Summary0000128: walking Stronghold NPCs desync when talking to them online
DescriptionOnce you talk to them, they just freeze and start to skip from one position to another without changing angles. It looks very similar to the Lost Soul desync.

And they also don't face you when you talk to them like they do offline.

However, they do seem to snap back into sync if you reconnect to the server.
Steps To ReproduceTalk to one of the walking NPCs in MAP99 on a local server.
Additional InformationSeems to work fine online in ZDoom 2.4.0. It also behaves differently there. If a client is talking to a NPC, no other client can talk to the same one until the first client escapes from the dialogue screen.
TagsNo tags attached.

Made an example WAD. Used Kaiser's dialogue sample script from:'http://doomworld.com/idgames/?id=13922 [^]'

There are two NPC actors: A shotgun guy wandering around, and a demon standing still.

Tested with the latest changes and the NPCs didn't freeze and the dialogues worked fine. Nothing weird happened with the 2nd client on the server either.
