ATAG Dedicated Server is up!

I noticed today there seems to be alot of messages saying Ai gunner/bombardier/pilot of (bombers) crashed etc etc on the server..

These are not engaged in combat because there were only a few players online, and we kind of knew what each other were doing..

Are these bombers flying into each other when they spawn or taxing?, there were no radar messages before these crashes..

I spent probably 30/45 mins flying over the channel without getting a radar message with contacts yet in between there must of been approx 10-15 bombers lost due to what was happening above.

any ideas Bliss?

I think it is the way the script gets rid of landed/despawned aircraft. Essentially the script will kill the aircraft and the message shows up. To test grab a 110 or whatever you like, spawn it in then go back and spawn in another aircraft at the same airfield. You will see your old aircraft sitting there and about 10-20 seconds, a guess, you will see the first aircraft you spawned in disappear followed by a message stating AI in 110 were killed or similar message.

Hmm, The only thing is these bombers didnt do any missions as we would of seen them or we would of had radar msgs for them before hand?

And it certainly wasnt players spawning these aircraft in as like i said there were only 5-6 off us flying..

strange

Bliss.. was it the AI that was causing the stutters tonight or just player numbers..

There was a lot on so maybe that?

On a side note I read something in a message regarding turning down the AI..please dont, you only have to look at the scores to see that alot of people are not finding any contacts lol...thats a big map and even with 60+ in there tonight i wasnt coming across loads of contacts, quite the opposite tbh..

If there wasnt as many AI bombers as there was i would of give up flying around trying to find cons..before you arrived it was mentioned by others too

It might just be me and everyone is skimming the ocean but i dont see much happening between 3.5/6k

Custom Skins? The download can be switched off from the server side?
If not, should announce warning occasionally in order not to be used then.
