Players are randomly voided when streaming enabled pauses. When the player camera returns from the void the Align Position/Orientation no longer function.
Unaware of the cause, and unable to consistently repro.
Can you provide a repro place? If you have an experience with just flying on your broomstick and you interrupt the networking to force a pause can you repro?
What do you mean by “voided” and “returns from the void”? Just trying to understand what you are referring to.
By “voided” I’m referring to when the gameplay paused warning appears on the player screen. Camera is placed in a position I’m assuming to be a void far away from the character.
Also, the bug only seems to occur whenever the streaming is paused AND the camera shows a position inconsistent from the actual streaming area. If the streaming warning appears on the screen and the character is still visible in the background, the bug doesn’t repro.
Due to this, I’m not able to easily reproduce the bug, so I don’t think a repro place file on a baseplate would be helpful, as I would probably have to attach a file of the full environment.
Are you doing anything unusual with the camera or replication focus? I’ve never seen the camera change when the player is paused like shown in your video.
When players die, replication focus is set to a part for a death screen. When the character is re-added this is cleaned up by setting the replication focus to nil.
Before the pause is show there is a brief:
that is visible. Is it possible the replication focus is being set right before the pause occurs?
If you use Shift-F3, followed by Shift-1 three times you should be able to get a debug streaming UI that looks something like this:
I’m curious what that shows when the issue occurs.
I didn’t notice the text being displayed before the pause. That’s from a PromptShown connection, meaning the player was briefly placed near the specified NPC. Even more confusion now as this NPC’s location is not only far from the character position, but at a completely random point in the map.
Going to try to repro the bug w/ your instructions and see what’s displayed. May take a while.
This was from a couple of months ago. I am unable to reproduce this bug myself, most likely due to my computer specifications (I’m assuming it could be related to FPS higher than 240)
Thing to note: Pause causes fps to spike really high (inf), align position either is deleted from the player or just stops functioning
This looks like it could potentially be caused by a NaN error? If the speed or position of your character gets set to NaN it sometimes does exactly this, flashing your camera and then making you lose network owner of your own character for a brief moment (so in this case, a client sided body mover wouldnt work). Maybe check your flying code?
