WCS in the mornings

[acolyte_to_jippity]

Hey everyone.

Zero, i'm pretty sure you know about this, but i was just wondering if there was anything you could change to fix it.
Most mornings, the WCS server glitches like crazy. For some reason, normal damage won't work, and only damage from abilities will (raiden's ult, extra damage applied like w/ athena, etc...) work. an example, i summoned someone this morning, unloaded an entire mp5 into their back, then emptied an entire tmp into their head, and finally died to their teammate's serpent ward. It was registering the damage (numbers on my screen) but it never actually hurt them.

Normally, someone cals in an admin (mostly anex or chibby) to come in and reset the server, but i was just wondering why this keeps happening. A few months ago, this stuff never happened and one day all of a sudden it did.

any solutions zero?

ive never seen it happen cause I guess I just don't play at that time. but yeah it's been an on going issue for quite some time. and apparently it cost wizard 28 lvls this morning..... as always I'm sure zero will figure it out eventually. I know he's busy the next couple weeks though.

This is a rare glitch caused by WCS the cause is completely unknown. However it is believed that for unknown reasons a WCS server can not start at the same time as any other server... so what I will try to do is program a delay in the boot of the wcs server to that it loads after the others. I will make a post after that change has been made so that you may see if it works.

zero ftw

dude, you are awesome.

i hope it ends up working.

but why'd it start all of a sudden a few months back?

The change should take effect next time it restarts. Hopefully there will be no glitch on Sunday morning.

I've seen plenty of abuse take place during this time as well. One of the bigger ones as a few late nighters can attest to is being able to pickup a secondary and main weapon as the knife races and even be completely invisible while shooting as a vagalion. Only visible effect is muzzle flash. It's the same with vagabond if you drop your scout. Along with rapscallion and flame predator. Clearly this doesn't help the actual issue just what I've seen.

[acolyte_to_jippity]

well, shooting invisible as vagabond is a known glitch, and we can't fix that.

basically, the time after the server restarts (sometimes) and when an admin can manually restart it is all fucked up. athena's ultimate won't work, for example.

but like zero already said indifferent, it should be fixed.

For as long that i know.
The servers restart at 6am my time and come back online arounds 6:30am witch where the HP bug start until another admin restart the severs.. Use to be like that 2month ago.. Don't know if it the same issue.

Oh by the way.. Do anyone miss me yet? :P
