Server Hitch Detected?

[Joernson aka Wildboyz]

Just continued my single player setting and after some time a red message "Server Hitch Detected" followed by some other words I can't really remember (something with "Beaver") popped up on the top of my screen.

Does anyone know what this is? Something I need to worry about?

It's not a dedicated server or something. Just a normal single player campaign.

Just had the same message in my single player setting "server hitch detected" but with "female montage" something... Just left the game, just in case, I don't know what to make of it.

Yea I just had the same message show up

[TimeKeeping]

Just had one pop up in official and it said server hitch then something about harpoons

[Dentic]

Had the same problem with my dedicated server.
After a wild dino wipe the message appeared with a hint to female carcha.

normally nothing happens when you get those, but make sure to save your game frequently. Had it happen yesterday with a deepsea lootcrate and after i collected it and played for another 2 hours, i could no longer log into my singleplayer save since the game was unable to locate the deepsea lootcrate (bcs i ofc collected it like a greedy lootgoblin). Had to do a rollback to the save 4 hours prior. Learned from that to just let the mosa have his lootbox.

Had this happen today, are single player games being messed with?

The single player experience gets neglected.
As far as I've seen it doesn't seem to do weird things (as long as it's not a deep sea loot crate you just picked up for some reason).
When I get the message it's usually something about unknown egg dropping or a drop explosion.
I stop what I'm doing, save, log out, log in, and might not see the message again for days.
Who knows eh lol.

Hey has anyone found a fix to this? Been experiencing it about every 2-3 minutes every time I log in to single player along with a severe lag. I don’t have any mods or anything

I usually just ignore it and nothing happens. I have no idea what it is but it doesn't cause a crash or anything if you ignore it, it seems to be related to mods. Just in case make sure you save the game frequently: You can never know with ark.

server hitch basically is a brief interruption in the games normal operation, which can cause it to pause or slow due to increased load. Could be from a mass of dinos, projectiles, or other things that require server sided physic calculations such as coordinates, vector forces, stats, ai interaction and so on.
