Was working trought it even with about 20% of answers being cut off. Now it just gave me 6 blank answers in a row. Please help. Now i see why it was ranked so low. Using gemini code assist in vscode.
Was also having this issue. Prior to yesterday, lots of truncated responses, and then starting yesterday, almost every single response is completely empty.
I’m using the IntelliJ plugin, but was able to fix the issue by going into the Gemini plugin settings and disabling “Stream chat responses from Gemini”. Aside from fixing the issue, this also made it A LOT faster. Like I probably get a complete response about 5x-10x faster than I did with streaming.
Edit: Well, while that has fixed the issue, it also made Gemini a lot dumber. Sometimes it’s fine, other times it’ll go “here’s the changes” an give me something that only contains a fraction of the changes. Sometimes it’ll just give me back the original content completely unchanged. So yeah, looks like this might not be a viable solution.
As a follow up, I’ve basically abandoned using the Gemini Code Assist plugin. I’ve switched to using a different IDE plugin which allows using Gemini as the LLM (For IDEA, the plugin is Devoxx Genie). It’s been working perfectly fine. Just as well as the Gemini Code Assist plugin did before it went to sh**. It doesn’t automatically prune history like the Gemini Code Assist plugin did, but I can manage that.
I also just tested to see whether the issue is still present on Gemini Code Assist plugin, and yup, very first message I sent to the agent got a blank response.
The problem starts from at least 2 days ago, lots of truncated code and empty response in VS Code plugin. I switched to another plugin.
