    Status: NEW


    Bug Description:


    Detailed steps to reproduce the bug:
    1) Get infected
    2) Let some zombies hit you
    3) Observe infection %


    Actual result: Sometimes the number goes up then back down

    I have two examples in the video below.

    Example 1: 1.6 > 2.6 > 2.7 > 1.7

    Example 2: 4.0 > 5.0 > 4.1

    Expected result: Infection % should not decrease if the player is not taking medicine

    Dedicated servers always had some issues with value synchronization (never played p2p on high ping so dunno if its just dedi thing).

    Its easy to never get tired on dedicated server if you have a high ping (100-200; you can go higher but after a certain point it becomes harder to maintain because of it).

     

    For example, if you spend stamina with any melee for about half ping value before you reach stamina regeneration tick, you spend your stamina on client, but server packet quickly replaces it with fresh value (so, you can go like 60-swing-20-regenerate 1 tick of stamina-65 instead of 60-swing-20-regenerate 1 tick of stamina-25)

    AFAIK it works with about everything.

    Im saying "half ping" because ping, by definition, is time to get to destination and back.

     

    Its a very handy bug if you master it.
