I can see a reason for wanting to put a version string in an obvious place on a dev version.
But we really don't need that giant DAYZ logo. We know what game we're playing.

This issue is still around. Here's a shot of the prison building on Chernarus in Version 1.24 showing the same "spots" when lit up at night.

I recommend we all start directing our players to the DayZ SA Launcher in the meantime as it seems like Valve is not able to fix this easily. It runs on a separate system from the Steam service so as long as you have set your server up right it will show.
Another option is to educate people on how to direct connect but even that is having issues.

Thanks for the Update Geez! That explains the slow search, especially in the beginning, seeing how the first servers coming in are the ones farthest away.
Also matches with my own observation of the search results starting out very slow and then somewhat picking up speed later on.

https://feedback.bistudio.com/T170263 seems to be the hot ticket for that issue.

This unfortunately made it into the stable release. Still seeing it in 1.20.155766.
I also see it when crafting, e.g. breaking up a long stick. There's a noticeable delay between the action concluding and the short sticks popping up in vicinity,

I notice a lot of those Chinese servers have obsolete or fake versions. Would it maybe help alleviate the problem to give the launcher an option to skip servers with versions other than the current one?

We are unfortunately still seeing this after the 1.20 update.

We're still getting reports on these, sometimes with only teleports, sometimes the players are clipped into/under the map.

Timer and CallLater have pros and cons. Switching to Timer is just workaround. Personally preferring fix already very good described issue.

Hi, quick addition to this one. The issue is exacerbated by being in an environment that triggers a popup like, for example standing in a tree of bush. In those cases the popup just travels with the player view.
I've attached a short clip illustrating the issue.
