Lag around spawn pads

[d4m4g3r]

Hi, was wondering if anyone knows anything about the lag around spawn pads? i get this constant and earlier on railz, as there was so many people i got stuck on the pad and could not get off it. Spawn kills, im Hpb 130-140 ish but sometimes it is worse than others. Any help would be great. Thanx

Was this in the giant kitchen map under one of the drawers at the floor level?

No, all maps i am on it happen's but today it happen real bad on instakilla. So bad i was going to quit the game. If i go near a pad i get sucked into a lag spot and can't get out without flicking the mouse quickly and bashing the keys. Thank's for replying.

Sometimes if there's a client that has been dropped/timedout on a pad the area still has some kind of entity error (as best as I can describe) that you see a momentary lapse in movement.


That's an odd effect.

I just played now and it's still there but not so bad. I hope it does not stay as earlier like i said i wanted to stop playing,

I always lag off spawnpads. It's about a 1 or 2 second delay when I first spawn. I thought it was just a side effect from R1Q2.

it may have something to do with the spawn protect code..

I don't think I ever see that little delay before it takes movement commands if I'm on a tourney/otdm server.

I just played and did not feel it, this was on vanilla, on railz it seemed prolific, there is no one there but i will try it later see how it goes, might be my connection, adsl from the uk is far enough i suppose to make som elag but last few days it has got worse but ping is stable along with the netgraph. weird. cheers guys

As far as I know, it's pretty much "normal". Sometimes on certain maps (especially on railz), I'll get a bit of a lag-like jitter when moving over some spawn pads or certain areas of the map. Try to notice if any of the action around you is showing that same lag-like jitter when moving over those certain areas. You'll probably find that other players are moving normally while you are "sticking". I don't think there's any way to cure it other than trying to work around whatever areas are giving you those symptoms.

I've had this problem a couple of times, somehow it seems to fix itself over time.. 
It was so annoying i started to run around spawnpads instead of over them..
any package loss?

Thanx guys, last couple of days has not been so bad, so hopefully just the normal i was used to before has returned

peace
