Title: Excessive server crashing due to isse with fall damage (August 04, 2007)
Post by: Illysia on August 04, 2007, 07:27:40 am: I know that a lot of the time you just have to wait for the server to restart itself, but the crashing is getting excessive. Every minute or two (literally) the server goes down. I have been sent back to the same spot so many times it's not even funny anymore. ::| I think the problem may be with tells. Every time I sent or received a tell the server went down not long after. Whatever is causing the crash I don't think it is something that will fix itself, I think someone needs to take a look at it. :sweatdrop:

Post by: Karyuu on August 04, 2007, 10:17:43 pm: It's not memory - evidently it's fall damage that is the culprit. So everyone just has to ... not... fall.. for a while, if you want the server up ;)

Kayden is figuring it out at the moment.

Crashing because the superclient is afraid of commitment no doubt ;)

Post by: orino on August 25, 2007, 03:22:55 pm: i had this crazy thought... if fall damage is what causes it to crash, umm i don't know how about disabling it... i bet people would be ok with falling 90 ft and surviving aslong as the server doesnt crash every 3 min.. i could look past the unrealistic falls .. but the server has to online for me to look past anything.....

Post by: LigH on August 25, 2007, 06:07:09 pm: Hmmm ... /marriage on Superclient.

Superclient.

The one that controls NPCs?

Why would someone want to marry an NPC - which may be a merchant as well as an animal? ... :D

Post by: Karyuu on August 25, 2007, 06:30:48 pm: Orino: That issue has already been taken care of. If the server is being unstable now, it's for another reason.

LigH: I don't think NPCclient and Superclient are the same thing..
