Delayed login !

Post by ConVicT »

Why does it wait until the next round to log players in on my server ? and when someone is suspended for chatbotting for too long, they don't die, i have to manually /admin kill them ?
and i added the suspend thing cuz i take it, it's to do with the same thing.

Please help as it is so annoying :(

You need to install Z-Thread.

I would copy/paste the instructions here for you but I am denied access to the wiki for some reason.

Here you go for quicker login.

Z-Thread is unnecessary in .4 right?

It's a multithreading library we use to keep tasks, such as login checks, running in the background. If it's not there, the tasks need to run in the foreground and the only time that is possible without disrupting the game is between rounds.

Multithreading is like getting another yarn, and dividing attention among them. Or even getting another cat to play with it. :)
