Last 2 weeks i have been disconected a lot and so i've lost almost 10000 points, and that's not fair.
I think the time to reconnect should be increased to 90 or 120 seconds, coz in 60 seconds u do not have the necesary time to reconnect.
Consider that as a precaution measure for the players that are beeing disconected coz disconecting is the worse thing that might happen.
Am i right? Bill? Kreso?

Last time when i was disconected i was playing as Pampicu with 3KINGS about 10 minutes ago and again in an unfair way lost points.
I'm getting sick of this problem. Something must be done!!! But quick!
Now i can't play with poeple with high ranks coz i've lost a lot of points and it's not fair!!! I have played a lot to earn my points and in theese last 2 weeks i have lost almost everithing coz of disconecting problems. I wouldn't be mad if i would have lost the points coz of my mistakes, but in this way.....
After this game i've pinged galacticmag.com and it did not respond and coz of that i think the server is getting down and soon will crash. That's not good!!! What about my lost points??? It did respond only after about 2 minutes, so if the time to reconnect would have been higher, I would have had chances...

A higher time gives you more chances to reconnect!!!
When server crashes down, it responds to ping only after about 2 minutes, so, in 1 minute u have no chance to reconnect!

My internet connection is ok, it is working in the time that i am beeing disconected from the server. All the other pages on internet are working properly, but the server from galacticmag did not respond to ping! So, it is obviously what is the problem.
How much did I lost coz of dc?
Think that i was dc about 15 times till now in last few days!!!

I don't think that higher reconnect time would help. Looking at the logs, it looks that mot player either reconnect in 30 seconds, r they don't reconnect at all.
Something else is causing the disconnect problem. |

Ok, but what?
I've spoken to Bill, and i said to him that after i have been dc., i have tryed to ping the GM server and it did respond to my ping only after about 2 minutes. During pinging the GM server my internet connection was ok, so what could possibly go wrong?

This disconection thing is getting me mad.
Every time when i'm beeing dc i can relog only after about 2 minutes. So I have no chance to stay in that 60 seconds.
I think it would be fair to make the time to reconnect higher. In some games u have to wait for others to roll the dice even 5 minutes and in this situation when it would be fair to wait more, the game waits for u only 60 seconds.
Even the answer to this poll shows that time to reconect must be increased.
Kreso, please reconsider increasing the time to reconect.
Thx. ![Wink](images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) _________________

This is most interesting information which is quite usefull to me.
About increasing the reconnect time... I'll think about it and then decide. And I need to collect some additional information from log files. |

Well, this is most interesting case. If you couldn't ping the server for 2 minutes, then it is no wonder that you got disconnected.
Now, I first thought that, perhaps, server lost connection to Internet, but other 8 players were having no problems.
If this is how disconnects happen, than my search to find a bug in the code is futile - there is no bug. Then it is something else that is causing those problems. If that is true, I'm just wasting time searching at the wrong place.
Now in order to confirm this, I need two things. First, which tool or command did you use to ping galacticmag.com? Just to be sure.
The second thing is that I need more reports on this both from you and from other people. For example, when they get disconnected, can they ping:
galacticmag.com
161.53.166.3 (in the same building)
161.53.160.25 (on the same network as our server)
www.google.com (to check whether your connection is working)
So Husky, next few times when you get disconnected, can you please ping those computers. I need at least 20 reports to have a somewhat reliable conclusion.
I will post an announcement so that other people know about this. |
