Summary0002361: Floatbob items respawn incorrectly after Duel Countdown
DescriptionThis occurs both online and offline. If you have an item with the floatbob property on a floor below or above 0 height, the item will appear higher or lower than it should be after the duel countdown resets the map. If item respawn is on then item will respawn at the correct height. I have attached a test map that illustrates this.
Steps To Reproduce1. Download floattest.wad
2. Start on map01 and observe the float behavior
3. Make sure the mode is in duel and the duel countdown is greater than 1
4. add a bot
5. After the countdown resets the map, the floating is now incorrect
6. Spectate and rejoin if nothing changes

I tested the build locally and on a LAN server. The floating items didn't desync or float incorrectly at all.

I read the comments on that pull request and I tried for a good while to try to invoke the code that follows this if statement:

// If this object belongs to someone's inventory, and it originally spawned on the
// level, respawn the item in its original location, but don't take it out of the
// player's inventory.
    if (( pActor->IsKindOf( RUNTIME_CLASS( AInventory ))) &&
        ( static_cast<AInventory *>( pActor )->Owner ))


All floatbob items lived through countdowns, resets, ACS Resets, offline, online, custom inventory items, heretic timebomb, on floors, on 3d floors, z-height or no z-height, item respawn off or on.

I would say it's safe to say that single change is all that's needed to fix the bug. If someone devises a case where bobbing breaks with the fix, we at least already know what to change.

Brought this up in the latest dev meeting as it recently came to my attention due to affecting a Jumpmaze X map. Proposed a fix that ended up the same as Dusk's but covered more bases (nightmare respawns and some obscure CCMD). We'll see what happens next meeting.
