[b207] *NEW* Alien Spawn Bug!

Chalarie

<div class="IPBDescription">Pretty bad alien spawn bug...</div>Just started playing build 207, and it looks like there's a fun new bug! Pretty regularly, while playing Aliens, my spawn gets stuck at 'Waiting to Spawn'. The only fix seems to go back to the ready room and rejoining, which doesn't STOP the bug, but its the only way to get out of the spawn queue. Looking at the console, I see a bunch of script errors (Nothing I can understand personally...). I would love to copy and paste it in here if it helps, if there is even a way to do that. I will continue playing and trying to find out what's causing it, and If i can get anything out of the console.
But until an official fix, who else is experiencing this?

Ugh, stop posting this everywhere already! I have responded two times to it!

Please upload the script error! We have been through numerous errors with this and many attempts at fixing it, but I guess we missed another one before it was pushed to steam.

You can find your log file at %appdata%/Natural Selection 2/

Also, I hope you are not playing on rockdown :P

Sorry, wasn't sure where to post it :P I will go ahead and do that next time it happens, seems to have not been happening my last few games.

I wonder if this is because you don't have enough eggs to spawn everyone? The 'waiting to spawn' with no timer will pop up when that happens and you have to wait till enough eggs spawn for the timer to start again afaik. The next time this happens, see if there aren't many eggs around your hive.

QFT. I can confirm that if you are ready to spawn with others, and not enough eggs are around, atleast 1 will not spawn and the timer doesn't resett on the HUD (but you will spawn the next queue)

Also, if you are the only person to die, and there are no current dead players (a situation that happens a lot to me) the you see waiting to spawn before the spawn timer starts.

What's about getsatisfaction.com/unknownworlds ? I thought this is the page to post bugs?!
