Bug Report - Random Red ScreenFade

yo i'll check it out, meanwhile need more info and for future next time a screenshot a clip would be useful so i can understand and able to reproduce it

The red screen comes from the Rusty Wing Zombie class. I fixed it

Cause: pressing [R] to sprint puts a red tint on the screen that is set to stay until something removes it. Only the normal end of the sprint removed it. If the player was killed, respawned or re-infected while sprinting, that step never ran and the screen stayed red. It only went away when another plugin happened to send its own screen effect, such as the infection fade. That’s the “red for a long time, then slowly fades”

It looks random because it only happens when the player dies or gets re-infected during the few seconds of sprint. In a tournament with lots of deaths, that’s easy to hit 3+ times.

If Rusty Wing isnt the case I still found and fixed a real bug in it while I was there (on the human side):

Tint stays after the effect ends. Each pulse of the effect holds its colour for 4 seconds and then fades over 2 seconds. So after the 11-second effect ended, the last random colour stayed on screen for about 6 more seconds. The last pulse now fades out in 1 second with no hold.

Tint stays when the effect is cut short. If the effect stopped early (death, infection, respawn or a new round), the last colour also stayed on screen. It’s now wiped right away. On disconnect it skips this, so nothing gets sent to a player who is leaving.

Otherwise if the issue still continues:

1. Did you ever play Flying Zombie in those sessions?
2. Was his screen also shaking at the time?
3. Next time it happens, record a demo and what was going on
