Just a little feedback about eXpansion:
Played yesterday night at an eXpansion controlled server and it looked really nice just one thing happened: Everytime if a new player connects to the server my screens gots an microstutter, only one time, not really stuttering. It´s just a lil small lag, the screen freezes for a millisecond. Not good if you are really close before a jump or something else
I don´t know if it´s the eXpansion or the server or whatever.. Server was named "eXpansion" controlled by xbx

Hey, thanks a lot.

We will investigate the small freeze because as you say it might have quite some impact on your game.

Thanks for the report

Hey, thx. Here you can find my system specs > http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... 50#p206605

I guess (hope^^) it´s not my system, there should be enough power for the game
Posted this issue because i did not see this behavior on other servers (but didn´t know which controller is used there)

Well if that specs aren't enougt I should throw my 4 years old laptop from the windows

we have been coding like mad man's with reaby this last few weeks to get everyting ready and it is actually the first time then there is more then 5 players on the server since the start of the beta

I believe I have found the problem, it is an error in the dedimania widget that is re-sent everytime a player connects. You can hide the widget by clicking on the small arrow on the corner of the widget. It will only show(and update) when you click the tab button. It fixed it for me so I believe you should be okay.

Thanks again for the report. Hopefully I will fix tomorrow morning

great! Thank you mate

This problem is fixed it was dedimania widget. Normally on our system widgets are updated by the controller only at the beginning of a Match or at the end. The rest of the update is done through in game maniascript.
This means they are updated nearly live even on very busy servers. Due to a mistake the Dedimania widget was been updated by the controller and the script that makes it work was as well restarted every time. That meant micro shuttering.

It is now fixed, the script is restarted only for the new players and not the old players.

thanks for the report
