Sometimes, when I join a server i can't move or play, I'm trapped in some sort of spectator mode where I only see the map, without players, where I can only use the chat.Link to an album of screenshots of the bug

Do you know on which server you can't play? I mean it's random or always the same server? Do you play on ShootMania with the same computer? Do you well launch it under the administrator rights?

It's pretty much random, it does not depend on the server or the gamemode, but it happens almost always the first time I join a server, aswell as some matches later.

Looks like the same issue here Can't play shootmania at all.
and possibly also here Can't play after going spec on passworded server

It's just like the first post you linked, are you working on it already?

The problem is I want to play Elite Matchmaking, and there you can't reconnect

Any news?

looks like nadeo is still on holidays...

What is your internet connection (wifi, cable)? Did you try to change your game settings and deactivate the P2P in the game launcher? You can also change your internet speed in the launcher.
Please look at the maniaplanet article to have more information about the game settings:
