The fixes were successful. zKillboard currently has over 10k crest endpoints in our database, of which just over 700 of them had errors prior to this release.

After the release, only 4 have errors, and 2 of those are invalid hashes.

Thanks FoxFour!

I will be looking more into these as soon as possible to see if they are just broken killmails or if my endpoint is broken.

The Int64/String dual-property thing was mentioned back during the AT CREST trial.

Hey guys,

So with yesterdays release when I attempted to fix the issue with Sleepers and other factions while I did test with factions and making sure that worked I failed to test what happens when there are multiple attackers. The problem basically comes down to me comparing a string to int when checking if someone is in a corporation or not. You can guess how well that went, a whole lot of false negatives.

I have a patch ready to go, however it is going to have to wait until Monday. While I know how much this affects you third party guys it's still not really an emergency and deploying anything but emergency patches on a Friday is... well not desired.

So Monday will get this fix out and hopefully return things to good. I am also in the process of getting a better test script setup that will use a random selection of killmails from TQ to hopefully find these problems sooner... but even then since the corp field is optional I would have had to see it.

TL;DR: I r did dumb dumb and will have a fix out Monday.

Just as an update, the most recent hotfix was deployed today and we seem to be good for the most part.

I was presented with a potential issue though: https://zkillboard.com/detail/36931325/

The NPC in there, which appears to just be a torpedo, has no corporation listed. I don't know why this would be happening after a quick look over the code but I will continue to dig and see if I can find out why.

If you have any other examples of issues or broken things with the CREST killmails endpoint please let me know. It has been a bit of a rough launch and I apologize for that but I am hoping we are through the worst of it now. Thank you for all your patience.

Some kills are just bad in game. Like one of the people on my Dread loss has no ship

Which makes this all the harder. Killmails are so unreliable right now that I basically have to make everything about them optional and add way more if statements than I ever wanted to.

There are rules on the forum saying 'no killboard links, unless you're in crime and punishment'

But we're living to the spirit of the rule (don't troll and gloat), if not the word Smile

is there an easy way to get the crest api endpoint link from the old api killlog? would be cool to have ONE endpoint to get killmails for posting manually (via crest endpoint) and via old crappy api thingy

im not asking you to implement it because its bullshit to work on that old api anymore imo... ( or maybe its just a rly tiny change that takes only 5 mins :3 )

but afaik this is how the endpoint link is build:
http://public-crest.eveonline.com/killmails/kill-id/some-magic-hash/

we get the kill ID from the old api.... so thats no problem. but what about the hash? how is that generated? is there an easy way to generate the hash out of the information from the old API?

i like the fact that there are item names in the crest api... so i dont have to maintain a stupid item table in my DB \o/

Kinda suits the SP trading discussion (lyrics in description)

At this point in time we are not ready to say what the hash is, and getting it in the old API is a bit tricky. So no, not at this time. Sorry. :(
