  Why does IN lag when it shouldn't?

Hi. Why does Imagine Nation lag when it shouldn't?

I tried logging on to another UO server just to compare the ping and the lag.

To INs server I have 115ms ping. (no timeouts)

To the other server I have 160ms ping (no timeouts).

At IN I lag a lot, its different between times, but its mostly there and it's feeling like if I would have 1000ms. It makes me spike every 1-2 tiles and the spells are 1 second delayed.

At the other server I noticed no lag at all, it's all very fluent, and I have 50ms less good ping to that server!

The only difference between the two servers is that IN is running on RunUO and that one is running on Sphere. That makes me think that maybe it is some script that is causing the lag, some script that is always looping in the background or something.

It feels like the lag is getting worse when in duels, so I don't know if there's some script that involves combat that is causing it, but it could be.

Could you please take a look at this? Because with my current ping and no timeouts I shouldn't be lagging, especially not the way I (and many others) are.

It could very well cause a lot of players to quit if we don't figure out what is causing the lag, so please take your time and look through the scripts, it's well worth your time if you find something that could cause it.

Edit: I guess it could also be the server computer not being able to run a RunUO server, but that would have to mean that it's a very shitty computer, or a computer with very shitty RAM, and I doubt that's the case.

I have a friend who is tring to get on the server. He says everytime he types in a username and password it just says there is a problem communicating with the server. I have tried walking him through all of the steps. Any reason why he would be getting that error upon trying to create an account?

Hello, I am an old player coming back, I was pretty active while INX, one of the most active from the beggining to the end.
I hope any of you can remember me, but well, thats not the reason of the post.
I downloaded a version of EasyUO that cant read this client, do I need a specified version of it to run it in this server or what it is?
If so, could you please email me a copy to [email protected]?
Thank you in advance,
Hiroshima

  Question for Eru or Shade about the patcher

Here's from the chat, just in case you would miss it.

[3 Minutes Ago 12:32 PM] Ziggy Stardust : Eru can you also upload the files from the IN-patcher into a rar-file for players who just wants to unrar them manually? I want to see what files I actually put into my computer, I don't like exe-files, so please add this option for the paranoid people like myself.

[3 Minutes Ago 12:33 PM] Ziggy Stardust : Also another thing that needs to be fixed with the patcher is that if you don't choose a location when you are about to install the stuff it still tries to install it, so fix so that it aborts the process if you cancel the location-for uo-selection-thing.

I can make any of these 3 weps they are the best PVP weapons on the shard. If you would like to purchase one pm me, message me in-game, or find me In-game. Prices are negotiable and if you can provide majority of the Recipe we can work out a great deal.

  Greater Healing Scrolls (!)

Hi.

The greater healing scrolls cost almost no mana to cast and are super-fast. That means that anybody who knows how to press an healing macro and also knows how to use a greater healing potion can pretty much survive ANY attack in a 1vs1 duel at this point.

I duelled a couple of people today in a 1vs1 tourney. I actually hit them down to below 20 health left, and then casted about 4-5 flamestrikes in a row, plus a couple of lightning, and it was still no problem for them to stay alive. Sure I was very lagged but so were they, it was still way too easy, even if I wouldn't have been lagged it would have been easy to stay alive.

The greater heal scroll heals you for 34 health and costs 6 mana to cast. The flamestrike scroll damages you for 38 damage and costs 25 mana to cast. So if you combine a greater healing potion and these scrolls you are pretty much impossible to kill if you ask me. Setting the mana cost on these scrolls to like 30+ mana would make them a "life safer" for emergancies and not something that you can use everytime you get hit, and it would stop every duel from ending up in naked duel where one person wins because he manages to melee the other guy to death with a few lucky high damage hits. That is my suggestion.

  The 1vs1 tournament arena is causing lag somehow (!)

[SIZE="4"]The 1vs1 tournament arena is causing lag somehow (!)[/SIZE]

Hi. The tournament arena for the 1vs1 tourneys seem to be causing lag to anybody in it. I tried joining a 1vs1 tourney there but the lag was crazy.

I came from Britain and the merc camp, where I didn't have any lag. I entered a fight and the lag was crazy. It could take up to two seconds for a spell to happen from when I hit the button at times. Then when it was over I left to Britain and the lag was gone.

I know that you are going to say that it is a static place and due to that it can't cause lag, but it did, to me and all the other players I asked during the tourney, so at least look into it will you?

If the tournament arena would not in any way affect the players lagspikes then how come it disappeared as soon as I left that place, and started as soon as I went there?

It won't affect me that much since I barely join any tourneys either way, but I just wanted to let you know that it is this way, and that a lot of us are experiencing it, and hopefully you will be able to figure out why it's happening and fix it, or make some temporary tournament arena that just has less items in it, for us players to enjoy while you figure out why the normal one is causing lag..

Also thanks to the new staffmember Redemption who hosted it, he did an amazing job. We had quite a few joiners and it was fun, so thanks for that, fix the lag and how stupidly low mana cost greater heal scrolls have, and it will be even more fun next time Smile (I will also make a new thread about the greater heal scrolls later when I have time, if nobody else from the tourney has done it by then)
