Delays on Health Bars and Spells / 203>509? - Ultima One - 02-09-2013 10:39 AM

Hi,

A lot of players have been reporting that when dragging someones health bar, there is a long delay before the name shows up.

Also, when casting spells with their usual macros, they find a bit more of a delay than normal before it actually casts it..

My players have this thing of knowing time spells to the millisecond, and notice these things right away.

Sounds like some config issue? I am not sure...

AND players using 203 report that macros 'process' quicker than they do on 509.. I cant understand why they would, but I know 509 has a lot more macro options, but cant see 'CastSpell' having been changed since 203. Anyone else see this?

Guess no one else gets this? Seems just a handful of players... must be a script issue >_<

only difference really was the Packet Priority and Tooltip mode (it used to be 1, not sure why mine was on 0). But changed those.. will see if it shows any changes.

Think it might just be the mass of things we have collected over the years added to cast spell triggers and so on, some needs removing as it is stuff we stopped using about 6 years ago.. lol
