Korvic 929 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2020 Hey everyone! After some major back-and-forth I’ve finally gotten a more concrete timeline to provide in regards to the lag issues and the fixes therein. I’m also going to take some time to address a few things that I imagine might crop up as a result of this, so let’s get to it.Why is your server running off of a potato? This comes up a lot that the server is inadequate to be able to handle what’s going on. While an upgrade is coming, rest assured that the amount of memory and power we have allocated is not the root issue for just how bad it’s gotten. So why is it lagging, then? Essentially what’s going on right now is our system is getting hung up on waiting to read or write to our discs. Before it can load that chunk for you, it needs to get in line and finish loading that chunk for someone else. That said, this shouldn’t be happening, and is one of the things we’re profiling to see what’s causing the issues. Unfortunately we rushed to update to 1.14.4 when the issue initially popped up in 1.13.2 rather than working it out back then, so now we’ve got a whole heap of possible things causing the lag. As such pinpointing the exact thing that’s causing the lag has been a major pain. So when can I get back to my mineman experience? Right now we have to unpack it like an onion, eliminating possible lag sources one at a time until we find the root issue. Having SSH access is going to make that possible, however bare in mind that I am still learning how everything is setup. A task a previous dev took a year to do completely. That said, I mentioned a time frame earlier. After a talk with Tythus we’ve spoken to the data-center in which our host box is located, and once they perform some maintenance the main server will end up going down for temporary maintenance while we resolve what we believe is the biggest problem, currently. The current ETA given by the data-center is within the next two weeks they can do said maintenance. As such, we’ll have to wait to provide a more concrete date and time. How about 1.15? The CHUNK FIX? 1.15 is a more optimal build to run off of, but from all testing I’ve done the lag issue definitely stems from the issue that popped up near the end of 1.13.2. The update to 1.14.4 has exemplified it, so while I finish up the last of 1.15 testing now that I can do so myself, we’ll look to launch on 1.15 when the data-center maintenance goes through to minimize downtime. I keep dying to Soulstones. H e l p. Soulstones are still not completely fixed, and it’s recommended that players avoid them for the time being. There are warp signs at the Cloud Temple, and the Home Soulstone will always work. Apologies for the inconvenience, but it’s easier if we just don’t use them to avoid people losing items in the meantime. Nexus 2.0 pls Stop calling it Nexus you boomers. What you describe is a professions system, call it as such. 90 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

forwhatpvrpose 1062 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Please actually do make a professions system and custom crafting again. Make it less grindy. I loved the old custom crafting so much and it allowed us to have special items. Like actually making chainmail armor. It was just so neat and unique. I really think it enhanced the experience. Obviously make it not grindy. That was everyone’s complaint. Edit: Also you’re doing great and we love you. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harri 4813 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Just want to say, I think we all greatly appreciate the work you are putting in and the amount of effort that you are expending to make this server better – despite how wasted it may see with your superiors not even having the decency to be here. I think Telanir and Kowaman basically vanishing after another grandiose speech about the future of LoTC and giving us radio silence after 1.14 killed any semblance of performance the server had, and its just shameful and disgusting that you don’t have anywhere near the amount of access you need to actually make a difference. The server being down for 24 hours is testament to that. Just because you aren’t appreciated by the people telling you what to do, doesn’t mean you aren’t appreciated by us. 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myleres 1658 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Thank you so much for all you’ve been doing and have done for the server, Korvic. I don’t think words can express just how thankful the community is for the work you are doing. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love you korvic I’m not gonna lie, I was avoiding making a post because I didn’t really have much to report on the matter up until this point that wasn’t just vague and possibly misleading. I don’t wanna do that to people. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
