Don't you just love it when UT2004 does stuff like this?

Probably half the time when I enter a game, all the nodes are one color
for about 10 minutes...

I think they only change color when I personally go and look at them

It seems like such an obvious bug, that it makes me think it must be
deliberate - like map nodes only update when a team member looks at
them?

Have you taken a look to see if they are running any new mutators? Or does it
only happen on certain maps? Could be a bug in either.

The one thing I can think of they might have in common is an anti-cheat
mutator...perhaps there is a bug in that, or in the latest patch.
