Mulpiplayer lags

Post by DenVany »

Hi, this is my first topic here. When I play with my friends via Steam I have periodical 254 ticks latency or just "server doesn't answering" error. I have seen post on Reddit about this problem (here is the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... layer_lag/), but I don't think shared network the point of my lags, because I can play when everybody in my home sleep but lags doesn't disappear. I was trying to play with peolpe in my country and nearest to me countries but lags everywhere (one man from log western then me for 1 hour and another eastern for 4 hours). Speedtest is fine, ping about 5 ms maximum. Packet lost is 0%. I have Internet connection by Ethernet (LAN cabel), my router input by optical cable, near 500 Mb/s. Routers antenna is integrated, router located in 2 rooms from me. Was trying to connect both via Wi-Fi and Ethernet.

Thats happens on vanilla and with modes (I tryed Bob & Angelo and also Krastorio - both have lags too). If needed I can attach saves but now don't see reason because it depends on network. Logs will be lower.

Screenshots will be made and posted later(today evening). In singleplayer everythink is good. My hardware of laptop Acer Aspire 5 A515-51G-594W: Intel i5-7200U 2 core 4 threads up to 3.1 GHz (unparked), NVIDIA GeForce 940 MX with dedicated 2 GB VRAM, SSD for 500 GB (was HDD for 1 TB but I changed it), 4 + 8 GB RAM Hynix 2133 MHz (was 4 + 2 2133MHz, also changed), Wi-Fi adapter Qualcomm 802.11ac, Gigabit Ethernet. Network cabel 10 meters cathegory 5. Windows 10 (version 1809) - latest for writing this topic. System was cleaned from trash on this week. Nobody uses Netflix, downloads or does something else. Setuped guest network but now its empty. Channel of Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz was changed to the most free and fastest, multicast is on now. Router also GPON (Digital TV through it goes too) but at the moment of game was switched off. Nobody said about high ping or "server doesn't answering" error from their side. Discord also was running but was working perfectly and clear.

Is this a recent or a general problem?
Steam had issues the past days so it might simply be that.

I have lags but now amount of them is lower. We tried server and all works fine. When I try to connect to my friends (not to server) it lags. Thats strange because server in Netherlands which far away from me and them and with mods it works better then connect vanilla factorio straight.
