Tank Crew - Merging Tanks

[DD_Friar]

Salute,

 

Had this oddity today on line on our closed squad server, using Prokhorovka map.

 

Two tanks were able to drive "into" each other.

It's the end times! Cats and dogs living together!

@DD_Friar, did you record the track?

[DD_Friar]

Sorry, unfortunately not. (will remember to do so for future bug reports)

I will set up a session with my squad mates to see if we can replicate it and record it.

The two players involved one is based in Sweden, the other in the UK.

 

It MAY have been a "lag blip" I suppose (if there is such a thing), as I am sure someone else got right up behind another tank in the same session and gave them a nudge for fun. 

The server is a commercial rented one and generally we never have any speed issues with it.

 

Salute.

Ok, we have managed to re-create the issue (but good luck on getting to the bottom of it!).

These results were achieved on a different server (one put up by Player C on his own machine)

Mods are on. Not all players will have been running the same set of mods, but all three were running the same custom icon set we have made for our squad. Just a coloured shape above the unit, blue friendly, red enemy, no names, or range etc.

There are 3 players involved. Players A and C are the same players in the original screen shot.

Player A (green T34 based in Sweden, if that is relevant)

Player B (rust coloured T34, based in UK)

Player C (Panther, based in UK)

 

Player A driving through Player B - Normal "crash" detected. Two physical objects hitting each other.

Player A driving through Player C - Can Happen

Player B driving through Player A - Normal "crash" detected. Two physical objects hitting each other.

Player B driving through Player C - Normal "crash" detected. Two physical objects hitting each other.

Player C driving through Player B - Normal "crash" detected. Two physical objects hitting each other.

Player C driving through Player A - Can Happen

 

This took pace within a MCU Flag area but has also been repeated with the same results outside of the area (just in case that was a factor)

 

I have MP4 video and the track files but do not know how to get them to you due to the size?

If you can...put them on google drive and get a link to download them...and PM him the links for the files.

Salute!

Any update on this issue at all please

Has it been accepted into the fix programme?

Did any dev get to the bottom of what was causing it?
