Starmade | GIF recording is being cut short by 10%
Confirmed task for development, LowPublic

Description

Tried doing some GIFs to show some errors in the game in a weapons test, and it seems that only 1/5th the GIFs are being recorded, despite the button (PASUE/BREAK) being pressed once only to start, and to end the gif.

results from following the steps

Setting task uncertain because it could be an isolated issue, but the gif settings are default 640x640 15fps

Steps to reproduce
  1. link 20 delays to each other (1 direction)
  2. fire at the 1st one and start recording at the same time
  3. stop recording when the 20th delay is activated

The actual GIF will be cut at around 18 delays. I tried out 40 and 80 delays and both were missing 10% of the activated delays in the final GIF.

Tester information (Internal use only)

Checked different fps settings and gif sizes but result stays the same.
From checking multiple recordings, I can see that 10% of the actual GIF recording isn't saved.
10 seconds of recording ends up as 9 seconds.

Might still be some setting around there that could mess with the GIF recording but didn't notice a change when I used a much different settings config.

Serverconfig (server.cfg)
<replace this line with the file content>
Clientconfig (settings.cfg)

strange, my Gifs are getting cut short AT 10% their total length or something, far, far more cut-off than what the testers are getting
