Vgstation13: Yet Another Weird Hell-Bug

[D3athrow-Issues]

(WEB REPORT BY: turingwept REMOTE: 206.221.180.138:7777)

Revision

Description

The server lobby menu will not load for me except under very specific circumstances.

These circumstances include server restart, cycling from pre-round menu to round start, and sometimes idling for 5 minutes and hard reseting my client or just idling an indeterminate amount of time.

Steps to Reproduce

No fucking clue but its consistently occurring for me

What you Expected

To actually join the game

What Actually Happened

Get consistently lobby cucked.

Interestingly, this bug also effects round end information, but THAT can be resolved by just closing and reopening it.

Could try clearing byond cache if you havent already

[SGuivenne]

First thing I did.

[SonixApache]

Once again, post-2018 nano destroys someone for reasons nobody understands.

[Exxion]

The lobby menu is neither Nano nor post-2018

Update/downgrade/reinstall windows/internet explorer

[SGuivenne]

How precisely do I do that? Also if this is the actual problem then I know what caused it, it would be the new Microsoft Edge roll out.

[SonixApache]

edge is unrelated to internet explorer
google your question for help

[SGuivenne]

So update: I tried to uninstall Internet Explorer, somehow botched it so profoundly that now windows control panels are completely unable to identify that I even have Internet Explorer while at the same time it spontaniously refusing to delete itself, and SOMEHOW all of this flailing has actually fixed the bug.

I have no idea how or why and I have a sudden urge to drink.

Issue Resolved

[Exxion]

he doesn't know that uninstalling IE from Windows is literally impossible

[SGuivenne]

Excuse me for trying to follow Damiens advice.

[SGuivenne]

So update: upon properly reactivating IE to actually fix it breaking my ability to load steam games off the steam platform, it rebroke the server screen.

[SGuivenne]

So update 2: Upon unfucking what I fucked up in my second attempt and properly doing it all over again plus an update restart, its fixed, I need alcohol.
