Description Vincent Cojot 2008-02-21 06:15:27 EST 
ever since the last few version of SVN head, I noticed that console output of the dedicated server was chopped off (a little over 512bytes, from what I would say):

With only two bots, I get:
----------------------------SCREENSHOT--------------------------------------
]status
map: q3dm17
num score ping name            lastmsg address               qport rate
--- ----- ---- --------------- ------- --------------------- ----- -----
  0    -1    0 Bones^7                50 bot                       0 16384
  1     1    0 Bones^7               100 bot                       0 16384
 
Kill: 1 0 6: Bones killed Bones by MOD_ROCKET
Item: 1 item_health_large
]status
----------------------------SCREENSHOT--------------------------------------

but with over 5-6 bots, the display is incomplete (7 bots in this example):

I have tested this on Solaris/Sparc.. maybe related to the latest snprinf() changes...

Can you be more specific?
Comment 2 Vincent Cojot 2008-02-21 08:05:43 EST 
I was thinking of the changes introduced in rev1250 but I am unsure how they could have caused what I was seeing..
Comment 3 Vincent Cojot 2008-02-21 08:08:09 EST 
Just verified that it doesn't happen on Linux (RHEL4U6).
Comment 4 Vincent Cojot 2008-03-25 06:13:00 EDT 
Cannot reproduce anymore. No idea why.
