OK, UPDATE:

I have noted a full message: "You have been rejected because there is an identical player already in the game." I checked it deep and:

After multi game with someone, after debriefing, when we're already in the game room I'm dropped from the game and this message pop up, then I can't join the game cause this message pop up still again and again. Restarting FS give no effect - still can't join. Waiting give no effect - still can't join. Host must rehost game again. It's annoying and tiring.

What is interesting, I can't get a screenshot when this message pop up - pressing PrintScreen give no screenshots. But when I close it , the screenshoots are working back.Same with other pop-ups too.

Just wanted to add that this is not just an isolated case, many (all?) of us have the same problem.

I've seen it. I suspect it's a latency issue of some sort (like the double respawn bug) but as such I can't reproduce it on my LAN. I'll keep an eye out for it though when I go through the code next.

I'll take a look into this.

Perhaps we need to impliment some sort of heart-beat system, that way the server can drop people aren't there anymore?

by the way, do you happen to know what your latency was?

thanks

I had this happen to me today with a host having ping < 70ms.
Attached the multi.log from the time being, in case it helps any.

* BUMP *

Is this still a problem (with 3.6.10 builds)?

No idea. Would need to try it out, maybe next weekend if we have a 3.6.10 host up.
The last time I've seen it was with the 28 Oct 07 Xt build, but thats ofcourse quite old already.

EDIT: oops, the one I saw it with was not the 28-Oct-07Xt build, but something a lot older.

No opportunity to try this with 3.6.10 yet. In the mean time, heres some details on reproducing it on 3.6.9.

At debrief screen after a mission has ended:
- client: don't accept the mission score, just wait in debrief (dunno if accepting makes any difference though)
- host: exit the game
- host: host a new game
- client: exit the old debrief screen (seeing the "host has ended the game" message)
- client: try to join the new game => "identical player already in the game"

Ok, this really seems to be fixed in 3.6.10 (yay!). Or at least I was unable to reproduce it with the simple method described in the note above.

LOL, this was confirmed as no longer an issue over four years ago. Why did nobody close it?
