Server player limit

[wes]

I understand that we want as many people on the server as possible but 100 users is too much, I was in a building and a car desynced straight through and killed me. I think 60-80 maximum is a good sweet spot (even at 80 vehicles desync wildly).

Yeah. I joined before and I desynched over a guy inside the carshop. All fine on my screen but somehow I ran him down inside a building. Drove all the way north to gear only to get kicked for ping. My ping is usually consistent around 25, but it jumps up occasionally when players are joining en mass.

The 150 ping limit (or 100, whatever it is set to) is a problem. Ping can fluctuate during play, so perhaps set this to 200, and reduce the player count to 80. I understand not wanting people with high pings on the server but it's currently set too harsh.

As jay rightfully said;

Myself and a few other players I spoke to had no issues tonight... then I thought I would investigate further and noticed 200 + pings, So I set the limiter to a random 120 ping and the server started to run a lot smoother

Lewis one of your officers approached me and said he was getting desync and low FPS... I noticed the police in kavala are not impounding abandoned cars and the use of chem-lights is extremely high.

Lets see how it goes over the next week... If it is still bad then pending the donations keep rolling in I will have a look at reducing it to 80 slots and upping a second 80 slot server.

The idea behind 100 slots is to keep it all in one place.

@wilco Jesus christ.. I've told 'em before to impound cars and don't throw thousands of chemlights.. I'll talk to em again about that.

Additionally, the 120 ping thing actually stops some people from playing at all (The US players) as they do tend to get 120+ ping to UK Servers.

The ping limit was removed and we dropped down to 80 slots.
