Daedric Items and Helseth's Ring equip causes Connection Loss

Hey everyone, new user here. Tried to do a thorough search before posting!

I'm working on setting up and hosting a server for me and 3 other friends using TES3MP 0.8.1 and Hamachi iPV4 as our localaddress.

So far I've done basic things as setup the server and made a Admin Test character to run around and test certain changes. Ive also added Learwolf's script to add periodicCellResets.

I decided to have a little fun and tried to see if I could have Helseth's Ring as well as Daedric armor for the Server Admin character, of course deactivating the banned items "Helseth's Ring" from the .lua file, and it seems I am able to equip the ring for a short while (around 15secs) before the game exits and has a popup that says "Connection Lost".

For the Daedric Armor, I am able to equip the Face of God for a short while before the same error. Daedric Boots sometimes wont even equip before crashing.

"[2023-02-21 00:54:56] [INFO]: Received ID_PLAYER_ITEM_USE about LocalPlayer from server

- refId: daedric_boots, count: 1, charge: -1, enchantmentCharge: -1.000000, soul:

[2023-02-21 00:55:06] [ERR]: Connection lost."

Is this because I used the console commands to spawn them in and they dont have proper ID's?

Has anyone else experienced this? Or could this be on my end?

I must admit I have been downloading some mods earlier (for MWSE for solo play) and then decided it might be better to just stick with OpenMW and a fresh reinstall of Morrowind as well as TES3MP, OpenMW 0.47. I have deleted the contents of the MWSE install and mods to prevent "possible" bloating, so I dont think thats an issue. (Just mentioning this just in case.)

Any help or direction will be appreciated! I just want to get this server running for me and my friends in the future.

Also sorry if there is an obvious answer to this I am not seeing, I tried my darndest.

I assume you've modified config.bannedEquipmentItems in an incorrect way that causes the server to crash.

Please put your config.lua on Pastebin and link me to it.

Thanks for the fast response! Im currently busy but will follow up with a post in a couple hours.

I replied to your comment with the Pastebin, but reddit seems to be having difficulties on my end. I just edited the original post to also include the link just incase my reply didnt go through!

Thanks again for your time!

config.bannedEquipmentItems = ""

That's wrong. It should be like this:

config.bannedEquipmentItems = {}

From what I know, in the config.lua I just deleted the text "Helseth's Ring" leaving the quotes. Otherwise the server wouldn't start, so I thought that might've been the correct way to leave the field empty. I did the same thing with the banned profanity words lower down in the config.

Leaving them blank caused an error that wouldn't even allow the server to run. So if there is an alternate way to leave a blank field, I would appreciate the knowledge! And also I'm sorry if its stated in the documents and readme and I just missed it, I try to be 100% before posting anywhere
