Laggy Bastards!
« on: March 26, 2010, 07:41:50 am »
Update post mainly for simon, but it affects us all.

Laggy Bastards, that's all my mate use to say when he was playing MW2 lol

But, we've seen a lot of it lately, the lag-catch up as I've called it :

  • You're leading the race quickly after starting
  • You notice the people behind you slow down almost to a complete halt
  • All of a sudden, they're all around bashing around like atoms.
  • You're in the hedge, lag slammed.

Happens quite a lot, more so in one world races. I've heard many complaints about this, but I couldn't pin point the problem. Simon and I were chatting about sizing down AX coding, to a minimal. Luckily though, we know a guy named pod. He suggested we slow down the stream rate and so far it's seemed to have worked. (It is early days so I won't get the party hat on)

One world is back to normal, woo.

There still seems to be some lag issues :(
Lowering stream_distance to 250 or 200 may help more

Ok, we'll give it a go this morning.

Fixing a few problems (restart, tt cpsize), soon as they're done, we'll try again. Today should be busy enough to see if the lags gone.

I was getting it last night although nowhere near as bad as it was.  The massive lag at the start seemed to have gone but during the races the cars in front of me would slow down a bit then catch up and then the same again. I was also getting cp lag.
