Game soft locks on server join

Post by Aleon »

Description:
When in game, attempting to join a different server without disconnecting soft locks the game on the disconnect screen.

Steps to Reproduce:
Join an online server.
Once loaded, open up the menu and join a different server, without disconnecting.
PR will display an error about being unable to find other server, and then get stuck on the disconnect screen. Doesn't crash, but the disconnect never finishes.

Tested On:
PR v1.6.0.0

Thanks for the report. Iirc this is not a new bug in 1.6 and already happened in past versions. Might even be around since before 1.0

I remember it being broke in the past, but it definitely worked pre 1.6. I used it just days ago.
I'll test again, maybe it's just server specific.

Edit: not server specific. Happens with every single one for me.

I can confirm that it worked on 1.5.5.3 for me.

Not the same but similar:
If you go autodeploy to join a server it the join fails (eg. someone else took the slot) the game is stuck on the server select screen displaying the "Joining Server" box.

Same might have happened when joining a server that was switching maps (there were 5-10 free slots at that moment)
