Galactica 1 server

Post by DaveK »

I'm having some strange experiences this morning.

Several times the pilot list has only shown me to be there even though I know others are flying and were on it a few minutes before. When this happens I can carry on doing what I'm doing but as soon as I try something else I get booted.

Last time I couldn't get back onto Galactica and so after three tries, went for StarPort 6 and ended up back on on Galactica (24.255.255.45)!! When I got booted there was Starbuck and another pilot - when I got back I'm all alone! :)

It's happened again - I lost the target list but managed to fly from Cerulean Hidden to TWZ - got dropped when I tried to take a contract

There are two versions of Galactica on the server list (2&6 on mine) with diff times and IP addresses - only one of them works

I've played a total of about 90 mins today and got dropped four times in this wierd way - any ideas?? ;)

Ghost planets - ghost ships - these have been seen many times, but ghost servers?? :P:P:P:P

I'm away for a coiuple of days but I'll see what it's like after a reboot when I get back - it's probably somethingto do with all the mods I've got (and just can't do without!!) :)

Yeah what DaveK said! We all appreciate your participation by running a server.:) If the server needs work but you need to get to work.... then I think we all support the notion that the server can wait.:)

Just needs some maintenance is all. Starbuck can't be wired to the server all the time.
Be patient people. It will get resolved. :)

:o Well, after blundering into what I thought was phantom fire (against Starbuck, on another server ... testing to see if the problem might be "universal") and being saved from certain death by Busch, I tried to get back onto G1. No luck. I guess SB is doing a bit more troubleshooting. (Btw, if anybody notices another pilot being targeted by a variety of laser fire coming from far away, make sure you load up on CMs before tracking the laser-fire to its source.)

Hi guys.
I now there are some issues with the server. Infact i don't think it has been right since the pc shat itself the other night.

I have tried several re boots but it has made no difference. So after talking to marvin we think the best thing to do is re- install the server program. I will save the station and clan status files. So as soon as i can get hold of mentalparadox who is on his quest for sole i will get him to save and will shut down and delete the server and re install. Hope this works if not the next step will be e mailing vice. and not only that, i miss you guys.......

It's just a thought but . . .

When I was looking for the edge of the Universe it seems that I broke the clan stats. Dingo asked Vice and Vice suggested that being so far out might glitch the programme. It was suggested that I stop since tracking the problem down wasn't really a good use of Vice's expertise or time. I was only messing around anyway and nothing was really changing beyond 100K so I did stop. (it was boring on SP with no-one to chat to! :D )

Recently on the threads a couple of pilots have talked about heading for the edge - one is well beyond Andromeda

good point.

deep space exploration should be done in single player only.
it will screw up the server in multiplayer.
