Probably a stupidly simple question, but I wouldn't know how to google it:

xyplot(neuro ~ time | UserID, data=data_sub)

creates a proper plot.

However, if I add
type = "l"
the lines do not go first through time1, then time2, then time3 etc but in
about 50% of all subjects the lines go through points seemingly random
(e.g. from 1 to 4 to 2 to 5 to 3).
The lines always start at time point 1, though.

Defining "time" as factor or ordered doesn't change this.
"neuro" is a numerical variable.

It's probably some beginner's mistake, but I don't seem to be able to solve
it.

You should post the results of either str(data_sub) or (preferably) dput(data_sub). I'm guessing you don't really understand how your data is stored and that the problem is at the input and preprocessing stage.
