Update v9.9 Onscreen Hands, Networking Indicators & Updated UI!
Author: Kimiko,
published 7 years ago,
A new feature in this update is Onscreen Hands! This allows you to see and play from your hand from any position. This is great for those who prefer to have their hands in a static position on screen. Now everyone can have the best seat!
We also focused on figuring out where any networking issues are coming from, so we have added networking indicators next to your names on the top right, so you know exactly what’s going on.
Type /debug in chat and take screenshots of your readout if any networking issues come up. Use the following networking chat commands to help make adjustments when clients are connected.
[h1][b]Network Commands[/b][/h1][list]
[*] /networktickrate 20-120 (default 60) - this is how often the network will transmit data each second.
[*] /networkpackets 1-5 (default 2) - how many packets per tick to send out. Higher values make it so more objects can be synchronized each tick. (Host only command)
[*] /networkinterpolate 0-5 (default 1.1) - the amount of time for interpolation, increasing this value increases smoothness but also increases input lag for the clients. (Client only command)
[*] /networkquality 0-2 (0=high, 1=medium, 2=low) - changes the overall quality presets.
If you are having networking issue try:
/networkquality 2
This will require 4 times less bandwidth than the default.
Restarting the game will reset these commands to default.
