Description

Building a turret on a ship during normal play (not shipyard). At a certain point the turret seemed stuck, even though there was no block causing this. Undocking the turret and redocking it, caused it to dock at a 45° angle.

Another player was in the top side of the turret while it was docked by me, who was in the base. The other player could move the turret normally for him, which would suggest it was a graphical issue. After he came outside of the turret and entered it again, the did see the same thing I did.

After undocking the turret again, and redocking it (collissions happened during undocking), it was normal & working again.

Edit: after relogging to get the server version, I saw this:


I undocked the turret, it came loose from the ship and started floating away. I rotated it and fired the docking beam, and got a crash (sent a crash report).

At this point I had to quit the game and restart.

Another edit, sorry. The server version is 0.199.466, I can't make out the numbers very well.

Steps to reproduce

Unsure, sorry. I think it has to do with the gun-part of the turret moving while the base was being docked. However we didn't have the opportunity to test this theory.

This happened on the testing server between 20 & 21 GMT+1, the other player's name is troll82.

Tester information (Internal use only)

It's caused by multiple players trying to control the same entity. The player in the turret barrel its input requires the turret base to also move with it. But the player's input from inside the turret base fights against it which leads this issue.


For one player it appears normal, for the other one the base doesn't move for him which makes the turret barrel seems disjointed.

An old bug, but I can't find a task about it so I'm assuming it isn't reported, or it was back on Redmine and didn't get exported.
