Glitching & Fixes

[dodoman (DayZ) 0]

Hi survivors,

 

everyone knows, glitching people are annoying.

I put this into General Discussion because i don't think it belongs to the bugtracker.

 

So i think it would be fair if everyone knows, how to glitch in the wall of the glitcher, to kill and banish him.

 

Please don't use this ever to get any advantage.

 

Afaic the server isn't doing any collision check's.

On a multiplayergame you do alot of interpolation what people are doing and where they are moving.

So how do you get into a wall?

1. The ingame colliders have incorrect settings, so they mare maybe to small, or to flat. This mostly happens at stairs or doors which you should not be able to open. So you can jump over the wall collider in balota jail doors  f.e.

 

2.You can get everywhere, really, everywhere by using the interpolation bug.

When you are running and task out of the game, the client miss to send new information. When you log back in the server tells you where you are.

This often works with pulling a weapon or jumping too.

Or if the client just lag.

 

Everyone knwos that. Walking .... Lag ... Broken legs or dead.

 

 

 

I don't own a server and never saw some source so i just get some ideas:

 

Idea's of quick n dirty fixing:

-If you miss more than a package, then stop moving.

-Dont pull an update of the server before you made the ingame collision checks.

 

 

Long time fixing:

-This wont work in a longtime perspective if there are no real collision checks at the server.

 

 

 

But please never use this for purpose if there is noone and you want to hunt!

 

Why did i write this article?

I hope the coders get some ideas by this to fix this bug,

 

Some more reasons?

I get killed by alot of glitchers, so I tried to find out how to catch them if they are doing this at purpose.

 

And do you really think this works? So nomore glitchers?

No, i think their will be a 50/50 chance. More glitchers or more honorable survivers. But the honorable survivers now have a chance to revenge.
