A List of Things to Not Do in Shatterline
由 ham 制作
Fair warning: This guide is under Early Access, and will be updated as long as the developers keep pumping out new updates.

This is a guide that helps you with things that you should not do while Shatterline is running as an application. I am planning to decentralize this guide out to the community, so if you would like to contribute to this one, hit me up in the DMs and I'll add you as a contributor!

Update: Check the comments of this guide for specific things to not do under specific situations.

Do not ALT+TAB when in a loading screen.
Context:
Shatterline is the slightly better equivalent of old Source games with bad PC ports - while all Source games freaked out into kernel panics if you alt+tabbed with them running as fullscreen applications for macOS (Team Fortress 2 being quite the example), Shatterline freaks out and freezes into a black screen if you try and alt+tab when it is loading.

Testing:
An easy way to test this out would be to start the game up, and immediately alt+tab to a new window during the splashscreen with the weird minigun lady from the thumbnail. As long as you do not alt+tab back into the game, the game will stay frozen and will not resume playing the introductory video. Once you alt+tab back into it, the game will resume as per usual. This is the case under Fullscreen conditions.

Solution:
  • Don't alt+tab immediately after a match ends, or you get unceremoniously kicked out of a PvE or a PvP server due to lost connection.
  • If you do alt+tab in a loading screen, you do not have to hard-reset your rig's power. Instead, you can ctrl+alt+delete and sign out of your account, which will force all applications close. This is a quicker way to get back into playing a better polished game.
Do not disconnect if the error message reads "Error: Connection Lost (01-00)".
Context:
Given the early access nature of the game, Shatterline was bound to have server and login issues from the get-go. One of the issues is the inability to be able to be logged into the game's servers successfully, as a spike in player numbers can easily overwhelm any server, leading to some wacky ♥♥♥♥ when it comes to accommodating players that are logging in after the spike - like, way after. Yes, even sixty minutes after.

Testing:
When you start the game up and await the splashscreen to end, the loading screen starts up and hits you with a "Error: Connection Lost (01-00)". The only button present is "Close" - unsurprisingly enough, it closes the game completely. There is no way to change servers midway through login; my guess would be that your regional selection does not matter when it comes to being logged in, or the devs are yet to implement a feature where you can change your server at the start screen, making logging in much more convenient.

Solution:
When "Error: Connection Lost (01-00)" shows up, do ... nothing. Eventually, after an undefined amount of time dependent on the player strength of the game at that moment, you will be put into a login queue (represented by "You Have Been Entered Into A Login Queue. Please Wait." or something similar). TL;DR - DO NOTHING.

Add that you still can not run near the red-black crystals. I've been stuck there more than once with the team, I had to go out and start from 0.

Thanks for leaving this guide I'm currently waiting for maintenance to end so I'm watching youtube and reading guides. This is very helpful and I've given you a few awards for such good intel to have. I haven't alt tabbed out yet since I have two monitors but since I have one tower it's helpful to do when I'm full screen. I appreciate your advice and good job testing this out and finding the bug!
