ze_pilot, I have no logs for you at the moment, sorry (not at home) but since last patch in nearly every game, the peoples disappear in the lobby! Trust us, there is some bug seriously! Its maybe related to the "move"-option, but last time I hosted a game I moved noone and 1 or 2 guys disappeared for the joined players nevertheless. We were able to start the game as usual.

the issue is, people (except the host) don't see all people and don't click on x because they think, the game is not full ... and on the other hand they can't see the ratings/balance. So with some effort in chat you can bring people to click x and the game starts ... not good

could be somewhere related to a refresh that never happens!?

I have established that going "observe" makes everyone re-appear..

I don't see how it can be related to a patch.

Either way, it's a host problem : you don't have the "join" command, meaning that the game problem doesn't exists anymore.

You can check yourself :

Code:: info: LOBBY: starting with local uid of 23541 [XBX-Lucky7] info: GPGNET: entering lobby state. info: GPGNET: sending nat packet to 91.121.153.175:30351 info: GPGNET: sending nat packet to 91.121.153.175:30351 info: GPGNET: received nat packet from 91.121.153.175:30351 info: GPGNET: setting nat handler to 0x00000000 info: CNetTCPBuf::Read(): recv() failed: WSAEINTR info: Run time: 0h00m07s

The game ran for 7 seconds, no packet send to anyone (91.121.153.175 is the server for NAT), not a single "join" command.

I mean, you did not receive the order to connect to someone at all, so it's pretty normal

You are not connecting to anything in that log.

You need to post logs, screenshot don't help me at all.

The people disappearing are probably due to the host using the "move to" option (can be bugged).

The popup at the end is because you connect through a proxy, it's not an problem per-se unless you had nil to these people.
If so, you NEED to post logs : viewtopic.php?f=3&t=192

Connection issues since last patch.

2013-04-02T17:30:47+02:00

Hi,

So even though I have all the correct ports open etc, I have ALWAYS struggled slightly with con issues. That said, reconnecting 1 or 2 times fixed that. Annoying but meh.

Since the last patch this happens;

First, the usual BS, to be expected -

Then, I seem to connect to everyone, but some people in the lobby disappear (even though they are still there) - This is a new problem that has not happenned before.

Then exiting the lobby finally brings this pop-up - - This is also new.

I know I am not alone in having connection problems even though the correct router ports are open, and until now its been bareable. But being in a lobby and not being able to see whos in what seat, pings and whether I am connected or not makes the game practically unplayable.

Help appreciated.
