The server is sending corrupt data

Posted by MagikGames
In 1.8.6, I often get this error message in game and ignoring it isn't an option. It usually happens at the time when my friend logs into the game.

The error is: The server is sending corrupt data: The player that was supposed to login, is already logged in. (id = 15432, 19)

Hope you can fix this before NCFC starts as I don't want this to happen to the livestreamer when he's playing my game.

Just call
gms_debug_hide_errors()

at the beginning of your game and it will hide all non-fatal errors.

Yeah my friend has put that in game_start but then instead of getting that error, I get disconnected from the server (every player freezes for me) then after 20 seconds the game freezes and leaks memory.

You generally only get disconnected from the server when the client does not respond to pings. Please make sure you're not accidentally destroying/disabling the GMS object.

Did this work properly in one of the older versions? You could temporarily switch back to an older version.
