I'm assuming this is caused by the latency hiding, however I don't know whether it's just a quirk or a bug. When you use a repair pack on something, the health bar will rise immediately, but the health in the infobox and the durability on the repair pack are slightly delayed. This does not occur in singleplayer (which is one of the reasons I'm assuming it's latency hiding). A video of this is attached, as well as the log (Are logs per session or per game? I assumed the former, but looking at these, I'm thinking it might be the latter - is so, -current is testing it in singleplayer, and -previous is testing it in multiplayer. Either way, I assume that is somewhat irrelevant).
Also, what video formats can be uploaded to the forum? I've always had to zip any videos so the forum would accept them.

Thanks for the report. That's due to latency as you guessed and not something we're currently looking at working on.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Okay, I wasn't sure if that was just a quirk or a bug. Thanks for letting me know.
