Since Ive been away the server has decided (Without any recent changes) to start playing wonky games with us.

We usually sit around 400mb-1000mb ram use on a busy night, and somehow are on 2500mb-3k which will be causing lag issues some have reported. This sadly is a game of trial and error to find the culprit, Diagnosis show 3 main contenders at present, but it isnt as black and white as just disableing something, I wish it was.

For now I have disabled battlearena as one of the main contenders that we can live without, I will keep an eye on resource use and see what happens. I am in talks with the host for any recent changes.

Also I have added WorldGuard to replace out current Claim/Region Flag system, and give us many new options in-game. So if there are any conflicts with how the game mechanisms, mobs, or terrain etc works then please tell me as this could conflict with griefprevention.

Not sure if it’s at all connected or just bad timing; but every time I warp to shop my client lags to the point that I can’t speak and freezes my entire client; until I log out. The first time this happened it dc’d everyone from the server

Could just be timing, but maybe it’s a clue!

Ok one of the main problems that I figured out is that our hosts scheduler is broken, that deals with auto restarting the server for me, so the server at present stays on for longer than 6 hours and needs to be manually rebooted. This is a massive pain in the ass.
