TerminatioN

This still up for grabs? Might be interested... Probably a noob question but how many zones/players would this be sufficient for? Guessing more than I'll need or be able to get, but just curious. Thanks.

Buy a different car.

Thank you sir! Problem solved! I figured the new year had something to do with it.

When I use the *log command, I see this: Wtf is going on and how do I fix it?

Yep, thanks that was it! Guess you must have gotten some inspiration since the other night. This is the same problem I was talking about. Yeah I know, if you read I accounted for that. Thanks anyways! This is resolved!

Security:MaxShipTypeSwitchCount is currently set at 20, and yet it allows what appears to be an unlimited number of ship changes to anyone (might not be unlimited but I gave up around 130). I've tested it myself under an aliased, non sysop name, had a normal player test it, had several others test it, changed it to other numbers, recycled the zone, etc. Pretty much tried everything I can think of and still its as if the setting is totally ignored. I know its not the Security:SecurityKickOff setting as that is currently set at 1 and if Security:MaxDeathWithoutFiring is exceeded then you're kicked off and it says in the log thats the reason why. I'm really stumped here. Please help. Thanks, -TerminatioN

Thanks freakmonger.

http://nigradamus.mybrute.com Quite an addictive little game. See if you can beat me.

Lol, doesn't exactly solve my problem, but thanks.

He checked both.

I had Jericho look at all the settings and he made some adjustments, but there have been no changes in the problem.

Hi, I'm TerminatioN, current sysop at SSCC RedStar. We are experiencing a problem where players will be kicked out of the zone and are unable to re-enter. Here is what happens: The player will be in the zone for any random amount of time and for whatever reason (my only guess is severe lag), I will get a red sysop message saying "WARNING: Packet flood from" from their IP. Shortly after they will be kicked from the zone. Upon attempting to re-enter they say the client will sit at the black screen as if trying to connect to the zone, but it will stay there for a long period of time, after which they get the error message "Check to make sure that you are connected to the internet and that the server is online." or something to that extent. I get no error message or anything on my side when they try and enter. The only way they are able to get back into the zone is if they can change their IP (which is problematic for some players). I'm not really too knowledgeable on this subject, but my only thought was that it was some kind of security server side blocking their IP that I had no control over. Totally possible I'm completely wrong though. Anyways, does anyone have any idea what could be causing this and/or a possible fix? Thanks, -TerminatioN

http://www.theventer.com/Temp/redstarsux.png Yes, we can all see how awesome it's working out for you. Those statistics are wrong. I don't care where you got them, they are wrong. The 20 mil games usually bring in at least 20 people. Yes I know its not a lot, but its better than nothing and with 2 teams of 10 it makes for a decent game. I know you probablly aren't going to believe me regardless, but here are some screen shots to back up what I said. http://forums.redstarzone.com/viewtopic.php?t=4392 Sorry I can't be a forum !@#$%^&* like you, I actually have a life. Like I said above, those statistics are wrong. http://forums.redstarzone.com/viewtopic.php?t=4392 well for one thing" why did you have to add this (look up) Your add was ok tell you add this (P.S.: Gravitron, this isn't talking to you so stfu plz kthnx) Because I was hoping he would actually stfu. I didn't want him ruining this thread too. He was going to post/flame regardless of whether I put that in there or not.

ok... what about some link to it in TerminatioN's signature? Done. I'm quite sure you are the only stupid one here Gravitron. I like how you keep saying the same thing over and over again because you have no factual basis to your posts. Its pure flaming opinion. Ex: ZOMG !@#$%^&*IN NOOBIE NOOB NUB ZONE. I HATEZORZ IT BCUZ I LIKE TEH SVS SETTNGS BETTERZ It obviously raised people's attention because people came last time, so stfu. If that sentence made any sense I'm sure I'd reply. Lol good job proving my point. Notice how you are the only one annoyed? Just because you are an anal forum troll who has nothing better to do than flame someone trying to revive a zone, doesn't mean it is annoying. If you could spell literally you might actually have gotten me there. I admit it, I did post a message. AMAZING ISN'T IT!?

Spam. Short Pointless Annoying Message. Short? Not really. Pointless? Definitely not. Annoying? Not really. Message? Yep. Good job Gravitron, you are 25% correct. You still fail. Sorry. Lastly, you must not be able to read.
