Time outs..

Post by ShadowDragon »

Anyone else dealing with time outs on the game? I deal with them 2-3 times a day. Any idea why that's happening?

It might be your internet connection. If you get a lot of drops from your connection, it could be interfering with time-outs on the game... rather The Cause Of.
I think my game time-outs happen when I step away for about a half hour. Other than that, I don't know or remember the rules that define the time-out.

It's not on my end, it's on the game's end according to the pop up, BlackOak. According to the pop up it's an issue with Cloud-something.. I can't remember the name now.. It never lasts that long and always comes back but I just wanted to give a heads up to the admins that something was going on.

Sometimes the pause|break button on the keyboard can catch it. It will pause the screen with whatever's on it. Or it should. If you can manage it, it might offer some further insight for our admins. Even if you just relate it word-for-word.

You could also try the print screen button, then paste what got copied into paint or word. Sometimes that also works.

Cloudflare. It's the CDN we use.

Ok, thanks, Tom. No clue what a 'CDN' is, I assume it's some kind of server so I guess it's on them.

Content Delivery Network. Some errors you see are from when our servers can't reach their servers. It's fairly complicated but the simple answer is "computers"
