If you go to an ocean realm (they’re the largest realms) and sit still, without moving the map… hopefully your fps will be 25. This is how fast Flash is running, it will try to run at 25fps and it’ll use up to 100% of your CPU to go as fast as possible. You can see your frames per second (fps) in Ironfell, just above the mini-map. Someones laptop was running out of memory, but they didn’t want to close the other apps they were running, so they upgraded their ram (from 2GB to 4GB) and that fixed their lag. If you’re running out of memory, closing other applications will help. Don’t be surprised if Flash or your browser are maxing your CPU usage, that’s normal. On Windows right-click the taskbar, then click on Start Task Manager. You can watch these on a Mac by opening > Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor. Ironfell doesn’t need a super fast, low latency connection, so getting a better internet connection *might* help this, but only if you have a really bad internet connection.įlash Lag… when Flash, your browser or your computer run out of CPU or memory. There isn’t much we can do about this (unless you’re google and can buy your own fibre trunk lines). It’ll look just like server lag, you’ll be able to pan, but units won’t respond. Messages get lost or take 10 or 20 seconds to go from your computer to the server. Not just your connection at home, but all the connections between you and the server. Internet Lag… the internet is flakey sometimes. If you can figure out something that makes this happen and let me know, I’ll pay out lots of bonus Iron or wood. Its always caused by something happening in the game though, like moving 50+ units onto roads in a particular way causes it at the moment. Wait a few seconds and this lag usually goes away. There’s a bug with roads that causes this, which i’ll hopefully fix today. Each server instance has about 2000 realms on it… so if this happens in any of those realms, it affects all the other realms on the same server. You will be able to pan around the realm, but no units move or respond. Server Lag… something happens on the server that takes the CPU to 100%. Theres different types of lag and lots of things you can do to help fix the lag. There’s a lot of confusion about lag in Ironfell.
