[2.0.43] Screen jumps when moving camera with mouse

Post by floh4ever »

All 3 of us have noticed really annoying flickering when dragging around the screen with the mouse but it does not happen while scrolling with WASD.
I looked around quite a bit but could not find a solution for this specific behaviour. It only started after the game progressed a bit. We didn't notice the problem until we were like 3-4 Planets in. No Mod, just base game and expansion. The issue got progressively worse.

I've made a short recording of the situation accuring during mouse movement and it not happenign during WASD movement.

After checking the video frame by frame I noticed that for just a single frame the view jumps about this much:

and then jumps back to the position it should be at.

Let me know if I can provide any information.

Savegame: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zuj9OL ... sp=sharing

Update 1:
It also seems like the bug gets progressively worse as the server runs because I have just restarted the server and the bug does not seem to appear yet. That would explain why we only noticed it after playing for a while. I will try to figure out how long it takes for the issue to appear. It took about 5 hours after server restart to appear again.

Update 2:
It seems that server restarts don't really help anymore as the issue comes back less than an hour after restarts. It seems to be influenced by how much is going on but this is just guessing at this point.

Post log and save file and add the version to the title please, see 3638. Does the problem also occur when running the save in singleplayer?

Sorry, my bad. I've attached the required files and tested the savegame in singleplayer where the issue does not appear.

I'll attach the server-side logs shortly after posting this.

Hello! Thanks for the report, video, logs, and saves. I believe this is a duplicate of 122891, which should have been fixed in 2.0.44. However, if you're still experiencing this issue in a version >= 2.0.44, please let us know by updating this thread or opening a new bug report.
