| Summary | 0026438: Instigators on MP client has issues | ||||
| Description | The host is reporting reasonable times, the client is showing giant negative numbers. Here's the code InstigatorPerUnitBaseInfo localData = entity.GetExternalBaseInfoAs<InstigatorPerUnitBaseInfo>(); .... if ( localData != null ) buffer.AddSecondsRemaining( localData.TimeForNextEffect - World_AIW2.Instance.GameSecond ); else buffer.Add( "?s" ); I suspect the TimeForNextEffect is 0 for some non-obvious reason | ||||

I am very intrigued by the fact that the Instigator PerUnitData on the client doesn't seem to have the expected values |
|
|
What seems to be happening is that the Instigators DeepInfo is updating the TimeForNextEffect on the host, but that value isn't being sync'd to the client. So for the first time the Instigator base's effect happens, it looks fine on the client. But since the value is never updated, the notitfication numbers get all wonky |

Thanks! * FlagForForcedFullSyncToClients_FromHost() is now called on instigators after their times are updated on the host, so that clients will see the new info. ** This is a good example of the MP model doing exactly what it is supposed to, but the code for the faction not being very MP-oriented and so the client seeing something suboptimal. ** Most things like this are automatically handled by the mouseover from the client calling a request, but since this is an indireect notifier and not a direct mouseover, the host code has to be updated. ** This is untested, but should work just fine. |
