Disconnect issues [occurring less often]

Post by Mike » Sun Aug 17, 2014 3:59 pm

It appears that the frequency of the recent mass disconnects has severely dropped. We're still digging through the code to find the cause, examining every possibility and adding more debug information so we can pinpoint the location of the problem and get rid of the bug. Several possibilities have already been eliminated and we are fairly certain that the issues happen completely at random.

There appears to be no foul play involved whatsoever and for all we know, it could just be one player doing something on accident and causing the DC issues without ever being aware of it (it's happened before). Nonetheless, with more debug information, we should definitely be able to further analyse the problem and try to reconstruct the circumstances under which the DC's happen.
One thing is for certain: it's nothing that's caused by recent updates. The truth is that these very same DC issues have happened in the past few months, but at a far lower rate than now (happening maybe once a month).
