I have no idea how it happened or how to reproduce it. It's also probably not worth looking into as it is so rare, but it happened to me today so I recorded it...

You can't see much on the low resolution, but up the res to 720 and you can see well enough what was happening.

I can confirm this, I have seen this happen in the Renegade Stand Alone mod, A Path Beyond.

It happens 1/3 games for me. The only actual advatange/disadvtange it brings is that sometimes the other team can end up seeing his credit amount.

The gray name "ghost" bug is even more of a pain in the ass tbh....it happens when a player direct connects to a server he is already in, while using the same nickname. He joins with a grey name after doing so, and other players who direct-connected cannot see his points, credits, kills, deaths, etc.

I think the gray name "ghost" bug is server dependent, because most servers will give you a "joining game..." screen and then time-out when you try to join with the same nickname twice.

I see this bug a lot its not that rare. It would be nice to see if fixed but it is not a big problem.

That is from Resurrection and its when the a player is in game and reconnects and replaces the ghost. Sometimes it doesn't update for the client.

Thought that's what I had said....guess not. But yeah, it's much more annoying then the bug posted, but similar as well.
