  1. Cleaned up and merged similar threads.
  2. The dustbunnies are only barely feral these days due to overfeeding, but it's the puns that'll get you.
  3. heh, and you managed to completely bypass Feral Dustbunnies...

  5. Hi folks, As you will be aware, we have been suffering significant lag across the servers lately. The development team have been looking into this over the past weeks, and we have made some progress: We found an issue related to people moving items under certain circumstances There was also an issue around cross-thread handling of one of the player buffers, where a buffer got some random data added in the middle; this was a side-effect of how the new CA chat channels were added that didn't play nicely between threads. Investigating the above issue also threw up a similar problem with how waystones and pathfinding works; both issues have been resolved, and the various threads told to straighten up and play nice with each others' buffers We have added a significant amount of additional logging, which is showing up some other problem areas that need work The out-of-synch restart last weekend was down to some extra logging that was making a lot more data than expected; to prevent disk issues, we needed a hot patch and restart. Barring another oopsie, we should be back to regular restarts from now. As we dig into the issues, it's becoming clear that there are a number of issues co-existing causing the problems. Some of these have been around for a while, while some are recent additions. This is an ongoing and high-priority investigation, and we are continuing to fix the problems. Thank you for your patience and reports! Things should be starting to improve now, and we're continuing to fix issues, so we expect the lag to decrease further back to the game being sensibly playable for everyone. Pandalet
  6. Split this into a separate topic in bugs.
  7. What do you consider 'stolen' in this context? Cut from trees off deed that have been planted by someone else at some point? Cut on someone else's deed? Picking up logs that someone else cut down but left lying around?
  8. Ideally one that's been renamed. Should have Enki creator tag or better. Material should be platinum or meat. Paying loads of silver, literally no price too high. Shoot me a PM.
  9. hELLO LAG

    We are aware of the lag issues - at this stage, they seem to be primarily affecting Cadence, but we're keeping an open mind about the other servers. We are investigating, but I don't have a clear timeline for a fix at this stage, aside from 'as quickly as possible'. We will update as the investigation and fix progresses.
  10. As this thread has turned into a bunch of personal attacks and mud-slinging, I've locked it. Pandalet (LFM)
  11. ...if you see a patch of white dotted flowers on the side of the road while driving, and have to fight the urge to pull over to pick them, because they're really rare.
  12. Horse pregnancy timers were originally in Wurm time, but it was changed to RL time as a quality of life thing, since that's what most players care about anyway.
  13. Please keep this civil - asking for clarification is fine, but turning this into a bashing fest will result in the thread being closed. Pandalet (LFM)
  14. It's remotely possible, but it's not likely. Having said that, lag is something we do keep an eye on, and we're constantly looking to improve.
