Starmade | Rail entities are not properly synced across clients
Closed, FinishedPublic

Description

Different clients can see different rail positions/orientations.

The screenshot below is the result of reloading that sector it was in. These were always moving so most likely they started moving before loaded completely.


The game can desync between server and client in single player and you will see rails get stuck when they are working as far as the server is concerned.

Unfortunately still seems to happen.
There was another issue similar to this that caused rail entities to appear a little bit rotated to the left/right. That does seem to be fixed as far as I can see.

As you can see in the screenshot, my 2nd client did not see what the 1st client saw (which was a working rail entity)

The ones that are not blocked have synced movements but their position is offset.

Awesome, seems to be fixed. Tried out with 3 clients at once. Unloading/loading the sector is fine too.
