Multiplayer Problem with the Up/download

[HardstyleGamer]

Why sinks the down/upload speed every time?
When will we not have to use peer to peer?

Pleasy Fix the buq and discuss with valve or something to change this thing from localhost.

Dedicated servers will come when version 0.13 does get released.

Are you talking about the time getting longer everytime you load up a map in singleplayer, or is the transfer speed slower everytime?

Valve has nothing to do with the Multiplayer of this game.

achja ich weiß das du deutsch bist daher ^^



No i mean the servers ^^ I mean comunity servers or a better Peer to peer host.. so that you not have to load the whole map...

I mean the transfer speed slowers every time... i have a bad ethernet so its ♥♥♥♥♥♥ for me when it takes 40 hours... by the way i have 8 mb's download but only get 1,3 thats ok but it sinks to 0 bit's per second very fast.

I want to play with my friend and because my ethernet won't work with port thing there i have to use hamachi.. so if you can help me i would be realy joyfull

As far as I remember all players need the full map with all the things on it all the time because it gets calculated locally. So it only needs to sync the user inputs instead of transfering every single little moving item on belts for example. The overhead would be enormous on a largy factoy overwise.

You always have to load the whole map, since everything is "there" all the time. There are no parts of the map which go to an "idle" state as soon as you move far away from it.

Then you wouldn't have fun to play on a dedicated server either.

I though would suggest to try to play with other hosts, to see if a better connection on their end would improve your experience.

so there is no way tho make the world really random? Like Minecraft? That the sync not takes so long

The world is procedural generated (random). But everything you build is constantly active.

You therefore only "download" the part of the map you all discovered.

thats clear... but why does the download/upload always go down to 0 from 1,3 Kbit/s?

When is it going down? During the download or close to the end of the download?

He starts to joining... than its high stands there a minute .. than it goes down very fast... and then nothing changes when it comes to 0. After a few minutes it begins again... mostly we give up because we want to paly something and not sit the whole time there

To me it sounds like an unstable connection - I though would mail the developers (http://www.factorio.com/help) or write a post in the "Bugs" subforum.
