Ryzom API

server itself is using TGameCycle which is uint32

problem is probably in 32bit php. for example unpack 'l' and 'L' both return same value, even tho one is for signed and other unsigned. (64bit returns correct values ofcourse)

just add 2*2147483647 to tick when it's negative. simple $tick+=2*2147483647 should work.

Addendum.

This also affects in-game. On Leanon the Factions-PvP is broken, it says your flag is enabled and will be disabled in 110567 hours.

There might be others, it can't hurt to look through the sources and verify that all calculations with/references to game cycle are aware of this.

Addendum.

Ingame hotfix for Leanon does work but now the time and character API is completely broken.
Does not return any data or "Character not found".

Indeed, the API only reports <error>Character Not Found</error> for any character as it seems. Quite awful for the Ryzom Armory :(
