Chatlines dropping

May 04, 2006 moldyman link
Yeah, I mentioned this before and momerath heard it too (rather, surprised, if I remember correctly). Chatlines drop from you if you're sending AND the chat going on too. So you fail to recieve or send any chat while you are loading. Just thought I'd poke, since it is damn annoying.

If you chat precisely at the moment that you switch sectors, it gets dropped at your end 100% of the time, and at the server's end about 66% of the time. Without another client looking at the stream of messages, there is no way to know which has happened. (Which makes it far worse than the equivalent bug on the old client, which dropped it on your end 100% of the time but the server always got it.)

Hmm. OK.

Channel chat, right? Or privmsgs too?

Channel, group, guild, I don't know about sector or private msgs...

Everything, Andy. Receiving or sending.

Before it wasn't annoying, really, just one of those things. But now, like Solra says, you just don't know. And you always got messages too, if delayed.
