Title: [Bug] Client Or Server
Post by: MacTavish on Mar 05, 2015, 11:39 AM
Many players reported me that they can't join any 0.4 server because client continuesly downloading one file. My friend also reported me that he is having same problem If server is running from 1 day then new players can't join server they stucked on downloading and then leave server But after restarting server it works fine then again happen after 1 day...


This is annoying :-[

Sure it does. Check %APPDATA\%VCMP\04beta\store directory to see that all downloaded files are put to "IP-port" folder.
Solution? Ask developers to send server's unique ID and put store files there. :3

The real solution is get yourself a proper host with a static IP.

From where does that unique ID come from? I mean, what supplies that unique ID? Also, what if a new server would end up using an id from a older one and then a client that used to connect to the older one would end up connecting to the new one as well. Wouldn't there be a conflict between the files? (unless their hash is checked and updated accordingly) Of course this can happen with IPs but at least people can't blame the devs for that :D

@S.L.C
That could work like player's unique ID, but this one would come from the server. Then developers should have a choice to select IP-Port or UniqueID-Port directory name format. :p It should help for hosts with dynamic IPs.

UniqueID-Port :p

Oh crap. I forgot that some people host multiple servers in one machine. Here's something else that could collide :D

[BUMP] One solution to this is restarting the server. That bug also happened to me.

this problem is related to the server, delete the file that appears on the screen from the server and restart the server ;D

No, deleting the file is useless. Only restart is needed.
