Ok this is serious.
Is it possible to load UT2Vote43 or even 42 to see if it did this as I need to know where it started else we could screw up the works something horribly.

Frogger - I just checked you post again and that is correct.

1. You have 7 players.
2. Six voted and things worked fine.
3. Then UmW_AStrayBullet changed his vote

UmW_AStrayBullet was the 7th and last person to vote, so UT2Vote immediately ended the voting session, pausing for 3 seconds and checked for a MajorityVote as everyone had voted.
All this shows is that obviously the update is still not happeniong during the 3 second pause and if this remains this way I'm gonna scrap the 3 second pause altogether as it pointless having something that does not work.

The way you need to test this updating is as follows:

You have 7 or so Players.
Only 3 or 4 players must vote for all different maps... THEN a vote must be changed... now see if the Tally is updated and approx how long it takes.

you say '6 voted and things worked fine'....but after the 4th vote (the first changed vote) none of the other votes showed in tally. Just making sure we are on same page..

omg, yes frogger, ... this is what I am talking from since a while. The things the log shows is that what maybe really happens but you see nothing updated in the tally display.
In my case this happens always independent if somebody changes his vote or not.
This effect started since UT2Vote43, 42 was ok. The last beta version I am testing presently so I don't know if this is also there.

The last beta version I am testing presently so I don't know if this is also there.

i am running 44b3 and this log is from 44b3.

Ok this problem is all we gonna work on from now on.
I have now moved the Tally display priority right up.
At this priority level the Replication is updated every 100 milliseconds compared to every 1000 milliseconds before.
Players with pings greater than 100 will probably notice some lag.
I'll get the next Beta out asap to test this.
