Quote: | But... I sometimes get blue hell when I get into a recently bought vehicle, and it's happened when I'm hosting games with just me in (so no lag)
| By this do you mean you are the actual host (as in, host directly in renegade) or does this happen when running on a FDS with only one player? Because if it is the first case then it is definitely not the lag reduction code as that is disabled (well, I think it is, will have to check that) in a shared server/client mode (such as single player, multiplayer practice and a nondedicated server).
Quote: | Most often happens (to me) on Field, with either meds or lights, recently bought from thier respective factories, although I've had it as GDI on Under (Meds again) and City_Flying (Orcas).

Quote: | Yeah happens most on field.
| I really doubt that it has to do with the map, and never noticed a difference myself either, but until I know the cause I can not be sure either.
Quote: | Stealtheye, if you need me to be in games etc, I'm willing to help, this bug needs to go.
| Because this happens so rarely (and yet too often, you know what I mean ) It wouldn't make sense to just play 100 games and wait for it to show up.
I know that the bug mostly happens for me in laggy situations (low FPS I think?) when entering a (only newly bought?) vehicle. It happens when driving into each other sometimes too though. These might be related, but maybe they are not.
Someone told me about the position coordinates being set to NAN (not a number, error) in blue hell, which indicates that some calculation is invalid.
Quote: | theres also this glitch but after u get the blue hell instead of u dying, u return 2 the game but with HEAVY FPS lag
| Yup, I'm pretty sure these are related, as I once figured out how to partially "reset" blue hell and teleport you to another location. My guess is that this is when another vehicle or object is in "blue hell" which for some reason eats up a lot of CPU.
Thanks for the reactions so far, I hope I'll be able to do something with these, although I still think it will be hard to find without being able to reproduce it. Even more reactions would be appreciated though.
