When you move the prop with the physcannon, it updates the angles on the clientside as normal but takes a very long time to update on the server, so obviously when you drop the prop it'll snap to the server's angles instead.
Working on a fix at the moment, I think it's happening somewhere in the UpdateEntity() in the CGrabController class (in the weapon_physcannon.cpp file). > From: [email protected] > Date: Sun, 30 Aug 2009 02:48:19 -0700 > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [hlcoders] Physcannon drops objects weird in new SDK > > Did this ever get resolved?
