Random INVs if we connect to regtest after connecting to testnet previously

Open Varunram opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

I first dismissed these as coincidences, but apparently they're not since I've observed this for quite sometime now. How it works is you've to be connected to testnet for a while and then when you switch to regtest, you may be able to reproduce this bug.

I think this might just be a side effect of how regtest works. I replicated the behavior but I think that it might just be doing that because of something to do with how there's no time checks on the block generation on regtest.
