Friend says my character is standing still right next to the car, but I was not there [STABLE 0.62.140099]

Description

I was playing with two friends of mine and we were having fun around our offroad. At one point one of them could see my body standing still right next to the car, but in reality I was not there (I'll refer to this entity as my ghost): he could hurt me by punching the ghost, and I could punch him and hurt him aswell even though he could not see me (but he could see the still ghost making proper animations like changing weapon when I did and so on). To the eyes of our third friend everything looked fine, he could normally see me and the other guy without signs of any ghost. To fix it, all I did was just getting in and out of the car.

This is a screenshot the guy who could see the ghost took with his phone and sent me on whatsapp. I've edited it in an attempt to make it clearer.

Additional Information

It is worth mentioning a few things:
We had just arrived to our destionation and he was the only one who could not get out of the vehicle even though all seats were lowered and every door was opened, so he decided to log out, wait a minute, and log back in. Before he joined us again I moved the vehicle a couple of meters to prevent him from spawning inside of it; as I was stepping out of the car I saw him appear so I decided to punch him in the head right before he could really take control of his character so that he could have not seen who it was, but little did I know he would have fainted because of it. Once he woke up, the scenario I described earlier took place.

I know all of this is pretty messed up, but I have the sensation the cause of this issue lies in the additional things I've just mentioned.

Hello Damarus95 and thank you for the report.
We are going to test the issue internally and will let you know once we have some updates on the progress. Just for clarification though, was the same character that appeared as a "ghost" the one that has punched the logging in character/moved the vehicle last as you mention in the additional information?
Regards,
Geez

Yes, it was me. Luckly the third guy didn't perform any action except watching the scene. I'm posting the sequence of actions in order to clear up any doubt , but feel free to scrap it out if it is too confusing:

A is me
A* is the ghost
B is the one who took the screenshot
C is the third friend

Everything is normal

A and C are outside of the car
B can't get out of the car

B disconnects while seated into the car
A moves the car a few meters to prevent B from spawning inside the car model
as A steps out of the car he sees B loading into the server
A rushes to B and punches B to the head, making him unconscious.

B finally wakes up
B can see C and A* (the ghost)
A can see C and B
C can see A and B

B can punch A*, hurting A [A sees B punching the air]
A can punch B, hurting B [B can't see who's punching him]
[side note, C and A tried to land punches where A* should have been, but it sorted no effects]

A steps in and out of the vehicle

Everything comes back to normality
