Hi, i desynced then game did some local save, and reconnected, first it said - downloading 17MB ... that looked well, then ... guess it started increasing size and i closed it, after i did see



after i restarted game, it downloaded correctly, difference in size is quite obvious

The download window does not tell you how big the complete download is, it just tells you how much it already downloaded. The file is bigger when created for a desync report because it contains additional information to diagnose the issue.
NaB.

Desync report was not created (we checked on both computers), also sorry to tell you, but like i said, it didn't end, it was going up by 1 MB every 2second, starting at 17MB.
there was definetly something wrong with the server save after desync, since when game created temporal local copy, it had just 12MB.


also if you look to log i uploaded, you can see than game is in desync loop, which is probly why download was going idenfinetly.

It could not, you did not finish the download.

But you killed it after 134s before it was completed, what makes you think it would not have finished when the download was complete?

That would be completely fine since:

The log only shows a single desync, but even a loop would not show that there is anything wrong beyond the desync issue itself. Unless I am misunderstanding you, the behaviour and sequence of events look fine to me.

so, according to you, it's correct, that after desync you get download, that is at least 6 times bigger than original game? (eg. normal behavior) - well 6times bigger is when i gave up, because size was increasing and download time remained constant.
or you saying, that counter for download after desync shows incorrect values (hence just informative random values and not bug)

or what exactly here is "not a bug"?

mind, this is in log
as you can see, it states 17MB, yet as you can see from screenshot, it was not half way trough at almost 100MB ... hence there is a bug, either it's in server, or in client.
assuming CLIENT display byte count as it receives (not just some random values created in void), it did never stop receiving data from server after 17MB, so that is still correct behavior?

usually, you get download (reconnect time save), then you "catch up to server", but client never got to that phase.

as a side note, this is from log after i closed game and connected again
you can assume, that "temporary" download issued by server after desync got "somewhat" broken, since obviously it will not magically increase by 6MB in 4 minutes.

Yes, should be around 13x.

No, what I am saying is, that you confuse the currently downloaded data with the file size.

You might want to look at that number again...

That would require the client to wait for the download to finish and not kill the application.

gosh, you right, it is 170MB

my apologiew then, download was not going to be infinite.

still having multiple times bigger save after desync, i would think there is and issue with server snapshot after desync.

can't get "screenshot" of initial download size now, but i still believe it said 17MB, that's why i was stuck with that value in head, someone might want to check formating function of download message, just in case

anyways, thanks for you patience.
