[General] - Random Disconnects

Issue Title: Random Disconnects

Issue Description: When hosting a server, every other player randomly disconnects after random intervals of time. When getting a friend to host, I'm the ONLY player to disconnect while everyone manages to continue on just fine.

I have forward my UDP port to 10999.

These are my system specs (laptop):

My connection is 6 down and 2 up.

Everything else works fine whilst I play the game. I can watch a YouTube video and use Steam features (I obviously do not watch a video while playing though, more of a test really).

This is the error that accompanies the disconnect.

The only programs I have running while playing are: TeamSpeak, Steam, Avast, and Killer Networks (manages my wifi connections).

Please reply at your earliest convenience.

Steps to Reproduce: There has been no observable specific cause to replicate the disconnect and appears to happen randomly.

Bump, still no answers?
Are networking-related issues being addressed?

Hey @Feyris,  

 

Sorry for the slow reply.

 

One of two things is happening.  You may be experiencing some sort of intermittent network trouble,  or our game is locking up from some bug and causing the disconnection.

 

Are you using Ethernet or wifi to play?  If you are using wifi, could you try on Ethernet to confirm that is not the issue.

 

If you upload your log.txt file I might get some more information on what caused the disconnect.
