[FIXED]Can't connect to any remote servers w/0.4.13+ client
Posted: Mon May 16, 2016 20:17This was caused by a problem in the server code and is fixed in https://github.com/est31/minetest/commi ... 4163592b8b . The following patch can be applied to clients (experiencing the problem) connecting to servers that don't yet have the fix.
---------------------------------------------------
When I connect to remote servers using 0.4.13 or 0.4.14 I only see the sky color, a black hand and it shows my position as (x:0.5 y:-0.5 z:0.0). I am able to connect to a local server just fine with those clients and I can connect to remote servers if I use 0.4.12 or below. I tried deleting the entire ~/.minetest directory (config and cache), didn't help. The problem happens on about 99 out of every 100 connects, so not quite 100% of the time. I have a 50Mbps connection that is very stable and behind a NAT, neither are the problem since 0.4.12 works fine.
I did a git bisect and traced the problem to https://github.com/minetest/minetest/co ... 90bdca60b9. Everything works fine if I change LATEST_PROTOCOL_VERSION to 24 in src/network/networkprotocol.h and recompile.
A good connection with 0.4.14 (w/ protocol 24) shows:
And a failed connection with 0.4.14 (w/ protocol 27) shows:
It never receives the TOCLIENT_MOVE_PLAYER or privs packets.
I am using Gentoo Linux and here is the cmake output:
Any ideas how to fix this without using protocol 24? Or is it a bug in minetest that seems to only bite me?
Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.
