"waiting for:" message after loading save in netgame

[john]

After loading a save file for a co-op game in GZDoom i get a message that says "waiting for: 2". Sometimes it says "waiting for: 1 2" and sometimes both players get the message. I have been trying to figure out what it means for a while now, I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious. The game still seems to run fine for both players but the message persists and is distracting. I tried disabling messages, changing the host, copying the save file over from the host PC and changing network modes. Loading co-op games in ZDoom doesn't give me this problem but i would prefer to use GZDoom. Any Help would be appreciated.

This is how my batch files are written

gzdoom.exe -host 2 skill 4 -loadgame save0

gzdoom.exe -join <ip address> -loadgame save0

Your first instinct must be to always update your version of (g)zdoom to the upmost latest for anything involving netgames. It's kind of confusing when someone asks about a bug that was actually fixed a couple of months ago.

Also note that the skill command will do absolutely nothing if you are loading a game, as the save will already set its own.
