[SOLVED] Sync Error after a few minutes ingame
Posted: 17 Aug 2008, 20:15
I had a problem with playing the map I made with other players, as a player or as a host. I had a "sync error" at every game on this map after only a few minutes (sometimes seconds).
I replaced my map with the file I uploaded on jj's but It changed nothing.
In the end it was because of the paths. While working in the map I produced a few variants of the map but the engine didnt update the path finding, so it wasnt the same as the path finding generated from the last version of the map, causing desynch.
Corrected that easily enough by suppressing the corresponding path file in maps/paths/
Tought It might help someone someday :D
Also, maybe there should be a version check (MD5?) that would make spring regenerate path if last generated path wasnt made from the same map version.
