Author Topic: Server problem  (Read 414 times)

Ok, I've been hosting my server for the past few days, and whenerver someone joins, The server freezes for about 2-4 minutes, and its for everyone, not just me. And on the console I see, Regenerating file manifest. Help!

There is a known issue where the game will freeze for a few seconds when someone connects or disconnects.  Occasionally, it will freeze long enough for someone to get bored and disconnect, which makes it freeze more and you end up with this chain reaction where it freezes for like a minute and everyone leaves. 

It is a difficult problem to debug because it does not happen consistently and the freeze is not from CPU usage.  CPU usage actually drops to zero while it's happening. 
i think that is relevant

This can also caused by creating datablocks during gameplay, causing the file manifest to be regenerated.  The add-on loader and various orb changing scripts do this.

Ok, So the Orb Light for the Admin Drop-Camera is cuasing this? I'll dis-able it right away as soon as I get home. What you mean creating Datablocks during gameplay? how does that work and happen?

Ok, do I have to delete the Orb light add-on, or just disable it?

The add-on loader wouldn't do that every time a player joins though?
