Topic: Weird stuff happening. (Server lag issues/Memory leak?)

We have encountered a few strange things happening since last update, see screenshots.

- Monsters spawning in weird spots
- Invisible NPCs

I dont know much about this stuff, but if there are more of these mass spawns happen all over the game, including out of bound, that could lead to a full memory and huge lag?

Blue cave is supposed to be <Level 100 and I was able to enter at lv 600+ so those scripts are broken too

Re: Weird stuff happening. (Server lag issues/Memory leak?)

I believe blue drag cave level script has been turned off for a while.
I don't mind it being off, unless its an issue, never really thought taking a legacy spawn and restricting it was great.

Thanks for reporting all the other bugs. There was some GM mob spawning a few days ago or so, and maybe that accidentally got thrown on the wrong map?

But one easy way to fix almost all these issues would be a weekly scheduled machine restart for the server... Programing it wouldn't take long at all.

I think we are still waiting on Zer to fix the hard drive issue that might be cause a lot of the lag.

Re: Weird stuff happening. (Server lag issues/Memory leak?)

The common things I see are in the mobs, server seems to be getting overloaded by the following:
-Wolfs
-hungry dogs
-orcs
-Orc Shamen.
- water blobs

not sure if this helps but it also seems to be happening on Valour map and every spawn that leads back to valour map.

looks to be mostly cleaned up this morning but there are still random hungry dogs that are spawning in valour blue dragon cave that i never saw before.
