Problem description:

Every now and then, the game screen flashes, it appears that it does not happen at the same time for all the players on my game, and if the host hosts using Dream Seeker, he isn't affected by the flashes, anyone has any suggestions on how to fix? Or even better, what to fix? ._.

Go to bug reports for this one.

I know the problem lies in my coding, but i don't feel like releasing my source for people to look at >_>

Don't release the source, release just a snippet... So if anyone takes it, it will make their game glitch up or something. Or just copyright it... :D

Flashing as in a black screen is flashing every time you move? If so, then that's a problem I had with one of my games.

Flashing at seemingly random times, when standing still, when moving, all the time

Problem is, i don't know where in my source the problem lies ._.

Eh, well, for me, it would go black if I wasn't moving, and when I WAS moving, every click of the arrow would make it flash to the map and back to black. For me, it was something to do with my luminosity variable.

Lol, i don't use Luminosity at all, and this happens no matter where in the game you are, except if you're the host, and hosting via Dream Seeker, if you're the host and using Dream Daemon, you get hit also ._.

Hmm When did this start happening and after what update did this happen? This is one of the reasons why you should archive before you make an update.

That's quite overboard, unless you're gonna go on a rewriting spree or something. Fix:

This is one of the reasons why you should always test after you make an update.

Then if you notice problems you know why they began and probably what's causing them.

Very clever, thing is, AS i explained in my first post, THE HOST ISN'T AFFECTED if it's hosted in Dream Seeker, so i wouldn't have the flashes at my own game, when testing

Hm? You know I wasn't referring to you anyway.

Another clever thing, is to test certain code that can produce different results for different players, with ANOTHER PLAYER(s)! Or more conveniently another DS window logged in with a different key. Yes, that is rocket science, but try to follow.
