I still don't actually know why saved games break from this code, but I "fixed" it anyway (the message still can show up, but it will no longer persist), along with some other major changes to the waiting-loop code to fix some issues where late nodes don't always get caught.
I'm testing my GIT skills, so for anyone interested, the full log is here.

Gah. Time makes fools of us all, especially when I have none of it.
For what it's worth, the issue here is "waiting" in player_t is being set to true for all players (even the console player), but only when loading games. Somehow, new games are safe from this.

Code: Select all

<Edward850-Phone> Chizuari: now I'm confused. I just looked at the code and it seems I never put in an initializer for the waiting message. I have a couple of ideas on how to fix it though.
Which is to say, mostly leaving this here for Edward850. Tested with gzdoom-g1.8.1-252, but I bet this goes way back. sorry it took forever to post
