Cool Time / Dungeon DC (Sometimes)
The server is has small players just a few friends is all ^^
Well there is a small glitch with the potions and skills on the Cool Time, Mostly the buff ones. Its like the graphics visual and the timer are not synchronized, basically when you see the Icon of the buff disappears it won't let you reuse it right away even though the cool time on the skill icon is done recharging. With the auto mp potion sometimes it will glitch up mostly with fighter types and not mage type of characters. Once the mp is depleted it will glitch up saying cool time is not done yet again the icon shows it has, and have to do click on it manually.
For the Dungeon quest or using the 4th door sometimes we will get disconnected and have to relogin but warping to other maps is no problem just the dungeons.
I am using chumpy's server files, used his guide to set it up. Client type is US clean non patched, have a friend using EU client but his problems were fixed mostly map errors. Pc is 1.6ghz, 2gb ram. Centos is setup to use 768mb of ram and Windows XP handles the rest over all would still have about 300mb ram left since i play on the same pc as server. I know its bad to do so but like i said its a small server mostly 3 players online right now during the day. The patch i used was a combination of Sauron RZpatch and GP Cabal Patch login by DarkXL. ^^
they are minor problems but still curious what can cause them. thanks! =)
Re: Cool Time / Dungeon DC (Sometimes)
With those specs i would expect some lag if playing on the same machine as the server. A Cabal client is very hard on a pc and playing from the server machine usually causes lag. a 1.6ghz cpu is not that fast and it's having to do a lot of work, the recommended spec is a 1.4 with 1gb of ram and you only just meet the "perfect" specs without taking the DB and vmware into consideration. Buffs and cooltime not synching is a known problem when the server is under a big load.
There is actually a legit d/c issue with mp pots in official but as far as i know it only affects wizards. In official one of the d/c bugs was tracked down to wizards using blink+dash to move about quickly. Sometimes you hit blink/dash when you don't have enough mp and cooltime is still running it can smetimes boot you.
The d/c with the 4th door is a simple explanation. The server data holds all of the quests/warps etc and so does cabal.enc in the client. Your cabal.enc does not match the server data and if you craft, accept a quest, buy from npc shops or try a warp where the data doesn't match you d/c. My files are designed around the patch in /etc/cabal/docs.
Re: Cool Time / Dungeon DC (Sometimes)
The cooltime problem is occoured by server lag, this is mainly cause by playing from the same machine you are hosting.
the error code 6 and disconnects are cause by a bad sync between client and server.
curses chumpy, i bet you have a predifined text in notepads for all problems, you just type too fast -_-'
