Players controls freeze up when on server

Unread post by HappyFnCamper »

Hi...I have heard peeps like GeeNutz, Jimm400, and a couple others say they freeze up and can't move or fire. It used to happen on the CG server a long time ago. Am I right to understand that we got the file setup from Hermski? If so maybe someone can drop him a note to see what, if anything he did to stop that. I waited a few days to post this to see if it was just a random glitch...however it seems to happen sevral times a day on the server so it seems to be a real prob to look into. A reconnect or reboot doesn't always seem to help. Perhaps it's a map problem for some folks rather than the deemer server setup. Don't know myself just throwin out ideas.

I got the arena mutator from him, but nothing in the way of set-up, I did that myself. I'll look at the settings but I don't know off the top of my head what could be causing this. If most people are ok, then it is most likely a bad client setting. I'll look at it and post more soon.

Camp, Tommy,

Here is Herm's answer :

> I had that problem. The fix for it was to upgrade the firmware in my router. I had a Linksys router. Once I upgraded the firmware, the problem went away. Let me know how it goes.

So... I don't know if it's our solution ?...

No idea...do those having the problem all use a router? I'm pretty sure now that there is no problem with the server.

I can't say more ?!... Herm sent that answer because the router he used for the CG server was doing that problem...
I have not any other small idea about this prob but yesterday, Jimm400 was stuck without any way to move almost every 2 maps !??... :(
:( :cry:

I get the problem on 4 maps off hand i cant remember which they are but no router used here i just have to wait till the next map to play (ohh one of the maps is redeemer fun or something like that were ur in seperate rooms and have to fire thru the gaps into the central core)
Also have a general problem with the bots, can be on any map there sorta hunched up moving around with the weapon hand held out and one leg no animation in them they just glide along everything else is ok when this happens tho that doesnt really spoil the gameplay

Moon, I am not hosting the game from my home computer. This is on a machine at a data center...there is no cablemodem router involved.

Does anybody have the ability to reproduce the problem? If I can see it I can fix it :)

o.k., here is what I need next...the next time it happens (everyone this happens to pay attention here) I want you to type:

suicide

in the console. That will kill you. Then when you re-spawn tell me if you are still stuck or if you can move again.

This should tell me if it is a mutator problem or a deeper server problem.

I think it won't be the solution as Jimm400 spant several whole games without being able to move but he's been killed a dozen times while each map... :?
Hope your idea should be the good one !...
