[2.2.8] "leavebug" is a huge issue for my dedicated server

At an un-determinable rate, when someone leaves the server will just outright close, and I have no idea what causes it.

srb2win.RPT

I have the same issue too, my server will simply crash and I have to start my whole game over

It might have to do with chatbug, I've had more than one instance of people leaving because they had chatbug, but also causing the server to close.

That could be. Also thanks to Golden I was able to decipher the RPT. It crashed on this line in D_GetExistingTextcmd...

		while (textcmdplayer && textcmdplayer->playernum != playernum) textcmdplayer = textcmdplayer->next;

So, this issue is likely to go away with chatbug fix? Didn't Kart already do this? If so, would it be easy to port that?

Just checked out the Kart merge request, it's just one line...

Nevermind, guess that already got changed in vanilla at one point. I don't know what to do then :(

Nevermind again, CL_AskFileList may be a part of the fact that file list is multiple packets(?) None of this code is in SRB2.

static boolean CL_AskFileList(INT32 firstfile)
{
	netbuffer->packettype = PT_TELLFILESNEEDED;
	netbuffer->u.filesneedednum = firstfile;

	return HSendPacket(servernode, false, 0, sizeof (INT32));
}

The Kart changes can be summed up as simply not using acks before being connected to the server (in game).
