Other ZM Server Added Back
Jul 02, 2008 - 8:51 PM
Posted by MasterMind
Since ive discovered what was causing the major lag spikes, ive decided to add back the other Zombie Master server.

I won't bother adding the other servers though since they were empty 90% of the time.

This new server is also updated to what you all wanted; that is a 24/7 tetris server!

ZM Server Lag
Jun 26, 2008 - 6:32 PM

I'm well aware that the ZM server's have been very laggy lately. I'm still trying to figure out what's causing it. I have discovered that explosions (from explosive barrels, etc.) cause massive lag spikes so i replaced them with non-explosive barrels on every map.

Lego released an application that allows you to build stuff (far beyond what you could do in RL with a kit), and when your finished you can print out a list of all the parts and order them.

It's like retro Garry's Mod!
