Help Me Fix The Damn Hammer Again (in 2.1c) <--by SuperBi

I play deathball some, but most of my spare time is spent coding deathball. So once again we really need your help .

So I fixed the hammer jam of 2.1. Now we get reports of a new bug that we can't reproduce. But that doesn't mean its not there!

Here is what we know.

When you get the bug it appears that you are holding down the hammer button, however you can't tell when its happening because everything seems normal on your side (cuz animation and sound still play) but hammer (volley and boost-without ball mode) doesnt work. Catching the ball may reset this bug.

If this happens to you please give us all the details surronding it. Please only respond to this thread if you have 2.1c.

when it happens to someone, all we hear (the other ppl in the server) is the bugged person's hammer going off constantly.. bam.. bam...bam.. bam...

I thought we had that in like 1.4. Who knows though, they all just run together in my head now.

Yup, same lol

Although going from the "bam.. bam...bam.. bam..." priior that's not the continuous screeching wreeeEEEEEwreeeEEEEEwreeeEEEEE sound it used to be

Anyway

I'll try to say what I did and attach my log (if you want) as soon as it happens to me

yah.. its not the continuous charge sound.. it;s as if someone is spamming their hammer.

they are tho cause the hammer is actually working, the charge up sound was it not working in a way

Don't know if that does help in some way, but i had exact that bug already in 2.1b, i might also have a demo of that

Well the hammer bug is tough to reproduce. But I did try to fix it. David will release 2.1d tommorow with this fix in it.

I sure hope you guys that download and play 2.1d will let us know if my fix for this bug worked.

Its kind of a shot in the dark cause I cant reproduce it.
