Disconnected during map changes problem
« on: March 27, 2008, 08:07:38 pm »
Hi, I've tried a search of the forum for anything similar and come up with nothing, so forgive me if I'm asking something that has already been answered.


When playing on multiplayer server, everything runs fine until the game ends, everyone is "Ready" and the next map loads up.
The map load screen shows, the bars "Buildable models, character models etc." all show up and fill, and then when it looks like the map/game is about to show up, I get disconnected with an error.

Something along the lines of "A reliable command was cycled out."
(I can get exactly what it says if necessary, but I didn't have a pen+paper / a good memory to hand... o.o)

This isn't game breaking, because I can still rejoin the server from the main menu, but I have to go through all the loading again, and it means I start the game a bit behind from everyone else (especially considering my slow computer takes a while to load the map.)

Another couple of things -

- I haven't changed anything apart from adding a new HUD, and that was after the problem started.
- The problem seemingly started happening out of nowhere.
- I run on MAC OSX if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance for any help.

your computer is loading the map too slowly, either get a faster computer or play on servers that have a workaround for this "bug"

Ok let's plan it out. Asva, you are nub, go sit on rets, I will build, you two go feed like hell, you go pwn their asses, and everyone else camp in the hallway, roger?

Hah, that's pretty horrible and slightly embarrasing.  :-X

Thanks anyway.
