Yes, but that code has not changed at all since 2.4.2, so it can't be a new one.

Which makes it even harder to solve...

Also, it does not occur when using simulated packet loss. This puzzles me even more.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

maybe a code that DID change in 2.5 made something somewhere else change and caused a chain reaction of sorts? :? thats not totally out of the realm of possible, right?

I noticed this bug (and reported it very informally on irc) right at the beginnings of motorsep's changes. After the changes made by Morphed I was testing the bots heavily and I didn't notice this at all.
Again, this happened to me playing locally with a few bots, so maybe there is not packet loss involved ..

As it occurs very seldomly, and as motorsep only changed models and no code, this can't be the cause.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

I know, I'm just telling when I've started seeing this bug so maybe it can be tracked down easily.
Should this bug be mitigated by your patch regarding the reuse of entity slots ?
If that is the case I can spend some time trying to reproduce it.
