Trapped in Azek

May 06, 2006 dbradhud link
Help! Whenever I try to leave Azek, I'm warped back to my starting station, then booted by the server. Whatever it was, I didn't do it. I'm innocent, I tell ya.

Broma-Ba Slick

[Edit: now it happens even when I try to travel within Azek. I have tried restarting the application with no success.]

OS X 10.3.9 G4 powerbook

OS X. 4.6 , G5 .

Same as Broma. At pherona WH, pressed enter . Me , Moth and cargo just " appear" in home station sedina 2 , no messages or anything. client quits.
Restart . buy taur to go back to pherona. fly through bractus wh , fly to 3000m to jump, press enter . Me , Taur , cargo back at sed 2 . No messages client Quits.

Odd stuff, will report more .

Been happening for over four hours now. I'm having no luck finding any sort of pattern. Sometimes I can make several jumps and use a wh. Sometimes it happens on the first jump. Always returns me to my homed station and then the server boots me.

Connection closed by server

Ping seems normal , no idea whats happening....

That's consistent with my errors.log. It simply states "Connction closed by server."

Does it happen when you hit enter a bunch of times instead of just once? Or.. something? Hitting enter right after you warp in?

It's getting a spurious "Activate" trigger, and that seems to cause it although being warped home is a very strange response to that.. Anyway, fixing it.
May 06, 2006 dbradhud link
No. I'm not hitting enter more than once, and only to leave the sector, not after entering.
May 06, 2006 dbradhud link
Would holding the enter key down while warping have any effect? I generally do that as I travel around storm sectors.
May 06, 2006 a1k0n link
Yes, that's probably it; you're effectively hitting it 30 times a second or so then.

This should now be basically fixed for empty sectors; more popular sectors will get the change later on.

thanks for such a quick response.

I do have a habit of plotting round storms then just holding enter to perform jumps quickly , so it may well be that .

cheers

Well, it's good to know at least two users do that, so we can plan for it to not break. :)
May 06, 2006 dbradhud link
Thanks a1k0n. I'll just lightly tap my enter key from now on...
May 07, 2006 davejohn link
Seems to be fine now

Thanks again for such a quick fix
