[B2.0] Buddy list/private message window randomly appears

Post by eyebo »

I was playing Elite fullscreen and the buddy list sometimes randomly pops up, including a private message window to someone. It happened about 5 times while playing Elite during a 30 minute period. It's annoying, especially if you're right in the middle of a fire fight.

I just had it happen also in Canyon as well. This time I took a screenshot.

And it happened again. This time it happened in the advanced MediaTracker. I was windowed this time. And I was not touching any keys on my keyboard or mouse. I was just watching the run from the MediaTracker window and this randomly popped up:

I was testing the ability to shoot videos with player tags enabled (which works! yay!) and the private message bug happened again! I was tabbed out of the game when it happened.

This time the video render actually recorded it happening. I've posted it to YouTube unlisted:

I'll stop posting any more about it now, unless I learn anything more substantial about it.

Thanks for teh report. I think I identified and fixed the bug. You need to restart ManiaPlanet so that it takes effect. If you keep having the issue, please tell me. :yes:

Is it random, or does it seem to be reproducible? Feedback from you all will help :thumbsup:

EDIT: I think i found the second bug and fixed it for good. Tell me if you still have the issue (after having restarted maniaplanet, of course)

I haven't had it happen since the update, and I've had the game open for hours.

It just happened again. I was playing on my server in Canyon when it happened.

Actually I was tabbed out, checking the forum. The game is windowed. And the messaging popup popped up.

Edit: Happened again. Same scenario.

It seems to happen only when I'm tabbed out now.
