Смердокрыл Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Hey! Recently, I noticed that just from having a couple of people connected to my server, we all began to have giant delays (it could take more than 4 seconds for a clicked spell to actually be cast), but the game client itself wouldn't show any delay numbers (in that little window which has ping, download speed, etc.) I never had this problem before, and I'm wondering what could be causing it. or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaroth Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Aaaaaaaaanything. Like, literally. Networking issue, overencumbered HW issue... Problem with your server, problem with your provider (owner of server)... English YT tutorial channel. Check it out if you preffer videos over walls of text.:https://www.youtube.com/AmarothEng I am now completely retired from modding. I am still reading PMs and reacting to them, however, I am not keeping up to date with what is going on in the community and my ability to help you is becoming very limited - I no longer remember some things, I don't have tools installed anymore, and I don't know what is up to date nowadays.

barncastle Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) This is going to be like finding the right needle in a haystack of needles. I'd suggest starting simple and break it down into hardware and software and do some basic checks for both: Hardware What changes have you made since it was working fine? What is the RAM, CPU and HDD like (usage and temperature) when this is happening? What is the throughput on the network adapter? If something seems overworked in the above what happens if you replace it (psychical) or increase it (VPS)? If you're using an external provider are they having networking issues? Software What changes have you made since it was working fine? If you install a fresh core does it do the same thing? If there are any client modifications - what happens if you use a fresh install of the client? Also you might want to double check if you have any redundancy that you can restore from just to see if the hardware/software/both works as before. Edit: Amaroth got there first but you get the gist from our replies... Edited July 26, 2017 by barncastle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Смердокрыл Posted July 28, 2017 Author Share Posted July 28, 2017 I haven't yet checked all those things, but I have noticed something: initially there is no delay at all (tried with 3 people online), but if some of them relog on different characters a couple of times, a bigger and bigger delay appears each time. I tried this with different wifis and there was no difference at all, so it's safe to assume that the delay has nothing to do with internet connection or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
