Amusing users online number

shows one. so it must just be me. everyone else here isnt real.
When it's only showing one user online, and you get a new notification that there's been a purchase in your shop.
Ghosts have needs, too, you guys.
just checking to see if staff is also aware there are other "counter" type issues, such as lifetime sP made in shops (everything is showing at zero), that started at the same time (kinda assuming it must have something to do with same issue but not sure)
Not the same issue actually! But yes they are aware. It was disabled on purpose because they are working on something, but Bug has said the data is safe.

A fix has been pushed. Please allow a couple hours for the numbers to slowly move back to normal :)

Thanks, bb.
All good things must come to an end. This has certainly provided a degree of amusement the past day. XD
Mine says there’s 420 online. Are you guys stereotyping me because I live in Humboldt County?! ;)

As they're beginning to come back from the Offline.

Is this 100% fixed? I haven't seen the users online go past 300-400 since this happened. Even during peak popularity hours where there would be up to 700 people it will only say less than 500.

I was wondering about that too. Was it overreporting before or is it underreporting now?
It's currently under-reporting a bit. Prior to being broken, it was accurate. The full story is that it was disabled while trying to troubleshoot lag. Normally it runs on every page view, which is a lot. When I brought it back, I rate-limited it, so it will under-report a bit but still be a decent estimate. I'm going to adjust this limit though because it looks like it's been off by over a hundred so I probably overshot this lol.
We do have a proper solution to implement in the longer term, that will actually give accurate numbers again without being inefficient - it'll take time but it's on our todo list!

It appears to have gone bonkers in the other direction now? It’s reporting 1,724 users online.
Yeah I made a mistake. Give me like 20 minutes lol!
[edit] I am going to keep an eye on this, and keep adjusting it until we have something about as accurate as the old real-time solution.
Basically it's adjusting how frequently we poll and record people as online, versus how far back to go when counting the users online number (like do we count the number of users online in the last 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 2 minutes, etc) - the first number has to be limited, the second number needs to be... much smaller than I made it originally lol.
[edit] Setting it to the last 1 minute seems to be the happy medium I was looking for. I'm considering this fixed for now. Enjoy :)
