Players stuck on spawn
needs more information
Fusl
Sometimes (very rarely actually) when you join an instance, you randomly see players stuck on the spawn, not moving at all but able to hear them talk while in fact they aren't even standing at the spawn.
I ran into this issue twice, but haven't taken a look at the logs yet. Friends of mine also had this issue, most of them just once or twice, too, so this isn't a local problem. Once this happens again for me, I can check the logs and see if anything related pops up.
Workaround for this is to just rejoin the instance, the problem is so rare that it's almost guaranteed that the next time you join the instance, you're fine.

StormRel: The same issue sometimes occurs with VRC default avatars.
I'm assuming it's not a custom avatar issue

Despite being the default VRChat home world, some days i spawn in the sky, some days i get stuck in a wall and can't do anything, and some days you fall infinitely from nothing.
I can open the menu window, but when it falling infinitely, the menu doesn't follow and I can't do anything.
From my experience, from March 2023, these problems seem to be on the rise again.

this world causes this to happen orking immediately as you join and have OSC enabled.

Can confirm this bug in my case it actually happens quite often, most likely after a fresh login.

People's avatars staying at spawn for some people but they are actually moving.

When you go into a world with others in it or follow someone to a world, sometimes their avatar will be at spawn or another place, I'm not sure if its random or not, move like they're running when on their screen they are running around and will talk like they're stood there but when i ask my friends where they are, they might say the opposite side of the world on their screen. Some times, they'll just float there doing nothing and cant hear you speak until you get near their avatar but they're actually behind you and were wondering why you were ignoring them but their avatars aren't where they are for them on your screen. The screenshot with this post is of my friend who said they're actually behind me and were walking around the whole time with me and I was ignoring them but I could only hear them once i got to their bugged avatar. I've had this bug quite a few times on many worlds with various friends and what usually fixes it is leaving the world to another then coming back to the world but even then sometimes they'll still be bugged and you have to try again.

When you observe this, it is very important that you note the date/time, grab the output log, and post it in here. You can use Gist or Pastebin to link a log. If the log is too large, you can try uploading to Google Drive.
Determining the cause of this issue depends on reproduction and seeing logs.

fix is to rejoin

might be that the player is not yet loaded in memory (memory buffer overload) , so the player you see at the spawn is a frozen frame in memory (VRChat has still lots of these queue issues with loading stuff from and to memory (most common critique as it causes memory leaks)
