kmead Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Just as the title says, are there any servers up today? I have booted up several times and not seen any, am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 kmead, you may be experiencing the same kind of "empty server list" bug that nirse and poesel71 are having (see: here ). Are you, by chance, running Ubuntu or another Debian-based Linux? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaytoniousRex Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 Actually, aittam, weren't you experiencing a different problem - getting "stuck" when trying to refresh the server list, as described here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmead Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 I am using OSX and have not seen a server available since Friday night. I tried every hour or so on Saturday and have just tried again to no avail. I am using the latest version on both my Macs. Any suggestions?

kmead Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 Mmmm, found a server this morning at about 10 am. I'll join a game a bit later. Wonder what changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmead Posted April 9, 2006 Author Share Posted April 9, 2006 230pm and now no servers. Whats the deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 kmead, nothing's changed regarding this problem. Since you catch sight of a server every now and then I would bet that the problem is that the timeout on the server list is too short for you. Did you have this problem prior to updating to 0.9.43, or is it new with 0.9.43? (I am assuming you have updated to 0.9.43). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aittam Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 yhop got plenty yesterday late afternoon CET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmead Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 This was new on 9.43 and what I have found is if you are persistent (as in night of the refresh monkeys) the servers will eventually show. Its just a waiting game. I have had to restart the game several times in order to get on. I did get on shortly after my last post yesterday.

ClaytoniousRex Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 night of the refresh monkeysThat was a *terrible* film - so much needless violence. We've raised the connection timeout on the server list for the upcoming 0.9.44 release. Please post again once you've updated to 0.9.44 and report whether this has helped or not. We're still trying to find some way to reproduce the problem here but haven't had any luck yet so we really need (and greatly appreciate) your feedback on this problem!

kmead Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 I continue to have trouble connecting to the servers, more so with with one machine and very little with the other. Both are Mac OSX 10.4.6. One is a Mac Mini 1.5 and the other is a MDD Dual 867. The dual processor machine is the more problematic. Both connect to the net using the same wireless router with Apple Airport cards. Both machines have the latest version of Drop Team. Not insurmountable but definitely a bit frustrating. Thanks.
