2.4.3 Lag/stutter/rubberbanding while steering

[Neoony]

Affected Mod

ValheimRAFT

What happened? 🤔

Only since 2.4.3

When I take the steering of the raft and turn just a tiny bit, it does not apply the turn and the turning returns to middle, while the picture of steering keeps spinning further and further.
It just basically lags and rubberbands.

And then also the whole ship (or the game?), while steering, I get these tiny hitches/lags.

In Single Player and it was even worse on my dedicated server.

Video from single player testing where its not as bad with the stutter:
(I cant test on the dedi right now as there are players and its on 2.4.2)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgdUw0BbrjQ

On the video I am just tapping right, and it returns the steering back. Its just not really applying the input.
And also notice how the whole boat or even camera just jumps/phases/skips for a split second every now and then.
Only when steering.
You can see that just after second 0:30 on the video (https://youtu.be/jgdUw0BbrjQ?si=4uOZ3nDIqgREr-AB&t=30)
This stutter is a lot worse on dedicated server.

None of this happens on 2.4.2

Steps to reproduce 🔄

Just grab the steering and turn and see how it behaves. And then sail for a bit and see the small lags happening.

Technically this is a feature to force center the wheel. The auto center deadzone could be lowered though. Is it making it hard to make turns?

Edit: the deadzone is only for near center steering not 90degee left or right. Not sure what you mean by lag

[zolantris]

Also dedicated should be using 2.4.3. There were a few sync tweaks to ensure all floatation values are synchronized. So 2.4.3 should be both client/server so be accurate.

Other problem is non host is extremely laggy/jaring when moving in rotations and on the sea while the host session remains stable, they do see the player constantly out of sync and moving in stutters sometimes almost falling off the ship.

I likely need to rewrite the ZSyncTransform logic / make a custom sync component for vehicles. Not simple but it's high priority.

Mostly it just feels very odd and off, and yeah it seems I cant just make the steering turn only a bit if I wanted to
I guess I would rather prefer the way it worked so far (is there a toggle?)

I never thought of it as a feature, so I am not sure now :D
Might have to try again

When I tested on dedicated server it was both server and client 2.4.3

About the lag
You can see how the ship is lagging or skipping for a split second at these points in video
Everything is smooth and then it just "skips". Just keep looking at the ship.
This definitely did not happen at 2.4.2 and it was happening much more often while on dedi, compared to the single player on the video. (client and server 2.4.3)

https://youtu.be/jgdUw0BbrjQ?si=p-RQ9dW5jhhIdA_a&t=10 (this one is very mild)
https://youtu.be/jgdUw0BbrjQ?si=4uOZ3nDIqgREr-AB&t=30

(or maybe the character skips or goes a tiny bit out of sync for a moment? 🤷 )

It was to the point that it was really annoying. The ship just wasnt as smooth as it was before.

I only had a short time to test on the dedi, and didnt get a video, and now dedi is on 2.4.2 because I have players playing and that lag was annoying enough to revert.
And now I was testing in Single player few days later and made the video.

I might have to try it again on dedi sometime when I can and record

I would like to confirm that the ship sailing in 2.4.3 is quite rough and jittering. This issue is persistent in single-player where syncing shouldn't be an issue. It's not enjoyable as the sailing use to be in previous versions.
