Help with sector jumping.

Mar 29, 2004 Inu-Kun link
I am not able to jump out of system 4 at all. I have tried almost every thing, from waiting 20 minutes to logging on and off really fast and even with new charecters. when I start a new charecter I can jump to s4 from s1 but i can not jump back again, or so system 8 or system7. what else can I do to help fix this problem.
Thank you for you help

What happens when you try to warp? Does it say "Press the Activate key" when you get to the zone? Does it display a wormhole animation and you get stuck at the loading screen, or does it just not let you warp? Are you flying towards the jump waypoints until the HUD indicator says "Activate now"?

It's probably the same problem that I and others have experienced ... and it's the worst in the nation sectors I've allready filed a bug report

it's basically like this
/me clicks activate
loading screen comes up
after a few _minutes_ the "entering sector blab" message appears the bar appears and the sector loads as usual
/me enters new sector

as I said it's worst when leaving a nation sector where I was sometimes stuck in a gate for over 10 minutes ... else loading is instant or it takes a few secs to start loading ...

/verbose 9 log is here ...

for me it started yesterday though somebody ingame said it was happening earlier too

Don't know if it's related but since yesterday, when entering stations, I float helplessly in the dock for a few seconds before the station menu comes up .. I crashed into them a few times that way ...

Hmm. Well, I guess I didn't fix this then. I'll continue investigating.

EDIT: Oops, yeah, I see the problem now. Fixing...

Thank you very much. I can jump freely from sector to sector now. It would freeze in the loading screen and it would never start to load. If I was to press 'u' and then 'u' again I could see all the people in the sector I tried to jump out of. If I were to log off and on again i would be at the jump gate at the system i was trying to jump out of. seems to be working fine now. alittle lag but thats nothing like the jump bug there was.
I was stuck there for 4 days straight.
