Post subject:  Disappearing mates

So I played this game with my mate recently. We got together via him copying my IP into the "address" field that appears after pressing the "connect" button.

The whole time I could see him, items he spawned and everything he did.

Suddenly though, I beckoned him into a room and he couldn't see me, he couldn't see buckets, bins and jawbones I spawned he couldn't see them either (though I could still push him about with them) and when I picked up an item he spawned or an existing item like a bullet casing he just saw a flying bullet casing.

What do?

The is a problem caused by the engine being overloaded by actors, so it limits the number of things that actually get synced. :-\

The most likely thing to be increasing this number is bloody footsteps, as each one counts as a single actor, and the limit of synced actors is about 2000 I believe. Some maps have over 1000 actors to start with.

The easiest way to have a smooth game is to clean the blood on the floors first and be mindful of where you walk, avoiding too many footprints.

Thanks for the help! If I could ask 1 more question, is it in your schedule to add steam workshop support?

Mod support certainly. Through Steam Workshop preferably, but that's still to be determined. :)
