BugReport - Timeout

[thiaZ]

Give a clear description of the bug.
-I noticed that I didn't get back back to my old position after a timeout. This happened every 3rd time for me. I lost my weapons too.
What were you doing? Please post this as detailed as possible.
-I crashed and after my reconnect the system didn't move me back to my old position.
Where there other players which encountered the same problem?
-I don't know that.
Was it only once, or did it happen all the time? Can you include steps to reproduce?
-It happened more than 1 time.
Did you try to reconnect first?
-Of course yes.
In what version did the bug occur? (example: 2.90.38 or 2.91.0)
-2.91.9
If you have any additional information (more details, a screenshot or a video), please include this with the post.

Did the "Please wait, loading data" message show?

[thiaZ]

Yes it appeared for some seconds like everytime but it didn't change the position or gave me the weapons.

I can confirm this - had some experience this morning after timing out a few times (thanks to my oh so fail ISP).

I get the loading game-text, and I spawn with the message "Sorry Jerome, etc. etc." but I spawn in weird places, like at the top of that monument place in Los Santos most of the time, and I am frozen and cannot move, sometimes I spawn at the default SA:MP spawn (the elevator) and am frozen.

The only way to then get out of this is to /kill or /q or ask for a fix (which I didn't try because nobody was about). So after you /kill and respawn normally, you have the weapons opposite to what you bought like the bug has always been (Deagle = Colt45, Sawnoff = Combat, Uzi = Tec9) and they have the wrong amount of munitions most of the time. Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Jerome.

Save handler worked perfectly on the night it was made live. Everything restored with no problems. Today I've received the wrong weapons, but no other bugs occurred (the bugs Jerome described above).

If you look at the pictures this thiaZ posted, the first one, you can see the dude floating? That's because he's frozen .. I don't get it, it's not even like TogglePlayerControllable because it's in mid air just stuck there .. usually if it was TogglePlayerControllable related it would do that gay "hanging-in-the-air" animation. Anyways, unfortunately I wasn't around for the launch of the (advertised as fixed) save handler .. I feel bad for me. Shed some tears for me ..

EDIT: k maybe he's not floating ... guess i'll have to go in-game and get some screens myself. 

Also, I have an idea that - may - solve the positioning .. why don't you save the players position when he disconnects on code 0? Seems like there is some code iin there that already does this .. because, sometimes after I reconnect for a brief (and I mean brief .. maybe half a second) I'm spawned at the position I was timed at.

It works hafl, sometimes it restores just fine, and another time it fails.

I made a pic but it doesn't really show much. I also got the opposite weapons.

Umh today i timed out came back and it saved data after it i freezed but i had my weps atleast back but cuz i was frozen i did /kill so i spawned again and i have spas and all other weapons tec-9 etc wich i didnt buy.

Uhm, another save handler bug... When I timed out today, and reconnected, I recieved invitations to join the BB gang, so I joined. A few seconds after that, a client message appeared stating I had rejoined the gang after a crash. After that had happened, I received all messages related to gang stuff twice (gang chat, members leaving the gang, ect.)

Some screens:

Same today ... the freeze thing fucks you right up ... SA:MP 0.3 is also so shit that it fucks your sync right fucking up and makes things harder to test, so a big FUCK YOU, to Kye. On related matters, here is a screen:
