Milordo Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I call everybody who can help us with this nasty problem. I really beg you! Me and my other 2 friends came back to DST in our 3/4 years old world, when something happened; the game is acting strange, teleporting us back all the time, like being in a server with 4000 ping. We did our tests: 1) We thought it was connection issue, so i tried with a better one. Nothing. Not only that! Even I, as host, i suffer exactly the same problems. So it's impossible it's a connection problem. 2) We thought it was our giant base. Which kinda is. See, we noticed that at the centre of the base you're trapped in some sorta of time black hole, where you can't get out. You can try to run but it will teleport you back. So staying outside the base is fine and dandy, until we saw in the caves (which ran completely smoothely) with earthquakes everything llaggged soo badddd. Exactly as at the centre of the base. 3) We tried to destroy all our farms (i'm sad and crying after months of work put in those farms) thinking it was too much entities in the map, which kinda made better, in a small small way. However the problem still remained. 4) We tried to remove the only single mod we had, faster picker (we use it for lag reasons). Nothing. 5) I tried to verify the local files. Nothing 6) I tried if it was my pc. Nothing. CPU 60%, GPU 15%, Memory 78%. All in the norms. 7) We found strange bugs, like skittersquids being invisible, without their models but with visible shadows. So like, you have these infinite lights movable and they're all up on the "bridge" boats?!? It seems a optimization problem. I really beg if someone can help us with this horrible issue. I don't want to skip another Winter feast, without playing it with my friends. They never did it and i wanted so bad to finally show them, how much Winter feast is a cool event and all Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/136435-sos-i-summon-the-dont-starve-community/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owlrust Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I'm not tech savvy, but I have a few questions that might help narrow it down. Are/Were you guys playing on the experimental branch (unlikely, but thought I might ask anyways) with/without you knowing? Have you all installed the most recent update? Also, are your guy's drivers up to date? Have you tried starting up a different world to see if the issue remains even on a brand new world? If the issue persists on a different world, it could be something unrelated to that specific server entirely. When was the last update you guys played on? RWYS, Eye of the Storm, Waterlogged, Eye for an Eye, or other? Did your world retrofit correctly? Again, I'm not tech savvy but hopefully these questions can help jump-start some future problem-solving.

ADM Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 That happened to me with @Steamerclaw on an advanced world, after some point it was absolutely unplayable, constant lag with an update of our position every 2 seconds. To that day I'm still unsure of why this happened (and this was only at the surfaces, caves were okay) but I made my friend host that world instead of me and there was no more problem, running perfectly. So as you play with friends I would like to suggest you the same, just get your world cluster and send it to your friend so to place it in the game save folder and see how it goes. Hopefully it will work fine. I don't know if that's a machine problem because I can play the game by myself and eventually even invite friends of my games without much issues, this really seemed world related until someone else host it.

Oh my god ADM, you literally described everything 100%!!!! Everything, just everything. It's incredible, it's like reading yourself in the mirror. Okay, i'll try to do what you said and i'll update but yes, this is not nowhere as you said "a machine problem because I can play the game by myself and eventually even invite friends of my games without much issues", this is some shady problem in optimisation or something. So Gi-Go for the future if you have too the same problem, it doesn't lag when you fight something or rubberbanding. It's a nasty horrible lag where you can't move, absolutely terrible.

Is that saying that it couldn't figure out what to do with a Squid after failing to eat a Cherry Shrimp? Like, maybe due to the action being interrupted...by a reset or a save or an unloading of one mob before another. Herdmember... Like it's trying to return to its herd following the eating attempt, but can't identify one that it belongs to; either not recorded or deleted by a partially completed write? Just throwing ideas out there. I wonder if that might be a general issue to the Squids, if people not using mods are also experiencing it. Something about losing track of their squid group and bugging their pathing out hard.

MondayNight Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Regarding @ADM's Squids issue: I saw that over time Squids tend to accumulate at the 0,0,0 location aka center of map if that area is transited/loaded quite frequently. Not just 3-5, but dozens. And, when players load that spot, all server lags. Don't know if this may-or-may-not be related to OP's problem too, but an interesting aspect to underline.

I noticed thanks, but it's gonna be useless given they live in spawners similar to Wobsters. So probably I'll just make squids not interested toward them similar to Wobsters too, it was already bothering me that they were only looking for oceanfish and not something more general to try eating mobs and potentially bring additional problems as new fish/fishing related features might be added in the future and break something only for a tiny interaction. Better straight up remove that part, I don't think it would be either worth doing tiny mod support suggestions to Klei.

Milordo Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 So! Here's the update. We did it. We kinda resolved as @ADM said. I gave my world to one of my friends. No lag, no bugs, nothing. All worked out. This still doesn't resolve it 100% because this friend of mine isn't the most avaiable to play, that's why i hosted the world and we still noticed at the centre of the map drops in the performance and some stuggering. To respond to @x0-VERSUS-1y i posted this exactly 1 year ago: Maybe in the new year we should report this to Klei. I always suspected squitterskids have giant problems and could maybe be related to my and ADM's problem, knowning their history full of bugs.
