API error: Infinite loop or long running process detected.

I only have two scripts in my sandbox. any ideas what might be going on? Script one: on("change:graphic", function(obj) { if(obj.get("bar1_max") === "") return; if(obj.get("bar1_value") <= obj.get("bar1_max") / 2) { obj.set({ status_redmarker: true }); } else{ obj.set({ status_redmarker: false }) } if(obj.get("bar1_value") <= 0) { obj.set({ status_dead: true }); } else { obj.set({ status_dead: false }); } }); Script two: on('chat:message', function(msg) { if (msg.type != 'api') return; if (msg.content.indexOf('!cphr ') != 0) return; var text = msg.content.substring(6); for (var i = 0; i < msg.inlinerolls.length; i++) { if (msg.inlinerolls[i].expression == '1t[Catch-Phrase]') { text = text.replace('$[[' + i + ']]', msg.inlinerolls[i].results.rolls[0].results[0].tableItem.name); } else { text = text.replace('$[[' + i + ']]', '[[' + msg.inlinerolls[i].expression + ']]'); } } var sendAs; var chr = findObjs({ _type: 'character', name: msg.who})[0]; if (chr) { sendAs = 'character|' + chr.id; } else { sendAs = 'player|' + msg.playerid; } sendChat(sendAs, text); });

I had the exact same thing happen to me about two hours ago. The API console locked up and had the same message. I have now come back online and it is now working fine. Very strange.

This occasionally happens, even with scripts that work perfectly fine. I don't know what causes it. Usually, hitting "Save Script" will solve the problem.

I have always assumed it was the "long running" bit, as in for what ever reason your script is taking more than x number of seconds or milliseconds to do something.

I have noticed just in the last couple of days that it has not always fixed the problem immediately and I have had to come back 20 minutes later before it is working again.

I dunno what causes it... but I have a 250 line, 293 line, a 63 line, a 128 line, and another 128 line script all running in my D&D 4e campaign and I rarely get the long running / infinite loop error.

I have seen it happen with a 3 line script but then never happen with my 5k+ like script. I think its more that sometimes the server that runs this stuff gets overloaded.

thanks for the inputs. Saving did not do anything last night, I'll check in a bit

It's doing it again right now.

I disabled all scripts 15 minutes ago and it still has the same infinite loop error message.
