[SOLVED]Many pickup casues lag?

EK.IceFlake · Jul 17, 2016, 04:50 PM

No, what he means is that the server takes a lot of time if for example you write
'ping'
it will show up in the console a few seconds later

Are you guys saying the server is lagging or the client?

EK.IceFlake · Jul 17, 2016, 06:02 PM

Its something to do with the network connection I guess, or processing the received packets. Its the client.

I am not an expert, but it seems to be client lag. I assume the meaning of server lag is that everyone on the server experience the same lag and that isn't the case.

I tested this myself: I spawned about 50 pickups in a circle that is maybe 5-10 meter in radius. I then looked directly at the pickups, typed something in the chat and noticed that the delay was 5-10 seconds. My download rate was: 120 kbps and my streaming memory was completely full. When I asked other players (far way from the pickups) if they experienced any lag, the answer from everyone was no. I also tried doing the exact same thing with objects as well. The download rate was 12 kbps and the streaming memory usage was about the same as it was before I added the objects.

My internet connection speed is decent and my PC is also decent. My FPS remained at 60 FPS while looking at the pickups, decreased while I ran into them and I think my ping increased a little as well. Players with poor internet connection and a shitty computer seems to experience the same type of lag (with delays up to 15 seconds in everything) if they are near 10-15 pickups with 1 to 3 other players.

@VK.Angel.OfDeath This is a lot of good, detailed information, I think I have a good idea where to start looking. Thanks.

What's this software?

Visual Studio. By the looks of it, >=2015 version.

The root cause for this issue's been fixed. Expect another server patch soon.
