Features just stop working until you hit the Resync key. - RunUO

I have no idea WHAT causes this, but it's been doing it for the last few versions. For some reason, your character gets out of sync and Open door/Use Once Agent does not work until you hit the Resync key. Not sure if other features are affected by this or not. This happens every single time I play.

Do you get any messages from the Agents when you try to use them when this happens?

Have you tried deleting your profile and seeing if it doesn't happen anymore?

No messages at all from the agents or anything before. I deleted everything out of the Profiles folder, logged in, ran around in Britain opening doors for a bit and it was fine. I went to Vesper, ran around opening doors, and had no problems. I stopped and remade my hotkeys for potions, hotkeys for toggle weapons in the dress tab, a bandage self hotkey, a resynch hotkey, and copied my custom title bar display from the old profile xml file.

{bandage} {char} {crimtime}- {hp}/{hpmax} {mana}/{manamax} {stam}/{stammax} {bp} {bm} {gl} {gs} {mr} {ns} {ss} {sa} {aids} {weight}/{maxweight} ${gold} AR: {ar}

I went to Minoc, and ran into the earth elemental near the mine. I used my bandage self key(Insert), then I went to the bank and ran around opening doors when it happened again. It wouldn't open the door to the provisioner building until I hit the resynch key. No warning messages from Razor.

I can't seem to get it to do it again now though, but if it does, I'll make sure to check another door to see if it's just one type of door.

I wonder if it just could a problem with packetloss on my end? This router has a problem with that.

Well, if you are sure you have a piece of hardware that is dropping packets, I think I would smash the crap out of it and get a new one and try everything again before reporting bugs.

Well, I'm not sure or not because I can't get it to reproduce again. I'd love nothing more than to smash the crap out of this though! I have packetlogging turned on but I don't know how to interpret it.

You know, I have been thinking about this and even if there was a packet loss problem, why would that cause the Use Once agent to not work? I can understand the door thing because if it thinks your character is out of sync with the client it would think it was too far away from the door or something....
