<div class="IPBDescription">2 players kept changing to skulks</div> I was looking at my server usage, and it looked like a 20 player game suddenly turned into a 0 player game within 5 minutes, which almost never happens. So I go looking through the log files, and see:


(notice the timestamp - these are mulitple times per second and this went on for 40 seconds)

Fun stuff. I have added two more WON ids to the ban list now <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> I just wish I'd been there to ban those bozos in person.

Sure would be nice for that 1.04 patch to come out and fix this kinda crap...

    i remember when a guy on my server was doing that.. he did it like 25 times or so, and was acting all cool pretending not to know what was going on. it was only when i double checked the log files and rcon said "gonna look for exploits" that he left w/o a word. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    sigh... i'm adding them to my ban list as well. while we're on the subject, watch out for someone named Du0g0d0fd3ath (may be spelled wrong, you'll know when you see him) I banned his wonid once and he came on again with a different one. He likes to spray nazi flags and build cc until you're out of res, crap like that. Also a clan name aOa, they like to exploit maps and res cycle. I wont post the wonids of these people because people will claim its a witchhunt, but just keep your eyes open. If you want thier ids email me or msg me

    NO DOUBT! Flayra you are the man for bringing about such an awesome game and it pains me to ask, because I know your working on it and it will be done when its ready, but when can us lesser admins get the patch. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> Gameplay on my server is suffering <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    *to save flayra the time*

    1.04 will be released VERY soon. They had some compiler related bugs that they are pretty sure have resolved now. We are talk'n 1-2 days if these problems are gone.

    I've seen something like this too. Me and another player went gorge at the same time to cap the double nodes in the map with feedwater. We both started our res nodes at the SAME time and he was done before I was even 50% done. I am sure I did not lag and I had ~60fps constant so no lag client side.

    As for the speed building, take a look at this guy's post over in the bug forum:
