According to your IP, it says your from Malaysia, so that is pretty far away. The ping limit is 320 and it has been that for a long time now. Malaysia is probably on the outer edge of that range, so unless you have excellent internet to overcome the large distance (server is hosted in the USA), you probably will be frequently kicked. I can't make the limit any higher because it will start to impact the other players. Personally, I think the limit is still to high (should be the default value of 250), but I'm trying to make the server available to as many players as possible. Anyway, sorry if you cannot connect, but it is just not reasonable to make the already high limit, even higher.

explaination pl0x.
the ping limit is also a reason i do not often play on your server.
my ISP gives me a basic ping of around 60 when i even ping my ISP.
the distance of germany and america gives an addition of around 100 - 200 depending on the route
then your isp is also into this. meaning if your ping sux then mine will higher too. in america i never experienced anyone with a ping less then 100.
this results in up to 360 wich i can reach on your server.
if i would connect from poland or russia it would even look worse since they got even worse routes.

secondly

the source engine is one of the best ping handling engines.
you could even play with a ping of 1000 fluitly on a server. the only thing happens would be pre calculation of your player position wich results in "lagg like looking" movement for others IF you change your movement to something else the server pre calculated before your movement TCP package arrives.

well through this engine you are able to kill someone at the pre calculated position.
besides the client also renders pre calculated. if you disable this your movement would have a big offset.


well.. pl0x explain me why a high ping is such a big thing.

Well if high ping was not an issues, then the ping kicker plugins wouldn't have been created. I see what u mean by being pre-calculated, but it is still noticeable. On a server that requires timing and precise jumps, i just dont see how it would be playable at 500+ ping.

i never saw a cheat server requiring that.

GuyNameBob77 is talking about the DR server. But, yes i have the plugin on both. And btw Gottz, many Germans and other ppl from Europe play on the server with no problems. Thats only across the atlantic but Malaysia is on the other side of the planet!

[GottZ]

high pings in cheat servers can even appear when running the execution of a script.
nico, me and some else have stuff like realtime vector calculation in scripts etc. wich takes computing clientsided at our pc's.
this also highers our pings.
in my case with my creepy laptop its worse enuf to get kicked when spawning something.

also when someone creates a creepily huge light or a massive smokestack it appears that my ping goes up to more then 2000

so tell me a reason for this ping kicker to exist on the build/cheat server :/

[ant_8490]

The plugin does calculate ur actual ping, not the latency on the tab-screen. So i think 320 is fine. Its very rare that ppl get kicked on there even when its full.

[GottZ]

i never look at the ping of my tab screen.

net_graph

the tab screen ping is simply haxable.

This is the wrong section. Someone move it to "Comments/Suggestions/Questions" i guess?
