ok, my server has a lil lag, and bad shot registration. its a 66 tick 30 slot server. any help?

[Spartanfrog]

If Shot registration is the same thing as Bullet registration, its a myth.

[dualcore1289]

hows it a myth? my shots dont register

[Drocona]

We don't know what causes bad or good bullet/shot registration.

On some servers it just doesn't work while on others (exact same setup) it works perfect... we don't know and I've been tryin to figure it out the past 2,5 years

[Spartanfrog]

More a legend then a myth then i think lol.

[dualcore1289]

oh lol

[Muppet]

The main thing is to make sure your server FPS always stays above the tickrate. The only other factor that would come into play after that would be network connections - latency, number of hops, does the server have direct peering etc.

[Spartanfrog]

One annoying kid complains about how my registration is not good enough. Just coinicdently he is in CAL and only says that when i kill him....

[Drocona]

People that say they are in CAL and moan when they get killed are common cause, they think they are professional players when they play in a league. They also moan about settings a LOT cause they aren't like cal match servers. All I tell them that most league settings are complete bullshit and need people that actually know how to run servers.

I don't do any leagues, cause I think it's bad for your image. Let them moan, they don't know crap about hosting and the game, they only know how to fire their weapon. I always tell them to either shut up and start reading a bout servers or leave, if they continue I just ban them and they start moaning about admin abuse on the forums

[Spartanfrog]

lol. Though the guy does help enforcing rates on people lol. I swear to god you join, and hes moaning about your rates straight away.

[Drocona]

Rates are overrated they weren't made without a purpose, if you can't live with the idea someone has lower rates than max you're stupid, rates only matter client side, not server and other clients. Clients running on a bad connection, that's what the problem is as they give random updates and there is a SLIGHTEST possibility those might "shock" on other clients screens.

[Spartanfrog]

lol. I think im gonna add an advert with Mani about rates though. Everyone complains when someone lags and kills them that there rates are messed up. Also you cant believe how many times people tell me I have a lot of choke when it turns out that their rates are 33 and my server tickrate is 100....
