[Bug] Scoreboard in BR

Postby Breli » Sat Jul 22, 2006 5:41 pm

Hi,

I have lost overview of all the bugs and don't know whether we already have this one on the list:

During todays BR session I recognized that the scoreboard is reset each time a player switches a team or leaves a team. I haven't tried this in TDM or RTP.

Yeah, I had seen this kind of bugs, too in BR, for a while.
However, this is really tricky to trigger it, everytime.
I mean, by switching teams, it did not trigger.

I just played a bit with bots, with WQ3 b2.1testpatch01, but I still do not really know in what case it happens :/
When displaying the scoreboard, it sure happens that scores drop to 0, but a few seconds after, the scoreboard shows the right number ... strange.

Of course, by spectating, you sure lose your score :) ... but that is not an issue.
Hmm, some more detective work is needed, though

I was thinking Torhu fixed this? Eh, it still works better than it used to.

Can't remember fixing anything related to this. Except for the problems caused by the first person spectator mode in BR, but they were only present in some test patches from last year.

I think I was unable to reproduce this bug in testing, so I gave up on figuring out what was going on. :|

Ok, after some research, I manage to fix that one.
The score reset happened when spectating one of your mate, in first person, and when your mate die.
It is important that you should be spectating after you have joined a team.

For now, I let a debug broadcast message to notify players when the event occurs.
Don't panic if you will later see something like :

DEBUG: Manchot 's score (99) has been kept

(Just in my dream about the 99 score :D)
