Beta v1.3.0b

So I joined a high ping server and I was spiking around 300-500 ping. When I jumped and punched over a trashcan I took fall damage.
Now I was curious to find out what caused this to happen so I kept jumping and punching, trying to recreate what I did and to my surprise it happened quite often. After ten minutes of recording I have made a compilation and I took damage after repeating the action multiple times.

That's just too much ping to work with. The server/client can't sync properly. We have not design the game to run at such high latency (I think I have said in the past we have designed it to run up to 100 in ping or something). We're probably going to force server-side-only movement for players with latency above a certain threshold just to avoid this kind of stuff in the future. Strange things are to be excepted when you have monster ping.
