weapon malfunctions
« on: June 28, 2016, 08:28:56 PM »
Weapons like Air shooter, which fire multiples, only fire left and center for me.  They do not fire to the right.  While I was hosting, someone pointed out to me this problem was affecting them too.  It doesnt matter if I am using a mod or vanilla.  Nothing fires right of center.  What's wrong?

Did you accidentally enable autoaim? My Wave Burner didn't function right at all when I accidentally toggled it on somehow.

By any chance are you playing on a Raspberry Pi? I'm not 100% sure but last time I checked there was an issue with them not being perfectly compatible with Zandronum to where it can't do all of the math correctly causing issues like this.

I was, and I had this issue, so I switched to my mac.  Same issue.  Tried it in windows.  Same issue.  My linux machine doesn't have this issue though.  SOmetimes, depending on the server, my mac plays fine too.

I tried both.  It happens even in vanilla.  Would a video capture help?

I replaced the server with a fresh install of linux and a pre-built zandronum binary.  All better.  What is it about the raspberry pi that prevents that from working?

It was more than likely the manner in which the Zandronum version was built, but it could have been any number of things.

I've never tried running this game on any form of Linux or UNIX, so I wouldn't know for sure.
