My son and |I have experienced similar issues. I normally play single player then he comes on in coop. No problems in single player but only in the coop. Standing in my base beside cargo box next minute I'm standing beside fuel tanks in other room and then I'm somehow inside constructor. HVs tumbling over for no reason, player sinking below ground, getting kicked from game, coq messages every five minutes, and numerous other problems making the game totally unplayable for us. Gave up in the end.
Is there any particular steps that can reliably trigger what you describe ? I've never seen a rotating POI before & so far cannot seem to trigger it. Can you please attach your client log from when this all happened ?
It seems more common when other players are around, my friends are from other parts of the world, New Zealand, Mississippi USA, and Alaska USA, we had these issues on my home server as well, and came to the Eleon server to see if it is reproducible here, and it is. let us know how we may help.
update: I was able to play on the Eleon Studios - Experimental Branch Test Server for around 8 hours today, the first 5-6 hours I was alone and had no issues I can remember, Eli joined me and all was fine for a short while until while warping 25% of the small starter cv we were in went missing including the passenger seat Eli was sitting in, as well as our fuel tank so we were at a stand still. we played through that and Stubert joined us a couple hours later, that's when things really started going batty again, massive disconnects, POI's rotating, poi disappearing, passengers dropping while changing playfields. I did get some video of the different things that happened but it is late, I will upload and post the video tomorrow, seem the common trigger is when all three of us are on at the same time
I can confirm these problems 100%! These also occurred on my server and all players are from Germany! It happens mostly when more than 3 players are near (occasionally even with two) Is the player alone on a playfield come no server crashes!
I can confirm the 1.4 random disconnects. Player usually has a significant rollback when disconnected.
Didn't have the structure problem only what I described on play throughs we had on 2 different seeds.
Can you please create a separate dedicated thread for what you have seen trigger using the bug report template & supply the save game, logs & if at all possible a short video of what is happening & tell us how any of it can be reproduced (if you know). Thanks.
(Replying for @elmo ) To confirm, our issues are mostly as in this bug report. We’ve had the disconnects and random player repositions that @ac_blazer mentioned, but have not seen the structure moves/rotations (might be happening, but we just haven’t noticed). Do you still need a dedicated bug report?
We will have a potential fix in tomorrows EXP release for now please wait until then then provide feedback after you have tried in B3253.
@Pantera, would you still like the video of the issues we had last night(disconnects, poi moving), or should I wait and try test again after the patch is released? TY Also, i don't ever remember pois acting like this before 1.4
As well as POIs repositioning 90° and then rotating back to the original position CVs also do this . With the disconnects to me it seemed when you try to do an action or a new action that means the other players must be involved in or see you doing.
Will do, but we were well into the game when we started experiencing the issues, so it might not be tonight. Thanks
well done, the patch seems to have cleared up the moving POI, repeated disconnects, and most other weirdness. We did have a QoC when after firing a T1 rocket launcher and the rocket explodes We did experience player falling out of passenger seat when entering a planet playfield minor weirdness after the previous issues
