Opinions concerning LancerGuard V1.03

The server forum is typically dead so I thought I would ask here where a majority of players post.

Have you had any experience playing on servers running LancerGuard V1.03?

Is it stable?


I need to find out because Freelancer Universe 24/7 runs GREAT until the modders/cheaters show up. They push the lag times into the hundreds. It is really making things bad for the "good" customers.

The flip side: I don't want to install something that will further degrade performance or provide anymore "unhappiness" to the "good" customers.

Thanks,

I just want to make the server as good as possible.

Right now, 13 people, 70 msec lag...

normally, 16 people gets 40 if that.

cheaters and modders .... screwing with the good players.

Couldn't find a place to post this, not even at the 707th's forum. OK maybe I'm blind but I'll do it here.

My server runs Lancerguard. I got the latest from TLR but I don't know the version (I'm at work and I'll check later). I had a buddy of mine test out the server with some cheats (otherwise known as mods on modding servers). Speed and gun hacks worked. Ship and cloak hacks did not. I beleive he could buy and mount it but not undock. When he tried the server booted him like the FL patch boots. I had zero stability problems and he was just kicked off, he could log right back on. I only happen to have two other players (besides him and I) on at the same time but server lag was 4 msec at it's worse, quite low. Hard to translate to servers that are faster and have more players I realize.

Now if only I could get more players. Maybe give a UPS away for winning a contest or something? I work for a UPS company so I can get a few...
