Connection Timeout
 

Hello
Since the latest patch launch my squad had not returned to fly online, but yesterday launched a coop mission on the Steppe map and joined 3 pilots. We were able to choose the aircraft and begin the pre-flight and warming up, but when we took a few minutes (usually we were already on the runaway or taking off) client pilots disconnected receiving a Timeout message.
Someone has this problem?
It can be a port problem?
What ports are required to open? when I launch server there is no server port settings ...
Before this patch this problem wasn´t there... we could fly without any issue.

Any ideas?
Attached image problem from a client pilot.

Thanks in advance

Also make sure nobody is recording, as I get Timeout errors every time I try to record a .trk

Thank you for your quick response...
I´ll check the system firewall and the router port configuration. This was my first idea...

It Also can be what Captain Doggles says... When it happened I was recording the track mission. I don´t think the problem is The launcher issue, because the sim don´t crash. I can continue flying, the sim works properly, and the client´s can close the timeout window and reconecting another server without problem.

Will try without recording... and recording the track some client pilot.

I´ll post the results.

Then probably this is a recording issue. Mr.X mentioned that he can record a track without timingout on ATAG if he records one long track per flight (or per session?). Others say that recording a track to a 2nd HDD helps. But I would not do it on server side. Let clients record and they can reconnect if unsuccessful.

BTW how do you fly coop? Do you use naryv's script, spawn at spawn areas or can actually select existing planes in a list on the right hand side from the map?

Yes, it could be a recording issue. I´ll see... we´ll do some test´s this weekend and will post a report.

I create server and the client´s connect and can select aircraft from right list of the map.
Will test it again in other maps...

Thanks for your comments Ataros. Your opinion´s are always wellcome ;-)

Well...

The tests were successful. If I don´t record the track we can fly without problems. Yesterday another pilot recorded the track and no problems was detected.´The mission was successful and an enemy aeródrome was bombed and destroyed with our escort.

It confirm that the server hoster have some issues in coop mode (no dedicated server) when record tracks.

Yesterday evening around 7:00pm EST there was problems with steam. It disconnected me from my test server and I was unable to get Clod running on the server or client for a little while.
