...delay in commands/actions. My usual hunting group and I headed to Dantooine to fill an order of herbi meat killing pikets. Well, aside from the fact that mobs/lairs now change to red text when you attack we also noticed 3-5 second delays in activating abilities/combat specials. Took forever for the radial options to show as well once we felled a creature. Is this just us? We all noticed it but weren't sure if it was related to a bandwidth consumption issue while running Teamspeak.

I did notice delays in radial options coming up. I also had a bug where I had just popped 2 brandys for a total of +858 focus and willpower, and the focus.willpower would drop to +429 for a minute or 2. Happened to me twice. This little bug got me killed by a rancor.

The new SWG paradigm brought to you by the ROTW expansion/CURB: "It's okay to make combat players have to form large groups to kill bunnies and puppies, but don't you DARE force a combat player to interact with anyone where the interaction involves anything other than hitting and shooting in unison."

Yeah I noticed the delays yesterday too, thought it was just lag even though the meter didn't show it but apparently not.

That sounds like server lag, we used to experience that on Lok back when it was runningon a single pc (slight exageration ).


Using a harvest macro to harvest will speed things up a little.

The delay for me last night was because of Dantooine/Bloodfin lag. It effected the chat server very badly as well. It used to be like this all the time but we had a good run of a month or so

My chat and commands were severly delayed last night. My chat had about a 2 minute delay. Also the button bar doesnt go vertical anymore!!!!! I bugged it the 1st week in beta and again when JTL went to TC and they still havent fixed it...along with a lot of other ground game bugs like the art work for those new hooded cloaks that everyone is selling for 20k what a rip off.

same thing happened to me on Dantooine last night on the Lowca server. When I was on lok, naboo, and corellia on the way to dantooine i didn't lag like that, but soon as i hit dantooine it was horrible.



i think the hampster needed a break from the wheel last night.

I have noticed that if you have an alias mapped to a function key that it no longer works. The stuff you saw I thing was the server working real hard. Dantooine has been known to do that, and The Village exp requirements has Dant very, very busy on certain phases.

No they can't but my alt can wear one...I didn't pay that much for it anyway, I got a free one from someone handing them out at a starport. Not everyone was charging 20k just most people.

I've had to stop using my harvester droid cos the lag is so bad. I type h and wait for 3 to 5 seconds before it starts to move. But by them I'm fighting something else so silly droid thinks I'm harvesting a living creature. Bah!

Other problem is that lairs appear after you get off the swoop and then the critters appear. So simply passing a nest of ronto and stopping for a freebie doesn't work. Areatrack doesn't work right.

Use /tellpet h; Can use driod without lag then



Plus with such high lag now area track doesn't find anything. Have to spend 15mins driving around trying to get things to load/spawn into an area then use /areatrack to find what u are looking for:/
