[Bug?] Autobalance Spam
« on: May 16, 2013, 12:22:34 AM »




I never switched the teams, and got the messages maybe 2-3 minutes. And on the last screen you see, that the red team has 2 more people than blue.

Client: b38 Pretest
Server: OTB Italy b38 pretest

Hm... I don't think anything related to autoswitching has changed in a while, so this probably isn't a new bug.  I'm not sure offhand what might cause this to happen, though.  I'll have to look at the code when I get home.

Has anybody else seen this before?

It happens sometimes to me after a map or round and ends with a kick. I cannot find a screenshot atm, maybe later.

Happens to me when the time of a map is over and someone disconnects at the same time. Then the balance wants to switch me, but can't, which results in this spam.

OK, I just had this happen to me, except it was saying "Invalid team".  It seems something might have gotten screwed up in the team indexes for the autobalance somehow.

*sigh* major fail on my part.  Cleaned up a bit of code and forgot a "+ 1" on the team index, so autobalance tries to switch you to the wrong team.

I'll try to post a game server patch shortly.

Server patch is posted on the main news page (http://digitalpaint.org).  If you're a server admin, please apply this patch!

On what server?  The admin probably needs to apply the patch.

Thats a server problem. The server needs the patch, not each client.
