Severe Server Desync

[mdraimund 1]

Hello,

I have some issues with our units servers. We run ace & acre as well as some content mods. The servers seem to de-sync while someone is connecting when we're playing our scenarios with our entire compliment, usually between 20-25 players. Checking the logs I notice that there's a type of message we get a lot of.

Client: Object 9:127 (type Type_105) not found.

what does this actually mean? Is it the result of the server not keeping up or the cause of it?

What is your upload speed, what do you have MaxMsgSend, MaxSizeGuaranteed, MaxSizeNonguaranteed, MaxBandwidth, all set to?

We got a server from Alpha-networks that I'm not sure on what upload we get. But I've got 100mb/s from the one I run myself, but that one wasn't built to be a game-server.

MaxBandwidth=2147483647;

MaxMsgSend=1024;

MaxSizeGuaranteed=1024;

MaxSizeNonguaranteed=64;

Badly made missions can also cause lag/desync.

So can badly configured network settings.

I'll have a look, especially on the non-guaranteed bit.

Thanks Syn.

Hmm, whatever I did I think it became worse....

This is also another message that gets repeated a lot.

No player found for channel 257343552 - message ignored

Did some further testing & something in our modpacks/missions are causing this & I can't see what it is.
