Am i doing something wrong? Or is 2482 not available yet?

[Dashiva 13]

Haha, I forgot to upload it. Nice catch.

[Guest Skynet]

I see a memory leak in Wurm Online 2.7.0-2482 (I first noticed it several versions ago), the worst I've seen it at is where it was taking nearly all of my 8GB ram.  Though it took awhile to get to that point.  It appears to leak memory even when idle.  Visual VM is telling me that it's using only about 90MB of the heap at it's peak (the heap size itself is between 120MB and 130MB).

Unless you have sound enabled or take a million screenshots, non-heap memory usage should be stable. Are you sure it's not the driver that's leaking?

It's not only ATI anymore... i thought you now that Dashiva :-\

Unstable Client.

I'm able to mouse through cave walls and highlight objects outside. This is sort of the same thing as me being far enough away to highlight buildings on a deed. I can also highlight things "That should be to far away" by moving them to the edge of my screen and then I'm able to highlight them.

There are two separate issues here. One is actual (non-client) memory leaks, the other is that the client will use more memory over time with sounds enabled, and for things like screenshots. This happens because unused resources are released slowly, but it's different from a memory leak. It definitely won't use 8 GB memory, because there isn't that much stuff to load. This is client-specific, so easy to detect. And after the fixes in unstable, I've run all over the server and left my client running overnight in a busy area, with no increase in memory use. (Again, not counting increase in sounds used.)

If there are other cases of client-specific memory problems, all you have to do is post your game settings and your behavior and I should be able to reproduce it. I can't fix a bug that can't be reproduced.

Please be more specific.

I have a tower in the middle of my screen and I'm quite some distance from it and can not mouse over it but I can move my view to the right or left and have the tower on the edge of the screen and be able to then highlight it when I was not able to. A enemy could be to far away for me to target them and I could move them to the edge of my screen and get a target and use archery from that point forward. Catch my drift?

When you are close to something like a dirt wall you highlight the dirt wall but when you far enough away to where it doesn't mouse over the ground and says dirt but it actually highlights things behind it. Well I can do this with mines now. I'm able to highlight boats through a cave wall if say I'm 20 tiles away from the cave wall so it doesn't highlight it but allows me to highlight people or objects outside. Not a big issue but thought I would mention it.

I run window mode.
