Very high latency and buffer

Post by EOS »

Hello, I have a big problem playing on my friend's server. He is a hosting company, his internet is good enough as mine. But there is a problem such it is a big ping.

I tried to be a host, he has the same problem that a large ping.

At this time, when I was on the server, the statistics were as follows:
254 ticks but that's a real peak, usually between 40 and 100.
buffer 118/118/188 but usually around 20 to 50.
Well, jumps then increases and stops altogether, and when 0 it lets go but with lags.

For example, I get a tree and writes a message that I got 4 woods in 1-2 seconds.

I tried to turn on the firewall, turn off the auto-save of the server by asking a friend, remove the download return, or set a limit, create a rule in the firewall with the UDP type (for port) 34197 as well as outgoing as well as incoming. All this is unsuccessful.

We also tried to play via LAN, but the situation was worse, and this server is via Steam.

Assuming you are still on the same hardware as in 105637 this is expected.

No, the server is not the problem.

The problem is not the ping, the problem is your friend's cpu has about one third the minimum-spec performance. The response time's as bad as it is because your friend's rig can't keep up in a multiplayer environment. All clients and the server are running the full sim, and in multiplayer they're rerunning it as traffic arrives.
