LAG without Disconnect
Hello,

yesterday, there was a longrun with 20 racers and one of them got a LAG in the middle of the race ! So, the car wasn't shown anymore, and the name of the driver was shown as "LAG (200.9)". Normally this driver disconnects after some seconds, but he didnt ! He was there for more than 8 laps ( Aston GP ) and still didnt disconnect. He was shown in the list of positions as first, then as fifth and then as first and so on ...
Then, in the end the driver talked to us via chat, that I should hit him in last lap, so he flew over the track, but I can't hit him, because I didn't see any car there !

So, its a crazy bug I think, watch the replay please In lap 16 I think it starts. The name of the "LAG" was Killernap - mb'Thomas Ernst. His car stands the corner before the first split !

it happens to me many times since 0.5K demo...precisely: i am the one who lags, others see my dot on map stuck in a fixed position, they don't see me even while i'm crossing the finishing line -> at that point they usually realize they don't see me, because when there are 2 or 3 cars with close fighting for final position, they just realize that a car crosses the finishing line 0.2 seconds before them but they don't see anyone... they usually say i'm a ghost!

disconnecting from a server and reconnecting don't fix the problem -> i MUST exit LFS application and restart it to solve this.

i wonder what can be more useful to devs: the mpr of who's lagging, or the mpr of others?
Heloo
I Have this Problem only in Races not in Quali

After the Race starts 1 or 3 Min. later all Cars Stay with lag.
1 The Server kick me not
2 I can Drive without opponents
3 After finish the Race ..Result is all Correct !

What is this ?

It happened a lot to me when S2 came out. It was due to my computer overheating, because after I opened the case and put a couple of fans in there, It never happened again. Try just running with an open case ddor a while
Hello

I am lose 3 or 5 min. on a Server

----------------------
at this time all normal all Cars on Track !

this problem is "well known" and is there since S1, mine is different! ...in my case i can see all others, but they don't see ME, only me...i've done some tests and it seems to be related to bandwidth saturation, let me explain:

- i have a 100Mb lan connected to a properly configured adsl router which bridges a 1280/256 atm internet connection.

- my pc always runs LFS "only" (i mean no other application that connect to internet) except NOD32 antivirus that checks updates every hour

- my pc have a properly configured Kerio Personal Firewall 2.1.5 allowing lfs to fully connect (both inboud and outbound) to internet, even if only outboud is needed

- i noticed that when this problem occurs another pc in my lan engages some bandwidth for upload (let's say 60% of adsl upload capacity)

so my guess is that if some of my lfs packets are lost this bug arise...my bet is that the server at which i am connected while is capable to keep connection, with huge packet loss may be fooled about car position and may not be able to recover from the lag

ever since i noticed that, i configured my network to ensure my pc have 66% of upload bandwith guarranteed at any time (only when i'm playing with lfs) -> i never had any more this problem!!!

by the way what most of you guys are experiencing is a server problem, but maybe it could be the same problem i had, but located on the server itself...so my guess is that this proble may be related to poor server connectivity...

i hope this could be of any help
hi

i am that one what freak said who just is all time a lag. thats an interesting story honey. i also got that problem on other servers. i got when i drive another pc in my network or maybe even 2 other with me what are connected to the net. and you mean when they are on the internet they eat my bandwith and then this problem is coming up?
