Info/Comma separation bug
Overview[edit]
The comma separation bug is a bug with RuneScape Classic's server. Several items, NPCs and locations had their examine text cut short due to them containing a comma, which acts as a field separator in the internal data format used by the server[1], which did not pack data correctly in the cache as result (which is used by the game to pull the examine)[2].
Known full examines[edit]
Items[edit]
| Subject | Packed examined | Server-side examine |
|---|---|---|
| Ardrigal (ID 818) | An interesting[3] | An interesting, but rare species of herb usually found in the jungle[4] |
| Bad wine (ID 180) | Oh dear[5] | Oh dear, this wine is terrible![6] |
| Book (ID 30) | (No string present)[7] | The shield of Arrav[8] |
| burntmeat (ID 134) | Oh dear[9] | Oh dear, it's totally burnt![10] |
| burntpie (ID 260) | Oops[11] | Oops, I can't eat that[12] |
NPCs[edit]
| Subject | Packed examined | Server-side examine |
|---|---|---|
| Karamja Wolf (ID 775) | A hungry[13] | A hungry, prowling jungle beast, looking for his next meal.[14] |
Locs[edit]
There are no known full examines for locations[15]. Although one might think that this bug applies for Soil (ID 1065), Soil (ID 1066) and Soil (ID 1067), their examines really is just soil[16].
