cHIP oTLE Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 @Mitch (IFRIT) @Leady So, as we know, there’s server performance issues due to memory being used up by something. what if for a test, we change server uptime from 180 minutes to 120 minutes or so and see if that has positive results. Hopefully, the only thing that would need changed would be turf times. We could possibly get back to a state of hard restarts only necessary every 3 restarts. let me know what you think.

Sliick Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 No one will agree with this. People think even 3 hours is annoying 2hours is not happening Donald, MarchingBands, Gagss and 1 other like this Link to comment

More restarts means more of a chance that it will be close to restart when you want to start something that takes a while. .Casper, Big Fred and Innate like this Link to comment
Virrx Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 But I already have the turf pop times memorized Crossfade and cHIP oTLE like this Link to comment
roomba madness Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I mean its worth a shot unless up time isn't a problem for the server. Link to comment
pr0digyt Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I love having the server restart so that there is no money to be gleaned from Feds or Banks. .Casper, 王 rando 王 and Sliick like this Link to comment
Crossfade Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 maybe do S1 to try this out? and leave 2 and 3 as they are, that way we can see if there's a difference? Link to comment

I could be doing some fun shit and have that shitty retart timer pop up. I could be capping cartels and wont get finished. I could be trying to do a fed or bank and it pops up. 2 hours is to short ESPECIALLY for the fill up on fed and bank Donald likes this Link to comment

Mitch (IFRIT) Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 as of right now, I don't believe there is a huge desire for this change from the devs. However, I am no dev. I can float the idea and see what the thoughts are. But I would not hold your breath! Nice idea regardless! cHIP oTLE, • B A R K I N • and roomba madness like this Link to comment

The main reason that I don't believe this will work. Is that with every change. We have to put it to test. Sadly, every thing that had a easy button on it has been changed. There is some different monitoring going on the back end on the servers that I dont understand. But it's my impression that these are different tools they are using to better understand crashes when they do happen. If we alternate to a different amount of time between restarts. Our results may be skewed. Russell*, • B A R K I N • and cHIP oTLE like this Link to comment
cHIP oTLE Posted March 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Good feedback. It was just a thought that came to my mind. I wish I was more educated in code so I could think deeper Link to comment
Steve Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I am a firm believer that hard restarts make a difference with performance. Consider it from this perspective, all exile servers hard restart every restart. King of the hill servers hard restart every other restart (I think?) and many other life servers do the same yet they don't suffer from the same problems we do. When they first introduced only hard restarts, the performance change is noticeable but it's certainly not the fix we have been waiting for. Considering the minor inconvenience we would have to deal with, I think it is worth it especially when you think about how your vehicles don't even always save through soft restarts. Link to comment
Glass of Water Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 I THINK you should go back to roaching meth and stop trying to push 2 hour restarts mullet man Big Fred, Crossfade and cHIP oTLE like this Link to comment
Tony Posted March 3, 2019 Report Share Posted March 3, 2019 Server pop must have taken a hit recently because of the instability. We tried a bank earlier this week, wasn't more than 30 on the server and it froze. We wana play but cba with the crashing. Shame really. Everyones off to takistan life!
