After I bought parasite I note kill counts

 

After the team shuffle and disconnection from zone, my kill count lowered by 50 in 1 day, and 250 in the other

 

Does that also affect parasite kills, if it affects parasite-shell it is a serious bug, if not just a small kill count bug

Bold used inappopriately is like CAPS in that it makes it hard to take your post seriously.

 

The answer is no. The stats you see in Continuums menus act very strangely but we do not use them for anything.

removed bold if you say so, I may also use italic, but it shouldn't affect seriousness of a post

 

not just f2 menu, it is same for ?stats if HS server keeps track of kill counts accurately, how it goes backward and not affect parasite kill count, 50-250 kill count lose daily is a big number

 

One way or another this is a bug, since people lost around 200 kill count daily without any actual stat reset

 

I will try keeping a separate track for kill count, however the incident happens after daily shuffle-disconnection-cycling of the server, so the kill counts may also be lost permanently, and that leads a serious bug in HyperSpace

Using any formatting when it's not necessary is like shouting in a small room with 2 people in it.

 

F2 menu and ?stats are synonymous, they are pulled from the same source, which is not used for anything. In fact, all of the stats in the F2 menu and most of the ones in ?stats are absolutely useless. Any data loss bugs with that data are about as low of priority as you can get on the ladder.

 

It's conceivable to lose a few kills on your parasite in a crash, but you won't be losing more than a handful.

Shuffling isn't the only thing that crashes the server and shuffling doesn't crash it every time. Chill.

Well people generally consider caps as shouting, which is a big mislead anyway

 

Shuffling generally crashes server 2 times daily, but 100-200 kills daily also big lose even it does not affect parasite

 

By the way server crashes are good for better team shuffling, but people avoid that by selective unspeccing for forming some kind of private teaming. Therefore a better shuffling algorithm is required

 

On the other hand, even though hundreds of kill count is lost, the experience level is intact I assume, so it also may not affect parasite kills

Or do nothing other than the default behavior since they don't matter

 

ok dood let me spell this out since you seem unsure: kills on parasite will be saved on a regular basis, or even when you disconnect from the zone on your own. nothing from the f2 menu has any impact here, we do not use the same system to store your hyperspace ships/money/exp/whatever.

If we haven't asstablished this yet, it doesn't effect parasite in any way.

lacer you may go lie under some wild hogs you lousy trashbag why dont you play more often so I can kick your team more often

 

also today after I enter zone my 2700 kills and around 322x loses, become 2576 kills and 3176 loses (my loses stayed near same while my kills lowered by 224) there was no crash (maybe I specced)

 

by the way shell came out so no big kill count loss available for parasite

I play playercontinuum, but every time I do you can never touch me, maybe kill me once or twice while I'm in jav but nothing else. You'll always have your kills with parasite even though it crashes, cause it records every kill you get with it.

yes tacer shell worked, so no major kill lose is available as I told earlier

 

however kill lose also affects bought burst and repels, lots of time bought 15 repels and 15 bursts lowers to 0 when I enter zone after some time

 

if hundreds of kills gone from stats and dozens of bought items vanishes that is a bug in hs one way or another

 

my javelin has parasite, after it comes out i can kick you more so you don't need to worry

I leave touching to you part to you and to your gay friends
