Author Topic: Slower Downloading  (Read 395 times)

Ever since the new version of Blockland, it takes me forever to spawn at servers because I have to download all of the files (file manifest), and it also glitches (mouse/chat) in the pre-game screen. Why is this happening? Others tell me that the new version is faster for them, but it now takes me about 10 times longer or more.

In V19, it no longer uses the previously downloaded files from lower than V18. So, it must download all of the art files again. So like before, it takes a bit to download all the files when you 'have none', but now each file downloads faster. The more you download, the less it downloads next time.

In short, it gets faster over time.


So basically, it's like I lost all my add-on files? If so, I feel much better now. I've been freaking out about the hole 'mouse glitching' thing and all :\

And I forgot to mention that the mouse glitches now while downloading the datablocks, and it's taking around 3x-4x slower than before (tested on my own server).

That just means there is a lot of datablocks to load, or you have a crappy router/Internet.
