Summary

0004379: Clients think they're lagging at map starts if intermission screen lasts for 5+ seconds

Description

If the intermission screen lasts long, clients will think they're lagging upon entering the next map. See the attached screenshot.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Start a regular server and connect 1 client to it.
2. Use "nextmap" in server console or RCON.
3. Wait until the intermission timer is at 15 seconds left and get ready then.
4. Upon map start, quickly open the scoreboard. The client will think it's lagging.

Notes
(0023928) Kaminsky (developer) 2024-08-11 12:34	I created a new merge request to address this:'https://foss.heptapod.net/zandronum/zandronum-stable/-/merge_requests/165 [^]' Fixing this also means that there's no reason to redact the lagging icon from the scoreboard during intermissions. Thus, they will show properly when players are actually lagging during this state.

(0023929) Kaminsky (developer) 2024-08-11 16:38	This is now pushed in:'https://foss.heptapod.net/zandronum/zandronum-stable/-/commit/bb6ca03c937076be57e47623afe75b1875e86b74 [^]'

(0023930) unknownna (updater) 2024-08-11 17:07	Tested with 2 clients, 1 with ping emulation and one without, and with some bots added and it works fine. It feels more natural now with the ping being updated during the intermission screen. Great work!
