Lag on my own server.

Hi guys, this may have been mentioned before, but i couldn't find anything from searching. I'm running FLserver and FL on the same machine (I just want to explore from level 1 and not be bothered with main missions). But here's what's wrong: i'm still getting LAG! How can this be happening. Whenever i hosted Q3, UT or just about any other MP game, i had no lag whatsoever. But i'm getting it with FL (teleporting, ****y ship movement, etc.) Is it the "unstable" net code i've read about or what? Thanks in advance.

There is a known issue with server memory leak, and I believe it has been addressed in the patch, which isn't available publicly yet...

I'm having the same problem with my server....I have a gig of PC2700 RAM, so I am able to drag it out to a full restart every 2 days or so.

The Patch has addressed a variety of lag issues....but it's unfortunately not ready for public release yet. Or so I have been told.

Check the Server Patch thread...and also once in a while, jump onto the DA Patch server...There will be updates on there about the patch.
