    Modding Magicians? Lol, why not? The stuff you two are doing is incredible - to us simple players you're often achieving what's seemingly impossible. A toast to your combined dedication and brilliance, and to all good things to come! [prost]

    I noticed earlier today that sometimes in PvP or when attacking NPCs that they would jump a lot. I checked /ping and my stats were fine (as well as there being no lag indication). Also, PvP death messages seem to be leniant towards collisions (how it is I killed myself by collision I don't know, but it must be a first :D). Would this have to do with any recent updates, or is it all on my end? When the lag finally did catch on near the end the death messages were still a little weird, somehow Gu…

    The jh between Lost Paradise and the Unknowns moves from time to time, and others locks down completely. It's one of the mod's dynamic features, so don't be surprised if it won't allow you to pass sometimes or won't show on your map.

    Yeah, lag goes red for a few minutes and every once in awhile a load of players get purged from the server, and chat & battle damage updates. I heard it's from work being done with the server, but heresay is just that I suppose...

    A couple of times when there's been red lag I've tried to use F1 to refresh my character (and to save it's possition in case the server crashes). If the command of selecting the character times out I get returned to the menu and all the messages that took place before I timed out appear. The chat feature still works in this state so I can still communicate with other players. It is not possible to leave CF at this point without minimzing it and forcing a quit via Task Manager. The screens attac…

    I've gotten the [E12] lately as well, but I don't know if it's related or if it's because I simply needed to connect to the internet first. Maybe since there's a trend it's something that can be fixed.

    I remember that being said a few days before it happened. If all the updates happened the day I heard about it I'm not sure if that would have anything to do with this... Hehehe, maybe there have been many updates though.

    Having full-scale DK invasions of Sol would be a neat Dynamic Universe feature, but I'm pretty sure he meant Gunboats, right? For me the crashes only happen in the soulforge though if I buy cargo pods and then try to take off.

    Sol run is still fun if there are fighter escorts, but I don't see that very often so the gunboats often do people in. Sure makes our job easier.

    Sorry, I should stay on topic. Not sure if this is relevent, but I've noticed in PvP lately that spamming countermeasures only fools missile salvos a fraction of the time. Is this just my own fault for having bad evasives, or is there continuing to be a problem with missile guidance? From what I've seen in-game and on clan forums missiles only track on certain people on certain days and when they do work their effectiveness varies. I've also seen demonstrations in which missiles can damage subs…

    A major change from yesterday, I now crash to desktop periodically while in-game, the server itself has been crashing more often than usual, mouse-flight and free-flight randomy become the same thing for awhile, when I fly from one nebula to another that overlaps my ship cloaks. Sometimes CDs stop me from going to cruise, sometimes they hit with no effect. This is flying the Sabre. Also, there are systems with strange objects in them. In Sea of Shadows there are three Interspace Commerce depots…

    Lol, and I was starting to think it was just on my end... xP

    Lol, that battle had been going on for well over an hour. In the morning when I first logged on I saw that there were people smuggling and that CFPD had started a blockade - I thought it'd be great if it turned into something big but I never expected it to actually happen. If I hadn't been having so much fun fighting DK in X-3043 I prolly would have been down there getting screenshots for a news report. If I needed to lend another observation btw it would be that I never encountered lag in my w…

    I think OP mentioned somewhere that the crashes in Sol would be fixed in 1.8, but I don't remember where that was said. As suggested by the Serverpolice I did a clean install of CF to see if it'll make some of the bugs I encountered go away. This brings me to another set of observations though. In the options to setup CF is there are a lot of options but it is hard to make informed choices to mix things up a bit. How do I know the differences between the intro choices #1-10? Without having to s…

    Hmm... new observations. There was a crash to desktop for everyone on the server at about 6am GMT. After the server came back the font for chat was different, console commands didn't work, and whenever I'd kill NPCs for awhile there'd be periodic crashes to desktop once again. The problem has been running for about maybe 9 hours now - I don't know what the problem is, but I would have posted something sooner if I had known the server wasn't going to restart or something and go back to normal. S…

    (Quote) Are you sure m8? The first time it happened to me this week I did a clean install but it kept happening anyway. One of the crashes this morning even made my PC reboot.

    (Quote)Seems this is happening again now, except instead of there being 12 people there are 10. The day before the CTDs were still happening and every time I'd target a train the text would display the ship's infocard instead of its name. Hmph... all these problems may be bothersome to see popping up all the time but at least on the bright side they are being reported punctually. Later on today I'll probably do a clean install of CF again, but if several of us are needing to do this frequently …
