Map connecting problems
« on: November 28, 2011, 07:25:20 pm »
I've always had to deal with Bad tokens and the dreadful "Failed to connenct to map server.." ever since I joined FH. It's been rather bad lately in Flourite and Bonfire, but you live with the frustration. Bad tokens are even un-avoidable sometimes in maps with a lot of custom meshes, but again.. it's no biggie.

My maps have always worked, until recently. My members try to go into our one map the Laboratory and get "Can not connect to map server.." Every time. They don't get a chance to load and end up loosing that character, even when they delete the .fhm file for it. :I I don't understand why it's no different then my other maps and the ones it's connected to. It worked fine all up until a week ago.

I don't want people loosing characters over my map- x: Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can try and fix it or get rid of the map all together next map update.

The first things is that when there are ALOT of people in the plains or bonfire it somtimes crashes FH so you want get it.Some people have started going in the plains at special times so they can dont get stuck Sadly its just Fh Most people get about 7-8-9 bad tokens when going into the plains but then you can not get any at times :( Its annoying but its not just you

The second thing.This can happen sometimes the map EATS your char and no matter what you do you can never get your char out.Most of the time if you just leave it in time your char will come work some random day XD

Other times you might just have to remake the map.Most of the time thats the best idea

Hope it helps.Sorry if it does not

The server probably need a quick restart and it should work somewhat smoother, but yes, these bad tokens will always be there.

The characters are not forever lost though, as soon as there has been a server restart the user chars are usable again, not sure why or how, but sometimes the map processes gets stuck, and whenever anyone tries to enter, the character gets stuck on the loading screen and will stay there no matter what you try.

"Failed to connect to map server" Usually means that they will be stuck and bad tokens usually just prevents you from getting in the map temporarily when there's lots of users in one single map.

Should be able to restart the server shortly and the chars and maps will work again until the next time the maps get stuck that is.

WOuld you mind letting me know when or if you reboot the servers? My roleplay members keep pestering me about this x-x; and if the server has already been rebooted, then they're still stuck and it's a map problem :c

This is actually all my fault, I completely forgot about this thread and I will make sure it gets sorted anytime soon.
