Title: Fix this auto-kick for unstable connection
Post by: Hazard on March 31, 2020, 08:17:19 pm
Your nick: Hazard
Date it happened: Everytime including today
The bug: My ping is fine like It's from 140-158 but still the server is kicking me for unstable connection while others are having more than 180 pings. They don't get kicked.. I don't really know why but you have to do something about this thing

Everytime you make a spree or try to break any high score, you get kicked even if the ping spike a little bit

It is not a bug..

The kick for 'unstable connection' is NOT based on high ping. It's based on how stable is your ping to the server. Even though your ping is very low, but if it keep spiking (meaning it is not stable, e.g. ping of 30, 20, 800, 80, 50, 1000) then you will get kicked. Based on log, most kick were because of ping that suddenly incease to +900. You might not notice your ping had spiked but the server does not stop recording your ping while you play..

Anyway, the server only kick players that are spawned and not 'away', so make sure to pause download and turn off background processes that heavily use your internet before you spawn/play.
