HUD stops displaying and prevents keybind activation while in a race or battle #68

Closed chhhrrriiisss closed 8 years ago

This is a tricky and very difficult to replicate bug. It seems to occur more frequently in populated battles and under a specific climate of weapon/module combinations.

Symptoms include a sudden loss of visible weapon/module timers on the right hand side of the HUD and an inability to shoot weapons or activate modules (despite no debuff preventing it). Fix is to exit and re-enter said vehicle which causes a HUD reset and a vehicle re-compile to correct the error.

The times it has happened frequently have distinctly occurred fighting against specific vehicles and in quick succession (sometimes several failures inside of a minute), so there's a good chance it is an offensive module or combination of modules that's causing a corrupted or unhandled status on the receiving client's HUD.

If there is anyone who can replicate this bug consistently, i'd be really interested to hear about it!

Watching replays of footage seems to indicate at least one of these errors is a result of rocket pods exploding nearby the client.

GW_HUD_NORMAL_ACTIVE = true; GW_HUD_VEHICLE_ACTIVE = false; GW_HUD_REFRESH = false; GW_INVEHICLE = false; GW_ISDRIVER = false;

States after a rocket pod explodes nearby (not every time, just some times). Seems to indicate GW_INDRIVER and GW_ISDRIVER get reset and cause the HUD to default to "normal" mode.
