can be seen here #35

I go through the console log, there are some errors, the lack of libtensorflow.so and some .vhcg files, but it seems not the big problems after google.
so how can I debug my problems like debug option and tools? I doubt there are some problems in the dota's configure, causing game freeze and no world state sended out.

[TimZaman]

still an issue for me sporadically even with threaded.

[lenLRX]

when i set ticks_per_observation to 1, i got ValueError: dota_time discrepancy in depleting initial worldstate queue.

when i set it to 2, i got assert queue.qsize() == 0 in observe()

It seems sync between two team caused a lot trouble.
But I wonder whether it is neccesery to keep sync. For me, i don't think so, i just want get the latest tick and it is ok to drop any data that i missed.
