quailgg94 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 ok so i made a server. downloaded everything avorion offered , even hosted it off my own machine and allowed a portforward for the game. and it was cool i had like.... 10 out of 15 playing everyone was teaming up killing stuff. Even offered starting materials for new players like 10k of iron / titanium and 30k$.... after a while i noticed my internet speed was being capped. turns out someone ddosed me . what im asking is HOW do i keep them from doing this to my host machine. im trying to have a fun time with people and during that time they do this to make my game lag. i had around 30 ping. aswell as everyone else , then the pings went up to around 200 . and bounced up to 500 ping. causing the game to be Just like the average server . PC specs amd FX- 6 core cpu 4.5 ghz 32 gigs ram gigbit internet pci slot and a pci SSD card, at time of crash PC usage 65% cpu 75% ram ssd & 10% active to 60% active internet was not even hitting past 200 mbps down and maybe 40 mbps up and i usually host my mincraft server i play with my friends on... sometimes their's 50 player count but i stopped that because of recent issues. i just dont understand how to keep people from ddosing my connection.

thedamngod Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 It's possible nobody has ddos'd you, but if you hand our your IP to random people then you can't guarantee that there isn't an idiot among them. The game currently sends its data uncompressed, so that might be a limiting factor for you. koonschi said, that data will be compressed in the future. More spread out players will also likely increase the network load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devious Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Make sure to have --use-steam-networking 1 in your server start script, the normal protocol is very unstable. I had players getting 500-15k ping without it, seems like DDoS but isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
