Dretch Wallwalk Bug
« on: July 11, 2009, 08:03:34 pm »
On our layouts server, which has been based off of p-g-qvm and Lakitu7's QVM, we have an issue with dretches walking. The best example is in this video:
http://knightsofreason.net/~aaron/downloads/dretchwallwalkhax.ogv
Which shows the issue when wallcrawling, but doesn't exactly show how bumpy it is when walking due to the low fps. The server also hosts a Tremfusion mod, KoRx. This bug only appears on THIS server, if you run the QVM locally, it doesn't happen.

I'm assuming it's an issue with a cvar, has anyone else experienced this?

Move the config files out and restart the server to confirm if it is a cvar.
Is it a VPS?  We've seen some screwy timing issues on some VPS's.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

I just tried starting with a nearly blank server.cfg, with the same issue. I replaced my tremded with a different one, same issue.

We are on a VPS, but the thing is that our other servers work perfectly fine. Is it an issue with the old code?

Looks to me like automatic wallwalk pitching is off, but it's hard to tell with the framerate of the video.

This bug affects all clients who join. Also, if you notice the dretch is sideways, like it's standing on the floor while wallcrawling. If you looked at it from the spectators it looks perfectly normal. If you follow the dretch as a spectator everything appears normal.
