Summary0000288: Catchblock and Rope Eye Plate recreation for NaN mass bug.
Description

In my experience the catchblock bug made the entire world start jittering a direction, seemingly random but I also didn't check the direction. This had gotten so bad in the TXGC Community Builders server that it soft locked players into one place, and basically made the server unplayable until an autorestart occured.

Steps To Reproduce

Place large stone cube on the ground -> Place 3 catch blocks vertically stacked -> Remove center or bottom catchblock (center gives most consistent results from the looks of things)

Another weird thing that happens is, if you take and put a post a block or two away from the catchblock, static to the large cube, then attach the catchblock to the post, remove the middle catchblock, and then remove the support, it creates a floating block. (See images, warning, this method seems unreliable, I'd gotten 1 out of 10 to work)

According to Stu from PNL, "the bug can also be caused without catch blocks, but using ropes and rope eye plates. place 2 stone cubes in the ground, place the rope eyes on them in the ground, connect them, and just remove one of the plates. should cause it"

I think we may have experienced the issue on TopHat UK server. There was a time, when this bug happened on a daily basis, about 2-3 times a day. At some point everyone started slowly shuffling towards one direction. You could still interact with the world, use items, etc, you just couldn't move out of the spot since you got rubberbanded back. Upon hitting an obstacle, it instantly killed you. The issue is not appearing anymore, but that may be due to someone not doing these tricks anymore.

What elfusan says happened in tophat, is exactly what happened in our server as well.
