Bug Swinging Sword at Mobs and no damage - running off screen studders as though packet loss. No Lag !

[WizChip]

This is something that has been happening from afternoon hours (low head count) to evening (higher server loads).
It has happened for three days and brought up to Kainzo right after it happened and he confirmed lag was low.

In middle of a battle, randomly I would start to do ZERO damage.. like I'm swinging in the air. This lack of knockback and damage allowed the mob to attack at full speed and really do serious damage. I would turn to run and running away would STUDDER the screen as though there is packet loss. It can last for over a minutes without any changes.

Sounds like packet loss on your end.

It's been happening with me too. Mostly just with Skeletons though. I've had to run and box myself in somewhere because I can't damage or knock them back.

Pretty sure voxel map isn't allowed on this server, and better pvp mod is definitely not allowed.

Just try using a skill on the mob- that usually works for me.

If Using a sword with something bound to it sometimes it will be stuck in block mode. you can not see it on your end. you look like your hitting normal but your blocking, and instead of running you're going at sword blocking pace.

Please remove Voxel Map as it is currently classed as an illegal client mod as there are some issues with clientpermissions and Bungee which result in certain aspects not working as intended. Until this is resolved please remove this mod.

I will also be looking into the capabilities of the BetterPvP mod and depending on the results of that I may ask you to remove that mod as well.

So, since we continue to want to hijack this threat because of legal and illegal mods and not move this to a better section. Let me just say that I would recommend that someone INSTALL and use VoxelMaps as it doesn't do half of what I hear people say it does. It's controlled at the server level now. Secondly, in installing this mod, it was installed because rei's map (one of the official mods) was merged and now called VoxelMaps. I personally used and find it very basic MMO feature with cheats. I'm new to this game and personally found it annoying until I had a minimap of some sort. I enjoy the WAVEPOINT feature to help me find my way in this mess.

Anyways, I am running BLIND again and will limit my gameplay here until something is done to help the blind people.

Thanks for the pointer on the original Bug report @Raienbow_Dash and @BaBomb

It was controlled at the server level last time we tested it.

clientpermissions

The above is the bukkit plugin that handles the server side of things and as I said in my previous posts there are issues with it and Bungee.

On a side note Rei's minimap was not merged with VoxelMaps that was Zans which was also illegal to use because of the cave mapping feature it had. While Rei's minimap also has the cheats in it they are also controlled server side but in a way we have found much more stable so far. So once again I will ask you to use Rei's instead once it has been updated.


Back on track of the original issue, I too have several issues with my connection to the server but me and other staff members are working on what the issue might be but we cannot promise that it is defiantly our server and not you.

@Danda , Thanks for the reply. I don't understand your "clientpermissions" remark. But, I am sure it's something important. Otherwise, we all played many MMORPG games in the past and have NEVER see a minimap that didn't show you basic local surroundings. You mention "cave mapping" What is the big deal about that? Would it be better that I just draw it all out on pencil and paper? No thank you, why we have computers.

What it did for me.
Helped me not get lost.
Showed where lava pools could be and to be careful. I guess the sound could do that as well.
Gave me wavepoints to help me find my way back, including a death wave point to where I died to get my stuff.

So, just to understand you and what the team thinks is wrong. It is wrong to see the surrounding area?

Please, I just googled minimap and went to images. That is BASIC MMORPG requirements.

I would imagine we are trying to make this game fun, safe and fair. For new players.. this game is hell as you are completely lost in more ways than you can imagine.

No matter what, I will remove all mods until further notice. Thank you very much in sharing you thoughts and making the rules on this server.

You all are still the best and wish you all the luck.

Just download rei minimap and quit bitching why voxel is illegal. That simple.

I don't have any mods running.
