Spring stopps accepting commands from me

Post by Bhaal »

Sometimes i am getting some crazy bug.

I still can read what others are writing, but i can t write anything or control my units....

it s like the game stopps accepting commands from me.

if i can remember this happened only 3 or 5 times since the last spring update.

i think i only got this while playing AA - but i think this is not especially the mod because i only play AA ;)

system: amd athlon 64 3000+, 1gb ddr, ati radeon 9800pro
win xp prof + all service packs and updates

Had exactly the same, when having connection problems.

E: maybe it has to do with these DNS failures around?

I was told it was command buffer overflow issue... don't build your unit farms in one order... don't give orders to too many units at a time... don't give too many units orders to build too many buildings...

I don't know if this is the whole answer but keeping my orders under a factor of 25 is usually okay (1 unit*25 buildings or 5 units 5 buildings)... you can experiment with pushing this limit (I know I've built 100 DTs with 20 cons and not having an issue...)
