Annoying bug.

[Andyp]

Ok so about 30 minutes ago I just killed a fellow traitor because the game showed him as being a detective, right before I had a convenient power cut meaning he now thinks I did it on purpose and then quit.

Unfortunately I dont have a screeny as I didnt expect this to happen. The game also did not notify me of who my fellow traitors were either. Had I known this was a bug I would have done the record fix, unfortunately I did not.

Of course we all know about the traitors appearing as detectives, but not being notified of who is when you are one, is new to me. Just thought Id let people know about it so be aware.

No, we don't "all know" about traitors appearing as detectives. That issue has been fixed many versions ago. At least, I have not had a single report since that time, nor have I observed it when I have played. If it has been happening, and people are not reporting it, well...

Anyway, this kind of thing only happens when you do not receive certain information from the server, which is sent at multiple different times. There's a point where I've done all I can to prevent something and we are all at the mercy of issues caused by Gmod/Source/internet. Which is very frustrating.

Well I noticed that previous player picks carry over to the new round until everyone is selected.
Would it be safer to clear this after a round and client-side assign everyone innocent until everyone gets selected in the new round?

Have you guys been playing on an updated server? I haven't had these issues after I contacted BKU about it a while ago, and he fixed it.

[C.Mong]

Yeah I haven't noticed any of these issues on DNR, surprised me to hear about this.

[Andyp]

Yeah I was too when it happened to be fair. Had I known I would have taken a screeny.

[FF|NedStar]

Haven't had a single report of this happen again since its been fixed a few versions back.
Probably a random fluke or a non updated server.
