Topic: Revert last update

Hello, James. Could you please revert last update? Game is lagging, hp/mana regen is messed up, npcs are blinking in and out and monsters are respawning at random times since last update. We would really appreciate it if you could revert it.

Thanks.

James, you need to pay attention to this, the game is "broken" and it's impossible to play it that way!

Ah, is it still doing it? I had thought it was related to running the server in debug mode. It's still using a lot of CPU, seemingly.
I will investigate this tomorrow if I can -- I updated to the newest SQLite and added caching. It should have gotten faster, not slower.

Yes it actually messed with a lot of things. timing of spawns. Count down timer to pit. Its even made the health mana and energy bar regeneration slow/off. maybe just a good revert might help? Its definitely a different game right now.

I'm glad that you're aware of it now.
Thanks.

Re: Revert last update

The issues on the last server side update definitely messed with alot of stuff and created a lot of server side lag. It could very well do with the SQLite update and/or caching.

Re: Revert last update

So did the SQLite reversion actually fix it? Or are you folks still seeing the lag problem?

Its been fine since last update for me. I havent tested it out tho, but no client drops and mana/health seems to tick normally.

That's good. I left the caching in, and just reverted the SQLite upgrade.
Eventually I'll want to figure out why, but the old version of SQLite works just fine...

Re: Revert last update

Seems to be back in full force this afternoon, nearly all the same symptoms as before. Timers seem off, HP/Mana Regen completely random, Monsters Spawning randomly, NPC's flickering in and out.

Out of retirement... for now.

Ditto Mechanic. The server lag is back full force. Started roughly 20 min ago or so from this post.
