Re: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] The same issue happens in my mod (using HL2DM SDK base), so I would assume it is a problem of the SDK and none of the aforementioned movement changes. Curiously, it seems, for me, to be just as likely to occur while moving along perfectly straight walls as diagonals and other oddly shaped geometry.

RE: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
Ok well go to this spot on dm_runoff and it repros with pure world geometry. Note the 'client stuck' upper-right hand message. http://aoa.gamemod.net/img.html?dm_runoff0003-client-stuck.jpg Setting 'phys_timescale 0' on the server has seemingly no effect on player movement. Setting 'cl_predict 0' on the client makes it really difficult to move around - reminds me of Doom 1 over a modem... and the 'client stuck' message does go away, but the stuckiness does not go away. Ie you still take about 5 seconds to wiggle free of that spot, but no message appears. There are also some spots on dm_overwatch with this bug I believe.

RE: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
As I read the message below, Tim is saying that he gets stuck messages when the player is colliding only with some static geometry (walls) and that he was unable to reproduce the bug in any Valve games. Is the wall a prop_physics or something? I just assumed that the wall was brush geometry or prop_static.

Jay I'm confused because your response acts like "client stuck on object" is hard to reproduce. If I flip a table upside-down and walk across it that always causes the error message for me.

RE: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
If you turn off server-side physics (phys_timescale 0), does the issue still happen? Also, if you turn off prediction (cl_predict 0) does the issue still happen?

re:[hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
3 things today Gentlemen. 1. This wall bug (client stuck on object xxx) is killing me guys, killing my mod. Everything(1 thing) you have suggested so far has brought no results. We cannot fix the wall bug. Short reminderas we walk along a wall its making a laggy stickiness and causes you to fall or not run correctly. It is vital to the mod to stop this. People are leaving it everyday because of this ONE damn bug :( It would be like if you could only "sometimes" shoot bullets, if this were a shooting game. Guess what that would do to your croud. I've even run through the entire databank in a 4 day sweat to see if anything having to do with this matter might have appeared in the list backlog.we tried some things i took out of there too and no. We checked on the physics shadow as mentioned by John Sheu.no go at that station too. Please, someone at Valve help us out on thisthis problem doesnt exist in your games the way it does in this modwe basicly changed nothing in the player movement to affect something like this, all angles have been checked. We added a friction to the player to make him stop after he lands from a jump...but that has noting to do with this wall hugging bug while running. happens on straight and slanted walls and even on displacements. 2. Also, speaking of displacements, someone had mentioned about falling through displacements while SPAWNING, or while standing on a physics object. We fall through displacements while PLAYING the game...and also physics objects are teleporting people all over the map. Mostly we get teleported straight down, but not always.the teleporting is always to the same spot though. This is another thing that stops me from adding physics objects in the maps. I just made them all motionj disabled. It's providing an ugly way to cheat in some of our maps :( This is getting depressing. How about some more unsolved mysteries: 3. Why is every person who plays the game on a server getting a CTD when they try to change to another server whether they disconnect first or not? Heres yet another bug making the life of Kreedz Climbing really damn hard. Strangely, this did not happen during my live TV interview with the Giga Games show in Germany about the mod when the Moderator switched servers while asking me questions. This had me sweating like crazy when he said he was going to change servers. It just didnt happen to him. Thanks for listening but even more thanks for a reply from Valve on the wall bug thing. There must be someone who knows why this happens. Tim Lippert >>My first guess would be that it has something to do with the physics shadow being used for the player.

This is the wall bug from the eyes of a non programmer(me): When we are standing on these small blocks attached to any type of walls(st= raight, horizontally or vertically slanted, displacements), and begin runni= ng forward with our shoulders against it, we get "client stuck on object xx= x" until we get off of it, or it might even stop on its own. It makes the s= creen jitter. It happens in the air too with any sort of contact, but, also= not all of the time. It happens on lan or Internet
Re: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
My first guess would be that it has something to do with the physics shadow being used for the player. You've looked at the GameMovement class evidently; I'd also advise you to take a look at VPhysicsUpdate() in BasePlayer. That is where the physics model and the player positions get reconciled.

Re: [hlcoders] The Wall Bug of KZMOD
One way to fix stuck on object, is to cover over the areas where it apperas with a 'player clip' brush - it stops the hit box geting stcuk, and the phiscs sytem is then happy. As for the other items you litsed, I dont know where to start looking for answers, other then loading up the hl1 sdk, and look at gamemovemnt.cpp Adam --- Tim Lippert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello Gentlemen, > > I'm Tim "SoUlFaThEr" Lippert of the Kreedz Climbing > mod.
