possible jumping related bug
Posted: Tue Jul 18, 2017 2:39 am
Discovered what appears to be a client side bug when jumping between team islands on the Island Hopping map.
I used to be able to make the long jump over the lighthouse and land on flat ground when jumping from one corner team island to opposite corner team island. Now there's a few ppl experiencing the issue of landing on the side of the island, not quite making it all the way to flat land.
Every now and then this also affects the short jumps from one island to another, at least for myself.
I get the same results with fully updated Win7 running the 2.4.10 client and fully updated Linux Mint 18.2 running the 2.4.11 client, on a dual boot system, ie, no vm's are used.
Gnu-sense set tankspeed to 39 (default is 35 on that map or at least that's where it was when we tested) and we were both able to make the complete jump. Set at 35, neither of us could. Someone else had the 2.4.6 client and was able to make the jump with default tankspeed so this appears to only affect newer bz client versions.
The /handicap option or mode or setting appears to not be enabled on that server. Not sure if that could affect it or not but the server reports it is not being used if I type /handicap.
I've noticed this issue for roughly a yr now give or take and up till last week thought I was the only one experiencing the problem. I cannot recall what version I was running when first experienced it though.
Any help would be appreciated.
