Game now basically completely broken for me

Recommended Posts

Date/Time: As of 4/26/2012

What happened:

1. I will spawn as a survivor.

2. After playing for a few minutes, the server will change to "receiving character data" and I will have to respawn to come back as a bandit.

3. I will respawn as a bandit.

4. If I die as a bandit, I'm now completely locked out of using the spawn menu, or any keys at all. I cannot Abort -> Disconnect -> OK to respawn, I have to ALT-F4 or ALT-TAB out and kill the process with task manager.

It will do this ad infinitum no matter how many times I die, respawn, or rejoin. It's reducing the game to unplayability as I have to spawn usually at least three times to be able to move or do anything at all.

Where you were: Anywhere I spawn, any server I'm in.

What you were doing: This started basically early this morning. I had killed t3rminal not knowing he was trying to fix some bugs, and looted some good loot off of him. When I rejoined another server later, virtually my entire inventory had been wiped out, save a CZ550 in my backpack, some rounds for it, a range finder, and a map. Everything else was gone -- the two pairs of NVGs, the suppressed M4 and M9, even things I'd looted earlier, like road flares and chemlights.

Additionally, my humanity shot up to a ridiculous degree -- I went from -2000 or so humanity to about 47,000 (positive), and turned back into a survivor. Currently my humanity is at -4, which is nowhere near what it was before, but I'm wondering if the grey area of near-zero humanity is causing the problems. Regardless, it's basically rendered the mod totally unplayable for me now.

Edit: After hours of dicking around, I finally altered my humanity. It seems to have been tied to that, and I can play as normal again. I don't know if such a grey-area humanity is causing a problem, or if the weird +50000 to 0 issue did it, causing it to not know what to spawn me as, but that did it.
