Bans for speed and turn related stuff

The server may lose people x777, but what would you rather have:

A server that is full of people, but is horrible to play on because of the lag everyone is causing.

A server that has a smaller number, all of which are able to play the game the way it should be with no lag.

I choose the latter!

[Stoertebecker]

First, sorry to put my opinion here, as inactive void player...

I congratulate strail on this! This is long overdue...after all, freelancer is largely based on reaction, and therefore lag is a P in the A.

To all people having problems: it may help to sort your PC out, not only for FL, but for every other game.
Some random tips from an old fart:
-Don't run anything in the background (emule, whatever)
-Don't use wireless LAN
-and most important: experiment. If you find your connection lacking, try out many things and see if it helps.

Cheers

On the contary, I see numbers rising not falling.
No one, ever, really wants to play a game where you can die, in horrible lag. So instead of people arriving for the first time and seeing constant yellow, and leaving, now they come and stay.

Greetings All,

Will a player be banned if he alters the look of his ship?  Allow me to explain,  you can have the vertical fin on the Eagle shot off, the Eagle will fly with greater agility, especially in the turn. Will this be viewed as a Cheat, thus the player would then be banned?

[Gr8-Lizard]

AS i know m8, U can shot off even half of yr ship, if U can fly with it, its no cheat...
With the Eagle vertical fin, U r not the first who tried this.It works.Sadly (personal opynion)waste of time, cause i think its not a serious ship. Maybe if U could buy a Tween Eagle...But yr choice.

[Verminard]

The destructable ship parts is part of the vanilla game, and only affects stock ships, so it will not cause you to be banned.

Well friends.
What about you? Do you knows the Void and his A-team?
The Void is not affable place today. Yea, couple of ideas were wrong and I´m annoyed too.
But evolution is not easy. Evolution always yeld a profit or death and Strail have no certainty before his resolutions.
Many call for tons of stupidities and when you get it, you call for some more. At the end of this infinity game you just say: "Hm, the Void is stupid"
Just from reason, so someone is listening to you, to your childish drivels.
Simplicity is the best. It's fun. Too complicated mod is undesirable.
You don't need hundreds systems to dying. Your death is always same.
You don't need hundreds ships and cruisers. In fights you will be dying as same as before, as in 1.0 mod.
Why is HC server so interesting? Coz is simple. Give me same ship, same weps and I show you how good pilot I'm.
Only players without pilot skills though, so bigger ship and larger guns will made ace from them too.

Maybe Strail lost somewhere his right inventions, maybe is tired from us, maybe is sorting good and wrong results.
Yea, I wish "old good Void". With uncomplicated mod, with no lags and with tens good friends as well as good "enemy".
But I belive in one fact. A-Team will sort all problems and the Void will be the best FL server again. I hope.

Richi.

[Travesty]

Good words Richi! Although, as far as I see, Void is still the best server out there. Other servers might let the whole cheating thing slide, yet here it is being dealt with; even at risk of losing the odd malcontent. Even those who become irked at being auto kicked will return. Common sense will prevail  ;)
Long live the Void!

[The_Kaos]

Yeah nice i like the idea but i think its a lil dumb

I was returning from uk2 to the monkey outpost.
whin i was near the base and hit the dock maneuver , i got a message saying sth like "thrusters depleted" and i got kicked , and i cant acces server anymore .if i would have used the thrusters i would have understanded that it was a bug or something but i didnt even use them.i just pushed f3 in front of the base and cruise engines stopped and the shipp started to align with the base

Some help plz?

[overal]

Generally i think it is a good idea. It will help fair game. But moment ago i was playing... everything was fine until i suddenly had a huge lag and after that the game wrote that i was banned for speed or sth like this... please make sure that this won't affect players who play fair...

[The_Kaos]

the banning program affects everything.and lag causes speed miscalculating , i'd explain why but im sure admins should know.

I f  u want my miscalculating explanation just ask .
