How long does it take to fix that lagg issue???

longer than we hopped, unfortunately.
But we're advancing, so hopefully after the week-end.

meanwhile, you can try to use a very large value for uploadrate to work around the bug:
<connection_uploadrate>1000000</connection_uploadrate>

we had also big cpu lag with platform server, cpu was on 100 % for some time, nobody could move for a couple of seconds there was not to much traffic / players on the server - about 17 or so . on other times the server was with 20 + players and no lag at all . (normally cpu is about 2- 12 % when server is populated with 17 + players. seems loading normaly does stress the cpu more then actuall playing on the 2- 12 % ranges, but the 100% case was in the middle of a game, as i ve seen at this moment no one connected shortly before.

also we do have messages like "map .... not found" even when the map is on the server.

Here the lags occure always a player joins the server. Big freezes since the last version. It's the same if there are 4 or 20 players connected. This happens since the 14-08 version.

This problem is fixed for the same update.

This problem is fixed for the same update.

You mean it will be fixed at the next update ?

Setting up a Relay server is a bit useless at the moment in Maniaplanet 2.0 as i made a relayserver.

The Relay shows 234 players connected but its empty. When a player joins it goes down by one. If a player disconnects it goes up by one.

almost...
It's actually pretty complex.

But at last, here is a candidate server that should fix the lag on connection problem:
Can you test it and see if it does fix the issue?
http://files.maniaplanet.com/ManiaPlane ... ecated.zip

there's also a new client that you can test with it:
http://files.maniaplanet.com/ManiaPlane ... ecated.zip
(just backup you game exe in Program Files/ and overwrite it with this new one.)

We're not planning on pushing it to everyone until next week, because there are quite a few competitions going on.

(These client and server versions are cross compatible with previous versions.)

Please note that we're also testing a different setting in the bandwith control that will pretty much max out the bandwith you set in the configuration file.
