As host, after a death, the weapon bar does not match up with the given weapons. All weapons are labeled as “unknown” when trying to scroll between them; the number keys do not work for selecting weapons. This makes it near-impossible to consistently switch between weapons, an important part of SDNL Arcade.
Steps to Reproduce
- Host an SDNL match on any map
- Start a game of Arcade
- Die
- Respawn
- Try to switch to a weapon using either number keys or scroll wheel
- Repeat 3-5 until bug happens (shouldn’t take that long!)
What I expected to happen
Ideally, as was the case pre-update, the weapons would be properly labelled and predictably selectable.
What happened
Dying seems to be the main cause; it’s not guaranteed on death but it’s likely from the looks of it.
Notes / Media
See below comment for video.
Note: picking up a weapon undoes the bug! Most noticeable when picking up a superweapon; the weapons bar will properly update to the actual, current loadout (incl. the weapon).
Addendum: I’ve noticed, with bad enough ping(? or a poor connection?), the issue happens momentarily when playing as a non-host. For example, I’d spawn in, have the null weapons, and then after a quarter-second or so it’d properly update my weapons to what they should be. Just something of note.
