0000164: The so called ''eating'' Or translated as not registered actions (grenades, bullets, boost etc)

Notes
(0001350) x7thh0ah (reporter) 2012-02-24 14:07	For nades there is easy fix - decrease damage of them to 100000, then they couldn't kill in 1 hit. "Eating" much more increased in 1.6, for Deagles and Spas sometimes 1/3 hits isn't registred by server. In 1.5 it was problem too, but not that big since: 1. Nades had better registration 2. There was same chance for almost every weapon that their bullets could be "eaten" The worst thing is that it probably can't be fixed due to fatal optimalization of Soldat. Still it should be decreased somehow.

Its much related to peoples connections, but even then in any other game theres no such thing as eating, just a late registry of the hit. In this game bullets and grenades simply don't get registered by the client or the server. I honestly think it also has something to do with a badly written netcode or client. And nades are supposed to kill in 1 hit IF thrown at the enemy feet. Im sure decreasing damage won't help. Comeon if it was that easy it could've been fixed at the first version ;)

A second later then, I touch the place where the grenade was, and die by it without explosion. I do not know anything about Soldat's Server/Client architecture, but my interpretation is following: The client detects that the player would trigger the grenade, and blows it up. The server doesn't, and the grenade still exists, though invisible for players. Are grenades separated in soldat? Like, damage done by the server, and the explosion by soldat? Otherwise they are just completely out of synchronization. Wouldn't it be best to let the server handle such checks completely by itself?

(0001878) DutchFlame (reporter) 2013-08-24 00:50	Definitely yes, but a little less.

(0001889) Squiddy (reporter) 2013-09-02 17:33	I confirm this bug. Also, sometimes M79/nade boosts damage you, but doesn't boost at all on servers you have a high ping.

(0001890) Bistoufly (updater) 2013-09-03 09:47	The situation got improved significantly for most weapons. I didn't noticed improvement in knives eats though. Might be something to look into.

(0002064) DutchFlame (reporter) 2013-12-08 20:12	Bullet/grenade/knife eating is still a big issue lately, I hear lots of complains whenever I play. (it's also ridiculous to look at when a game gets streamed btw)

(0002358) DutchFlame (reporter) 2014-11-09 16:45 edited on: 2014-11-09 16:45	Still a big deal in 1.8. I don't think there has been any signs of a decrease in any of the versions at the moment. Except for that the m79 has become a bit more reliable.
