We saw a similar thing before with inda. Apparently STC have filed a bug report so check ze logs please.

I demand compensation in the form of a vanguard mesmer and Garj noodie pic.

Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

Something fishy is going on.

First need to give the mesmer and p0rn picture the avatars to moondog for non-pecuniary damage because of crashes in PvP.

Re: Combat bug

Any news on this? I think its pretty important if people die on one client but not on another ...

Re: Combat bug

It's a rare and complicated issue. Whenever the server encounters an error while processing a command, it's doing a rollback of that command . Errors are prone to happen in the middle of severe lag and all kinds of bad things can happen during that time (like client crashes because it gets unexpected server responses).

It looks like what happened here is that Moondog was in the middle of a disconnect when he got destroyed, and the server encountered a paradox event (hey how could he die if he isn't even there -> let's undo that -> miraculous resurrection yay).

Anyway we'll do a possible fix for this soon, and we'll see how that works out.

are people Alt-F4 ing when they die?

That has no use since the robot remains on the terrain and can be killed.

What I explained above is a rare occasion when a process that usually takes a few milliseconds gets stretched out due to lag. It doesn't happen during normal operation.

Re: Combat bug

Fix is out, let's see if it happens again.

Re: Combat bug

Good job devs! A lot of bugs squashed!

Re: Combat bug

Looks like not fixed.

Today at around 7:40 @ Domhalarn. They shot me under ICS B. I docked up at the millisecond of explosion. I saw my container appear on the ground as I was docking up. When I appeared in the station I had my broken Troiar with broken modules still here.

Re: Combat bug

yeah a few days ago when -77- & Co. were attacking Novaya we killed blackhorn 2 times ... in the same bot ..... & some where in there his bot just disappeared while its being shot at.

Not sure if its related to any of the above. First time ive even seen that.

Re: Combat bug

that is pretty buggy

he has his loot

kill is on killboard

Re: Combat bug

It only saved the stuff that "exploded". It didn't dupe items.

Re: Combat bug

Actual it is a kind of duping, but as long as no side uses this mechanism with purpose you can't blame someone  for having luck.
And I assume that timing this with purpose is impossible, so good luck for both sides to have a benefit. Better than having Burial dead in terminal and server leaving no killmail/can on field smile.
