Torrent ID Assigned During Start-up?

Post by ThePowerTool »

How are torrent ID numbers assigned during startup of Transmission on Linux? It seems like they are randomly resorted before the ID numbers are assigned. Here is an example of something I just went through:

Code: Select all

] transmission-remote -tall -l
1 - Torrent A - magnet linked added 12/1/17
2 - Torrent B - magnet linked added 12/2/17
3 - Torrent C - magnet linked added 12/3/17
4 - Torrent D - magnet linked added 12/4/17
5 - Torrent E - magnet linked added 12/5/17
After a restart of my system I have:

Code: Select all

] transmission-remote -tall -l
1 - Torrent C - magnet linked added 12/3/17
2 - Torrent D - magnet linked added 12/4/17
3 - Torrent A - magnet linked added 12/1/17
4 - Torrent E - magnet linked added 12/5/17
5 - Torrent B - magnet linked added 12/2/17
Is it supposed to read torrent data based upon the date the torrent was added? I can post this in feature request if thats appropriate but I'd like to start with just understanding why the apparently random ordering, please.

Thanks!
