#70403, "Can of Worms"
Edited on Sat 07-Apr-18 09:44 PM
|
We can't really ask a player to do that for a number of reasons, because it could potentially open a can of worms if not handled correctly or with care - so I'll tread carefully around the idea.
And if it did happen, it would be best if it was not publicly shared which I'll go into later, but it would require something like...
A video capture program to show the client in action. Maybe some traceroutes to CF. Maybe layer something like that program 'carnac' which shows any buttons being pressed with an on screen display next to the client - that could sync everything up and maybe reveal if there's anyone lagging themselves or how long commands take from when they're entered, etc if you have any other ideas I'm missing to rule out manipulation of the text. Does a control need to be established by doing every race/class combo? I don't really know if those variables are important.
And if there's good enough data capture on the bug with a character, what time, supporting log, and then the video shared on youtube/streamable supporting the log with program details - maybe it would help.
Because it's such a weird and possibly HUGE undertaking, I don't really want to ask any player to create a throwaway character, youtube/streamable account, whatever - all for the sake of troubleshooting a potential bug.
And on the issue of it being shared publicly, don't want characters in the log trolled, outed, or edited for the sake of authenticity. So yea, it's a weird can of worms and a difficult process, which could all be for nothing.
