i know the server is full a lot now, but i was just wondering what other people thought of the up to 28 players… it causes me to lag a lot, and ive noticed the server lags a little more as well. i was just wondering if anyone else experiences this, or thinks 28 is too much… thanks.
The server lagged with 24 people this is not because 4 more clients are connecting to the server this is multiple issues with the server that will be resolved either over the summer or at the beginning of next semester.

i never really noticed with 24.. but i def did tonight with 28it also crashed like 5 times
In all honesty: Tron is a dual xeon processor box with 16gb ram. I don’t think four more clients made it lag.
I would suggest turning your graphics settings down. Rendering 4 more people, all their guns, bullets, etc can strain a card.
Try that and then post your opinions so we can get a true answer please.
I haven’t had any lag at all, but I’m running an 8800gtx on a quad-core.
Also, check your rate, cl_cmdrate, and cl_updaterate.
You should be at:
rate 30000
cl_cmdrate 100
cl_updaterate 100
i have not had any lag i’ve seen others lag and most are people that lagged before the max # of people was increased

Most of the lag issues could be fixed in about 15 minutes and a restart.
I don’t find that it lags much more (if any) but I dislike having the extra people. Just too much craziness going on.

Maybe you and Bitey can get together and resolve this then?
It’s the server; I didn’t lag at all before the extra 4 people.
It’s weird how the extra 4 can affect it.
maybe you guys should turn off your hacks it’ll lag less….
no but its proven more clients will lag more…but really i havnt seen any problem with it in the server not to bad really
its not just this server, i lag on really any server over 24 people… 24 is pushing it for me haha. to be honest i wouldve liked to see the server go down to 22 or 20 not because of lag issues just because i think the maps are better designed for less players anyways (except for dust2, it can handle a lot of people). i tried reducing my settings (they are pretty much reduced all the way anyways) and i still get a steady choke in the 10-15 region (rates were fine)… that never happened to me before with only 24. if more people like it better with 28, then by all means keep it up, whatever makes the majority happy.. i just dont know if i can play on the server anymore with this lag issue
As Bitey said, these problems will go away soon because once IT gets off the box, Tron will have a nice little reformat and will run MUCH more efficiently.
A this point I believe they are either entirely off the box or extremely close to being off the box.
Its real close Kip, all I need to do is set up a meeting with Stephen Wilson and Jason Lavigne, if anyone can help expedite that issue, please do as Stephen is very hard to get a hold of.
FYI, Tron is a Dual Single Core Opteron box. It typically runs at 75-80% load. It’s more than possible that 4 more clients are lagging the box. That’s why it was set to 24 to begin with (it was originally at 32). I would recommend moving it back to 24 clients until the box has been formatted and dual cores are discussed.
