So me and my friend have been playing DayZ together and working together from town to town. Both of us actually play DayZ in the same physical room IRL I loaded into a server one day and then he came in just a bit after. While waiting for him I was looking at the spot I knew he'd spawn into the server at. His screen showed 'waiting for character to create' but he was actually in the server with me and his charecter was standing straight up, it stood there for about 10-15 seconds and then his screen showed 'setup completed please wait' Only then did his charecter revert to his prone position that he logged out with the previous time. We've since started logging out in places that we can remain hidden upon logging in the next session or time we play but it is a bit worriesome. I'm not sure if during that loadin time if we are able to be shot...but you stick out like a sore thumb for around 5-15 seconds while not having control of your player. I searched for this and did not see anyone post about this. I guess this is more of a "hey rocket do you know about this" since there is truly nothing the player can do to avoid this.

Did you take damage from the shot even though you were in the loading screen? It'd be good to know if you take damage during that time
