So after a long an grueling process of troubleshooting and narrowing things down, we've finally got the RoF2 zoning (desync) issue resolved which should also resolve a slew of other buggy type behavior as well since it involves changes to netcode.

Zoning Issues:
  • A HUGE thanks to Haynar for making the changes on the netcode to fixing the zoning issue with RoF2 clients.
  • Haynar is also responsible for the zone speed up changes that were also made in the process of trying to narrow these issues down
  • For those who don't know who Haynar is, he's been a major player in P99's codebase as well as the Tak (EQ Mac) project, he stays mostly behind the scenes. Please give him your thanks in this thread, he spent a lot of time getting to the bottom of this issue
  • Another huge thanks to Dimurwar for night after night of grueling testing. I've also had folks such as Mixlor and a few others that have helped with this lengthy process. Once again we appreciate how willing our players are to help us troubleshoot difficult issues

T10:
  • In-zone death has been removed due to desync issues being resolved

I've also fixed quite a few crashes that I've spotted in our logs over the past few days as well.

Enjoy!
