hey guys i saw a rocket that was staying in the air and I couldn't pick it up.

Here is the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbwfAAmQMaY


It happend on PLanetnexuiz.de svn so i guess It is caused by SVN so for developers and fixers i have the job for you.

Looks like a packet loss situation. Were you throwing the rocket just before it happened or someone died?

I guess somebody throw it away but not me

Ah yes. I've seen this happen before as well.

I also see projectiles flying along normally -----

Then suddenly they seem to stop, and dissapear after rotating 90 degrees always downward | |

Such things happen when client and server get largely out of sync due to packet loss.

I don't think it's a packet loss

I found a bug in nexuiz.
It's almost the same as last time.
A Rocket launcher that i can't take.
More Info: it was at planetnexuiz.de Public Server at facing worlds nex.

I made a video about it : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL5yPgInl_E

The bug can't get fixed with that poor info.

Make a save game when it appears again (on server console: save foo.sav), then put the foo.sav file online somewhere.

Still, I'd bet it is packet loss. Note that this is a thrown RL (it's not at the standard location), yet it did not fade out. One way to see if it was PL is to disconnect and reconnect. If the RL is gone then, it was PL.

its packet loss , and you have got packet loss. I can see it if i watch your video
and I know what i'm talking about

Div has already posted: type in console save foo.sav when this happens, where foo is the name of the save.

i read that but still don't know what that will do

It will create a save game (write the current state of the game to disc).. well just sort of, loading it again will not work but it will be useful for debugging what happend.
