Majistics, that is totally normal and it would be nice if you maybe asked some questions before you did what seems to be your knee-jerk reaction to anything you perceive as a problem, which is jump on here and scream.
There is always a 'Primary Player' in any battle that is responsible for running the vital pages that make battle happen. If that player exists the battle, it needs to time down a bit before it transfers to a new player. The timer has worked in this manner since the fall of the year 2000.

2nd post: yea, was pissed cuz it also screwed me out of move phase!
1st post was because i got an error screen for a timer screen 4 out of 6 rnds!
You want to force us to LW or our soldiers aquire alzhiemers!
I want to LW!!! Really, I do! I don't have a big problem about loosing units. Until it's caused by errors all over my screen. The yea I get pissed.
I deal with the changes you've made over the yrs without much of a problem. But over say, over the last 6 months, it's been change after change. And yea, i got majorly screwed cash-wise (nev type and real) over the SOI change that took place! And am still trying to re-coop from it in the empire that was affected so badly. And after a week of bs back and forth with bill about trying to relocate, i pretty much gave in with the piddly assed stuff I was offered for compensation. Then for days after, it would be "welllll shit!, didn't think about that... that just cost me big time!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
3-4+ yrs of promises of reducing lagg has gotten old!
Lag has always been my 1st and foremost Complaint,
so hopefully we'll see this New Harware soooon!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I can't imagine how any of these high lvl emps can actually do anything, when I see all kinds of Lag with no more than 7 units on the battle field.

I just completed one of the largest wars in Neveron history and can say lag has greatly improved recently. The changes to the database are really starting to pay off. There are lag spikes, as always, but throughout the day it really is not that bad.
The biggest obstacle to me LWing atm is the IE lockup bug. Once that is fixed (hint to WWS here!  ) LW will be much smoother.
Will neveron *ever* be lag free? I doubt it. So look at the good, and start offering solutions for the bad. But above all, stop the whining, else you are contributing to the problem instead of making it better.

It is an unknown conflict with a recent IE update and some of our code. We are not yet sure what whte issue is because we have never personally had the problem, making it tough to debug.

WW, I'd be more than happy to help troubleshoot this with you. I don't know what kind of info you need, but let me know and we'll tackle it. This really is a big problem for many players and is a source of great frustration.
Thanks,
CaBhaal

Yep. Highly frustrating. I reckon that about 90 percent of my recent losses are to be blamed on IE lockups in battles where I clearly had the upper hand. It is a royal pain in the ass if you have your opponent by the balls and then he gets back into business because 2 or 3 of your mechs are sitting ducks in melee. Only thing I can tell about the way the bug kicks in is that it happens when Nev is loading something and you dare to scroll the map at the same time by dragging the scroll bar with your mouse. vertical scrolling by means of the mouse wheel isn't a problem, afaics

With KD on that.
The lockup clears away after a while, sometimes scrolling the wheel helps it appears.
Login in in another window aleviates, but can in total take up to a minute.

While I am not sure of the cause, I am sure of the symptoms. Whatever the bug is, it causes your CPU usage to hit 100%, hence the lockup.
If I let it wait long enough, the map starts to reload, but Hex by hex....very slowly. A refresh of the page will reload the map normally.
To help out (and maybe find a common thread if the rest of you post the same info) I have the following:
CPU - AMD Athlon 64, 3200+
IE ver - 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519, 128 bit Cipher strength.
Recent XP Updates
I'm hoping we a common thread that helps WW track down the problem, like only Athlon's get the bug. Also keep including what you were doing in Nev when you get the bug. I've gotten the lockup out of battle, while watching duels and preplacing units.
