HI! First of all I congratulate a lot on this mod, it is nothing short of exceptional! I love it!
However, I encountered a problem of disappearance of zombies not compatible with the vanilla bug, I try to explain myself better:
The vanilla bug occurs in the presence of many zombies, often with more players present (I think desync of clients with the server), and when it happens some zombies split, one copy remains stationary in place and another chases the player, when the player goes to meet the copy that has remained stationary, it does not react and disappears when the player is close enough.

The bug I encountered is different: I was alone and there was only one zombie inside a house, when I approached him he disappeared but I still panicked, it was a very isolated place and there was only me and a zombie, so I don't think it's compatible with the vanilla bug!
I hope I was helpful.

Thanks. I need more information and a way to replicate this bug.

I tried to re-create that with 2 clients, but I couldn't.
When I was playing alone on a server, it happened to me as well.
I'm not sure why it happens, but I still think it's vanilla.

I noticed a similar bug when I tried driving a car and honking and that bug kept happening in vanilla as well.

Yes, I know the horn bug, it occurred in the presence of several zombies in previous builds but according to the developers it should have been fixed, in fact I haven't found it yet since the last update (but I don't guarantee that it is actually fixed) . Speaking of your mod, what can I do to help you? What information do you need? I have a big rp server and we all love your mods, I can ask players to report errors, take screenshots, and more.

Yeah sure, a video of it happening could be helpful.
And approximately 30 seconds prior to it happening, so it's possible to replicate the behavior or see anything that could have caused it.
Thanks.

It could also be helpful if you could see if it's happening with vanilla?
I think it could be caused with a mix of high ping and high load scenarios, such as lots of zombies and a player with high ping at the same time as server loading something.


I kind of hope it's a vanilla issue, but if there's anything I can do to fix it i will try.

I don't want to contradict you, you certainly know a lot more than me! I still think it differs from the vanilla bug only for the reports of many players on my server who noticed this bug as soon as I put the mod.
I hope I can be of help to understand if in fact it is a bug that depends on your mod or not, and be sure of it. I'll be sharing videos asap following your instructions, thank you so much for your support and great mods!

Here i have 4 videos from an admin testing to find this bug in vanilla server whit just this mod:

i will put more as soon as possible, what i noticed is that the disappearing zombies are always inactive.
I apologize for the quality of the videos

update:
Maybe I understand what the discriminant is!
I and other players who have this bug have slow or unstable connections, but players with very good connections just never have this bug!
We noticed it because among the admins who tested this mod only some had the bug very often and others never got it, the only thing that changes is the connection of the player!
UattO 5. juni 2022 kl. 13:44 
I just had the admins who are testing the mod do some speed tests, actually some who never get the bug have barely decent connections, others who get it have better connections so maybe I was wrong!
UattO 5. juni 2022 kl. 17:33 
If you need more video or something else just ask to me!
nigel  [udvikler] 5. juni 2022 kl. 18:59 
The videos are private, I cannot see them.
You need to make them UNLISTED, that way I can see them as well.

Thank you!
