Could you please fix the Animation Vs Graphics bug (it reminds me of a bug with a different game and development team (where they couldn’t fix it, because the animator died and the only remaining programmer was on Deaths door).

It always happens when harvesting something: trees, stone pelts (when you switch from 1 tool/weapon to a tool to harvest (once it happens and if you switch tools to repeat it, it won’t happen, till later when you are not trying to reproduce it (I have it on my Livestreams and have seen it on live streams of others) Once you’ve seen it, you always see it when it happens) It’s extremely annoying; just like the non-functioning spell checker on steam, where you still have to correct the error your self):

When it happens, there is a moment’s hesitation of the character (where he starts the animation and stops it), there is this weird flash on screen (my recording software (Action!) sees it, same with OBS, I can see it in my video Editing software (PowerDirector 2024 (I don’t do subscription based software) sees it, though through it I can’t pin down the image in the flash, it happens in micro seconds. After the flash and hesitation you have to click left click again to restart the animation sequence and harvest the tree, bolder, fibre, pelt, etc. (Always seems to start between 1 hour and 1.5 Hours in; same as the other game which was made on Unity)

on Stream Examples:
01:26:57 (Seconds before the first freeze and flash on my stream (Playing Vanilla on a server)):

1:16:51 (Seconds before the first freeze and flash on Tuyuq’s Gaming Live stream (Playing on a moded server)):

Just to show it’s not limited to servers:
My Birthday Bash Stream (Local, NO Cloud saves; local hard drive only)
Seconds before the first freeze and flash: 1:01:06

I am sorry I watched all 3 videos during those marks but could not see the issue, maybe I am blind?

I think I managed to catch it on the second one - a momentary flash (almost like lightning). Couldn’t see it on either of the others though.

Rewrite: I’ve been having trouble finding it myself when using the video editing software; this gug is going to be a hard one for the devs (if I’m having trouble pining it down) This is the result and where you’ll be able to see the issue clearly:

Rerecorded using OBS:

It seems to be the player and possibly how big the screen is; had lot’s of trouble pinning it down on my editing software; so I recorded me pinning it down along with the problems of finding it in the editing software.

AHHHH now I see it, that will help the devs!
