| Summary | 0005252: Boss death out of sync in multiplayer | ||||
| Description | I was fighting a lieutenant today with another player (and this has happened one or two times before on multiplayer) Over on my screen the boss was killed, but his name remained on screen and the other player kept shooting at where the boss used to be. It's not a major issue, but it does mean that I can't help the other person with their boss if my version of it has died a few moments earlier. | ||||

Actually that is a pretty major issue, monster death is supposed to happen on all clients. Before the kill, were either of you seeing messages about an entity not found, etc? After you killed it, did it drop any shards? Or did it not drop shards until after your friend killed it? |
|
|
I think it did drop shards before my friend killed it. Not certain on that though. Next time I'll make sure to make note of it. |

Ok, thanks. Basically the shards cannot have spawned until the server declared the monster dead, but the monster can start the "shrinking away and disappearing" part on the client before the server knows about it. So if the shards spawned before your friend killed it then your friend's client was just being slow in getting the news somehow (possibly network congestion) but if they didn't spawn until after your friend killed it then it's quite probably a bug where your client thought it was dead but the server did not. |

I've not heard any reports of this recently. Assuming that this is fixed until/unless I hear otherwise. |
