It has happened to me twice now. I haven't heard anyone else speaking of this thing. All the sudden, in the middle of a game the screen turns black. No message, no nothing, and it's not a crash - if I press [esc] I get the; [reconnect][server browser][exit game] etc-thing. What could be causing this. It seems like such a strange thing. Maybe the server went down or you had/have just a bad connection to that server(s). Maybe you got kinda banned on a mutator on that server and that mutator keeps on kicking you in midgame  (AntiTCC for example) Maybe your ID has been banned by the masterserver, and like most times there isn't a message about it (just black screen) O.o Maybe the people keeps on kicking you from their servers, when they see your ingame nick? xD ^^ |

You're probably right, and it's the same bug as the Main Menu Disappearing.
I probably got a message saying Connection Lost or something and it just didn't show.
I just didn't think about it that way.

I found a few bugs today, whereof one and two may actually be the same one.
1. Going into the shop equipped with, let's say, a shotgun and it being your current weapon,
selling it - you're still holding it as you click [Complete]. You lose it but it's still there until you switch.
(I haven't tried firing it but I assume it's still working).
2. Doing the same thing, with the Axe and possibly other weapons on (unkown) occations,
causes the 1.0 bug where you can sell a weapon over and over again.
3. Sometimes, and possibly only in spectator mode, you can't press [Esc] and get to the system menu.
Well, you can, but only for a split second and then it closes down by itself.
Suggestion on fix for 1 and possibly 2:
Make the player switch to a default weapon as he/she enters the shop.

Yes, if you pull the trigger, it still fires just fine.
As for your black screen, I think that's just due to connection drops. Since there is no message saying "You have lost connection to server" or "you have been kicked" it's possible you just are getting bad connections to servers.

Ugh, that bug has been around since the 2nd offical beta and we still can't find the cause of it.  You can't resell it, but if you throw it and pick it back up you can sell it again. |

Had something strange happen to me during manor. I was being hounded by zeds and ran into the curtained-off area(the zombie spawn point...I really wish there were a clearer way of figuring out which areas had invisible walls, as I tend to forget when I'm focused on running.)and I was trapped between a mass of clots and the invisible wall. The clots somehow threw me through the little barrier, and were no longer able to reach me, though I could shoot them.

yeah something similar happened to someone last night in Manor, it was on the pathway down to the trader near the boathouse, someone was hit somehow got stuck in the map, their legs were in the floor. The only way to resolve this was for the guy to die.

I found a way to reduce lag on the title screen, and make server messages (connecting etc) appear properly. If you click on the 'credits' button, then hammer 'esc' while it loads, you will return to the main menu, but with a black background. Sometimes the music changes. I takes experimentation to get right, but ti's quite usefull if you keep being unable to connect for some reason.
Also, I changed the waves and stuff in my ini, and now (although I have set it back to the way it was before), whenever I buy anything, it says 'Found (872)' or something similar when you retun to the game, with the number being higher depending on the weapon bought.

I get that, too. And I haven´t modified anything in my .ini. |

It's not a bug. It's a product of a workaround for you so you have full ammo when buying a new weapon. The reason why there's so odd messages is because you basically buy the ammo separately to the gun. I didn't define a pickup-message for those ammo-pickups, so the guy on a listen-server (The host) gets these messages.

Ah, that's ok then. I only noticed it after I'd modified it.

Ok this is what I found when playing yesterday.
(early this morning actually)
If you try shutting and welding a door at the same time the infected try bursting through,
(again, not always. It's timing I guess) the actual door is destroyed, meaning you can walk right through it but not weld.
Alex explained to me once how the KFmover-doors are actually several actors.
And so I suspect one or more actualy were destroyed while some remained.
