Occasional game freeze upon restarting on gem hunt #43

Open dflat2 opened 3 months ago

dflat2 commented 3 months ago

How to reproduce:

Play MBHaxe Ultra.
Start a gem hunt game on Sprawl (the freeze also occurred on Zenith and a few other maps iirc).
Until the bug is triggered, do Esc > Restart.
Game will eventually freeze, takes usually less than 10 restarts.

It seems to happen only in gem hunt.

Related to master server connectivity.

I forgot to say that it happens in single player gem hunt, so I don't think it's related to server connectivity. Were you able to reproduce it?

Ok replicated the bug. Turns out one of multiplayer bugs relating to player spawns got carried over. Game keeps track of spawn points that are occupied so players don't spawn on each other. But that variable doesn't get reset on restart causing this bug. Basically game ran out of all the possible spawn points to spawn the marble at since it doesn't reset.
