Info:
When testing between 3.16 and 3.18, the download of
incomplete pieces created with 3.16 will download and complete as normal. However new pieces will not be created. Downgrading to 3.16 will fix this issue, 3.16 works fine.
(3.18) I checked my pending torrents and they have about 3-5 pieces still in progress waiting for seeders between about 30 torrents.
However the pieces monitoring tool shows a steady 11k piece count and 2.5gb piece bytes that went down as tixati downloaded to already created pieces made when i downgraded to 3.16.
Pieces pending save count stays at 5 never changing and pieces pending save bytes is about 10m not changing
Doubling all of the piece limiter settings in 3.18 did not help.
On 3.18 peers will connect as normal. Sometimes network nic will crash when downloading (only happened on 3.18 so far, but I will update later if it happens on 3.16 too). Uploads function normally.
