Bug Description:
Game's stability is utterly broken for the host only (multiple issues)
Steps to reproduce:
1) Host a multiplayer game for numerous hours on Steam
2) Sneak in base
3) AFK for a few minutes
4) Observe the issue
Actual result:
Multiple issues linked with stability are observed:
- Host is unable to jump (unless they stand on a vehicle, or are close to the Gyrocopter/4x4)
- Host can hardly interact with containers and vehicles (host has to aim towards the bottom of the object - very little interactive box)
- Host is "sliding", meaning when host runs in a direction and stops, they would not stop immediately but instead slide for half a second
- Both Client and Host's jump animations are not triggered when jumping
- Sometimes, game would become super laggy and textures, lighting and shaders would glitch as well (recalc stability fixes it)
- Vehicles are slightly "buried" underground (the wheels are 1/4 into the ground)
- Motorbikes and Bicycles are standing (instead of leaning to the side)
- Sometimes, Gyrocopter would start glitching and repositioning randomly vertically (recalc stability fixes it)
- Zombies are glitching (falling into the ground texture + resetting position endlessly - they would be able to attack once if host is standing next to them)
Expected result:
Game's stability is ok and none of the above issues are observed.
Notes:
- This MP save was started on B12 and bug occurs on B16
- Bug occurs only for the HOST, other players are not affected by it
- Using the "Recalc stability" debug option seems to fix the issue for a short while (3 seconds) then the bug starts to occur again
- Restarting a new game does not feature the issue
- File integrity verification did not fix the issue
- Rebooting the PC did not fix the issue
- Dying and respawning does not fix the issue
- I have a lot of videos to illustrate the issue, but I cannot upload them here
- This is the first time I see this issue, and I've been playing this game since 2014
- The steps to reproduce are merely describing the events after which the bug was first observed, I basically snuck into my base, and went AFK to grab something to drink. When I came back, the game was like this

I have plenty of other logs to show but using pastebin is a hassle. Let me know if you need more logs.
I also tried to find the Server's logs following the instructions provided, but the output__log files are not present.
