Bug Description:
Players are getting/can get stuck in a death loop after dying, which is clearly a game bug. Unfortunately, cheaters are exploiting this to trap everyone in the loop and sabotage servers. However, I’m not here to discuss cheaters, as I understand that’s not your primary concern.
Regarding the death loop, if you search for "plyrId 559706" in my log files, you’ll see that every time this player dies, entries like "read, write, start" appear in the logs, not sure of there is anything to do with it.
I’ve noticed that when these entries show up, the player becomes stuck in the death loop until the issue resolves itself after several minutes of trying to respawn.
We've tried giving affected players god mode, having admins teleport them upon respawn, or having players rapidly press respawn and jump, which sometimes unsticks them if none of this work we have to delete their profile and try again, they reinstalled the game, cleaned the data, verified game data on their side, no solution.
Even when these methods work, players experience odd effects like water levels being stuck at -814, inability to eat, drink, or use meds. Reset their profiles—but this doesn’t permanently solve the issue.
This issue occurs more frequently during PvP but can also happen when zombies kill players or in other death scenarios (I've seen it happen with landmines and bleeding out).
Unfortunately, I don’t have video clips of the death loop occurring, but the problem is simple: you die, click to respawn, and get stuck.
I'm willing to provide detailed full logs, but I prefer not to share them publicly due to sensitive information, is there a way for me to send them all where nobody else can see?
I also would like to remind you all this issue is critical, same as this.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parts of the clips below got cut or covered to preserve players privacy.
Water/food/meds glitched after getting out from deathloop - doesn't matter what I do here, I have to profile reset when that happens and as you can see, he got the water and food buff, at least he could heal himself.
Cheaters trying to sabotage servers by triggering deathloop - can't see anything on the logs apart from "X" player died.
Same case.
Detailed steps to reproduce the bug:
1) Keep dying until it happens.
Actual result: (description of what is occurring)
Players get stuck in death loop.
Expected result: (what you expect to occur)
A fix.
