High ping

[Zarhog]

hay i think lock view is stuggeling with multiple Gm accounts being on at the same time, is it perhaps making the assumption that there should only be 1 GM?

[CDeenen]

I have written it with the assumption that there's 1 GM, or I should say that it didn't occur to me that people would use it with multiple GMs. It doesn't surprise me that it'd cause lag. I'll see what I can do.

I've been trying to reproduce this, unsuccesfully. I've got 3 instances open, 2 GM and 1 player, but it's all running smoothly. Do you know if there are specific situations or settings that cause this? Could you also check if it isn't a module incompatibility (find the culprit might be useful to test that).

I may be able to provide some insight into the cause. I run with 2 GM accounts; 1 is running on my laptop as the server host and 1 is running on my desktop that I access to run the game through. When I do this, it generates constant checks regarding the bounding box that after a few moments enter the thousands of requests and starts to consume too many resources.

If I had to guess, I believe this occurs when there are 2 GM accounts with each being run on a different machine. What I have not tested was if I downgrade the second account that isn't hosting the server to an assistant GM account if it would remedy the issue or not.

I hope this helps with recreating the issue in question as it is currently plaguing my game and I've turned off the view lock module until I can figure out a workaround.

ive been trying to re-produce this myself. but inorder to do so it would seem that you need 2 people whom have connections on opposite ends of the world. a bad ping between 2 Gms seems to be the cueing factor
