Multiplayer several minute player desync

Sorry for missing the short description at the top :/ unsure if i can delete or edit this

Thank you for reporting.

I was not able to reproduce this issue in a p2p game with a Steam host and a XBL client.  I have written an internal ticket for it,  so hopefully the cause can be found in the output log.

@mrcatweasel

Would it be possible to get an output log from both the host and the client from the same game session?  

 

 

@chikorina yes but would have to be in a day or two most likely

Thank you for the logs.  I have sent it to the assigned programmer.

@mrcatweasel

I got an answer from the programmer.  I hope this could help with your issue.

First,  did you have the desync in the log you posted yesterday?  Because there seems to have been an error in the first log that is attached to this report,  but not in the log you posted yesterday.

 

In the log from yesterday,  the log looks mostly fine,  but it seems that your network data is not properly being transmitted.

There's nothing that can be done to actually solve the issue by the programmer,  but what you could try to at least be able to play would be making sure the host has his router set up to forward the ports (26902/UDP at least, ideally the full range though i.e. 26900/TCP and 26900-26902/UDP) so it can connect directly.

@chikorina Yes there was desync in both logs, the exact same issue. I did discover today that the ping of the client was over 160,000, which perfectly explains the multi minute delay.

 

I do have port 26900 forwarded on both TCP and UDP but not the additional range you just mentioned. I will try that and report back, and thank for your help so far with this.
