High latency but slowly goes down to normal?
#1
Ok I've just started a SRCDS zombie mod server. Almost everything works fine except one problem. When someone connects to my server they start with about 200-300 in latency but after some seconds it slowly reduces to normal. Now if you reconnect your ping is fine until you restart your game. There is no other lagg in my server I've run it with 16players and there was no lagg at all.

I've searched all over the world for a answer but can't seems to find one.
Please help me out!

Happens in every server, nothing weird there Smile

On some servers the clients ping goes down faster for some unknown reason, I personally think it depends how much total bandwidth is available.

Oh I see. Well I just don't understand why I don't have this problem when I start a listen server? Sad Any ideas?

Are you hosting and playing from the same computer maybe?

No I'm not playing on the same computer as I host the server on.
Doesn't really matter who connects to my listen server I've never seen this problem before :/. It's not really a problem but I don't feel comfortable with it.

I've noticed that for some peoples it does almost not happen at all.. They might join and have about 50ping but reduces to 10-20 pretty fast but for some other peoples they have about 200 and reduces to 50 quite slow.

Just really depends on the connection, on some servers I have it quite a bit (like you said, 200 ping) on some servers I don't have it at all and start of with 10-20 ping

I thought you were doing a listen server, so i thought you were doing a LAN server or something. But your right, doesnt effect it.
