    Or how about trying to type that in English with less of an attitude.

    i know its a pain for cbs..

    i might have had some time, but as one of our servers is down, broken hard disk and with a bit of bad luck both disks might be dead (which means we have to redo all servers on that box) it will be a major pain.

    Hopefully if i can get the box to "live" again, i can do cbs stuff tonight.. but i cannot be sure. After a hard day of work and fixing all kinds of stuff for LZ, i want to play a game too and relax.

    the update rate was changed with a tf2 update, it needs a closer look though. but i really need to find a proper way to kick high ping players or people that warp around.

    updaterate above 67 has no use. infact:

    Var's with values above these have no use:
    rate 100000
    cl_cmdrate 67
    cl_updaterate 67
    cl_interp_ratio 2


    cl_interp 0.034 // this value gets smaller with higher updaterate. its formula below.

    cl_interp = (cl_interp_ratio / cl_updaterate) + (jitter * 2)

    and I'd say minimum values are:
    rate 50000
    cl_cmdrate 33
    cl_updaterate 33
    cl_interp_ratio 2

    with:
    cl_interp 0.065

    default:
    rate 3500 or 5000 or 7500 or 10000 // depends on steam connection settings.
    cl_cmdrate 30
    cl_updaterate 20
    cl_interp_ratio 2
    cl_interp 0.100


    with the server having a frame rate of 66 "ticks" or "frames" having a higher updaterate then the 67 isn't going to give you any extra. As nowadays its hardcoded in the server, there is no use in trying to go higher.

    In regards to high ping, any higher ping then 70 is imo a waste of my playing experience.

    well, we didnt attack you because your english, but because of your attitude. your way of writing felt really harsh. It's like you kicked the door open and started shouting while you could just quitely opening the door and ask things politely. even though you might not have meant to portray yourself like that, your way of writing can really affect how people read it.

    For example:
    "and pls DEACTIVATE CBS
    hes always invisible
    thats a kind of hack and not funny"

    Could have been written like this:
    "Also, I noticed there is a bug with the CBS, he's always invisible. Would it be possible to deactivate him until you are able to fix him? thanks in advance! ^^"

    It gives a much better vibe than using capitals etc.

    But anyway, as snelvuur has explained, stuff will be fixed and looked into as soon as possible. :)

    CBS is fixed, and about the high ping kicker..

    <a class="postlink" href="https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=79147" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=79147</a>
    doesn't work.. tried it, its rubish.

    I dont mind if people get a bit upset if something is not fixed...

    But, if they dont even use the tools that are there for them.. there is <a class="postlink" href="http://support.lethal-zone.eu" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://support.lethal-zone.eu</a>

    I had to make <a class="postlink" href="http://support.lethal-zone.eu/browse/SG-88" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://support.lethal-zone.eu/browse/SG-88</a> myself.

    If someone makes a ticket, they can add themself to the watchers list or post a comment on it and they get a e-mail automatic.

    Hmmmm perhaps people are sometimes inpatience, but thats also what people can do and it's indeed really annoying when something is invisible on the server which make some people upset. Just understand the situation sometimes if people are like that.

    But anyways snelvuur tried a lot of ping kickers and a lot didn't work, so what can we do about that? Hopefully there is a working ping kicker, because on saxton hale servers it's really annoying when you play against saxton with a high ping.

    still... no excuse to blow your high horn :roll:

    we have a !admin, we have the forum, steam... if there is a bug or something odd, we will know soon enough. if not let us know and just keep it civil... if my boss shouts at me i just shout back!

    But the horn wasn't that high, imo it's not a big issue..
