Summary0002602: Ceiling height updates aren't sent correctly to spectators
Descriptionsubj.

Given MAP01 from this PK3:'http://allfearthesentinel.net/download?file=jashin-final.pk3 [^]'

It has a red door right outside of spawn area that's animated using ACS.
The script looks like this: Ceiling_LowerByValue -> TagWait -> Ceiling_RaiseByValue -> TagWait -> restart.

When there are active players ingame, the door is animated correctly (even for spectators). When there are only spectators, the door is jittering horribly even when connecting to LAN machine.

I can't reproduce the problem. Can anybody else reproduce it? Was it any different in 2.1.2?

'http://i.imgur.com/iS61bMb.png [^]' assuming this is the door in question, I encountered no issues in 3.0 or 2.1.2

Doesn't reproduce on latest 3.0.
edit: nevermind me I'm autistic. It does, just not on localhost - only when connecting to a Linux server on my LAN, or when other people connect to it from the outside. Going to make a vid.

edit2:'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MhE4DsHUVbc [^]'

The exact setup is as follows:
1. I take Ubuntu 16.04.1 x86 PC, and put this Zan on it:
'http://zandronum.com/downloads/testing/3.0/ZandroDev3.0-170205-2117linux-x86.tar.bz2 [^]'
2. I run this command-line:
./zandronum-server +exec jashin.cfg -iwad doom2.wad -file jashin-final.pk3
3. jashin.cfg is here:'http://pastebin.com/KmWYJq84 [^]'
4. I then go to my Windows PC, which is connected via wired (so this shouldn't be wifi shenanigans), and put this Zan on it:
'http://zandronum.com/downloads/testing/3.0/ZandroDev3.0-170205-2117windows.zip [^]'

Then I connect and the video happens.
It's also worth noting that the level takes two attempts to authenticate, and when I join the game it takes about a second to do so, but while actually playing there's no lag or anything.

Does 2.1.2 perform any better under the same conditions?

Same happens in 2.1.2, except authentication and joining are instant.

It also reproduces in a server hosted on TSPG, so I doubt it's caused by the configuration of my Linux machine.

Currently 45.58.113.226:10798, but otherwise can be started using this bot command:
.host iwad="doom2.wad" hostname="Test" gamemode="coop" wad="jashin-final.pk3" version="3.0"

Here's the code from the map.


script 11 OPEN
{
    TagWait(439);
    Ceiling_LowerByValue(439, 32, 104);
    TagWait(439);
    Ceiling_RaiseByValue(439, 32, 104);
    Delay(35*4);
    restart;
}

Try changing the ACS; I suspect tagwait (especially tagwait being called first) is causing the desync. I think tagwait is only supposed to be used with VOID scripts, just use Delay instead. Try that and see if it still messes up.

Both desync. Both are ok after joining the game.

The problem is that when the server doesn't see active players (or whatever) it happily omits sending certain information altogether.

It sounds like this issue is related to:'https://zandronum.com/tracker/view.php?id=4068 [^]'

It would be great if this can be tested along with'https://zandronum.com/tracker/view.php?id=4068 [^]' to see if the issue(s) have now been resolved.

Tested using the latest 3.2 beta on TSPG. The door was properly sending updates to spectators online and the behavior matched my windows server on 3.1.
