Post by Iron man »

Hello there,
Sorry This post I've been maybe replied but I would like to know if a slow connection could make this issue?
I used there are a couple of min ago 2 detonator station for destroy one station on olympus prime server. The position of the station was :
998 sx
0sy
1500sz


I want add a precision this is not the first time that happened to me. :o Seems the station doesn't really appreciate I wake them up :cool:

2.788 isn't a valid version for multiplayer connections anymore. Update to the newest and try again. ;)

Also, when using a station detonator, don't aim for the docking bay. Instead, aim for the blue brackets which indicate the center of the station.

Could be your client is out of synch with the server. The server will only allow the destruction sequence to be accepted if both are properly in synch. If either the server or the client are out of synch, then the destroy request won't be allowed. Check your client system to make sure it's not improperly overclocked or otherwise improperly effecting the pace of the game, then you can have the server operator check the same thing on their end (that server might be one that has had a timing issue in the past). You can also check build and destroy cycles on other servers to narrow down if it might be a client issue or server issue. Sounds like one or the other was just off slightly enough to deny the first destroy request, but allow the second.
