Mechanic dice loop crashing clients - Ali0en - 02-15-2015
So someone made a dice cage in mechanics that tossed 5+ dice' repeatedly forever. This caused my client to crash and a few others when we were in the vicinity, and it severely spammed the chat.
To reproduce
make 4 tile glass cage with bits that throw objects
throw 5+ dice in
activate it forever
cry as you probably crash

Something to do with the sprite rotation, I've seen.

Probably the chat spam. Dream seeker hates that shit.

Well this resulted in me crashing continually in a fire as a traitor which killed me. Is a fix possible to prevent the spam?

You mean like warning and then banning the offenders if they do it repeatedly/on purpose because it falls under the spamming clause? Because I'm pretty sure that already happens.

I mean like, if you put dice on accelerator parts or whatever they'll burst into flames and disappear from going too fast.

This is a chat spam/user problem/byond problem, not a bug.
