Adam --- after 30 sept the messages became time out messages.

Oh well ,.... todays omen spells bad Decided to see how the game was performing.... Logged in form lobby ...ummm well tried to 20 minutes in a queue behind 1 other player ahead of me ...waited and waited ...couldnt go forward....couldnt get back .. So only action possible ... task manager .. close client . No log available as i couldn't get in. Looks like its best to wait (?) for 1.5 and see if its more than just words. My hope is fading fast.

according to lobby 5 on line in game but i was unable to connect ... tried again at 9:05... lobby count went to 0 obviously they had been kicked as well. After watching the hypnotic hamster wheel s-l-o-w-l-y rotate got in at 9:15 my time nearly all the work i had done earlier had been lost. Inventory duplicated. constant lag spikes as others tried to get back in. Will try to get to back to where i was ...hoping for not another 'connection time out" wish me luck ..i will obviously need it.

Another day ...... stared log in 8:30 my time ... got into game at 8:35 ... managed to rebuild 50% of what was lost yesterday .... 8:55 connection time out Tried to rejoin at 9:00 so far 4 "unable to connect' messages" Wonder how much will be lost this time when/if i can rejoin? output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

get back in at 4:25 .. double inventory and from the previous 1 hour in game ...lost 30 mins work wouldn't that rot your socks? cannot take any more today ..off to look at yt vids of funny cats and car crashes

managed to log back in at 3:15 .. lost 10 mins work ... inventory doubled up again... tossed out 4:15 with connection time out message output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

and 1 hour later... 2:40 my time..... connection time out ... and each time we lose about 5 mins work ( sometimes a lot more! ) and our inventory goes bonkers ..everything duplicate output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

well well well ..( not 3 holes in the ground) ..logged in and started to rebuild what was lost yesterday.. and was chatting happily about how i now caught up ... was told not to speak to soon Sure enough 5 mins later ... kicked out because of a time out ... everyone else landed on the Butts too for your amusement ... If i have lost all my rebuild i will craft a prop pack ...fly over to your place and toss bananas at you! output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

got back i to game 15:20 everyone had been kicked out. found all my work for the last hour ..an intricate spiral staircase ... gone! Half inventory was double and half of the items gone. Had enough for the day.. getting close to having had enough of the game too tired hungry and angry to send logs

Took a break while thunderstorms were circling... logged in at 16:15 all went well despite 5 second game freezes every 20 to 30 secs ...got used to it .. 15:15 got tossed out ..along with everyone else ... "connection time out thingamy". When returning ... inventory items doubled .. More logs to frame on your wall output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaaaack Connection time out message kicked us all out apparently ... was having the " disappearing items when placed" glitch ... a quick rejoin would result in the item appearing where it was placed... happened for the third time and was rejoining ... got to the ocean building message then all went kaboom and the time out message taunted me ... so here's something more for you .. a pre yuletide set of logs ! output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

4:20 my time game froze ,,,,, got back in 4:25 and all seemed ok now 4:45 and got kicked out ... connection time out removed me from the game ... did the same to other players on line at the same time. Lobby still showed them as being on line in game! logs for you to admire and cherish. output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

Re-entered game after 5 minute log in process form lobby ... there was a 5 minute approx windback ... inventory a mess ..all items tripled.

Logged in from lobby scree at 9:55 am my time got in at 10:02 ...2 others on line. Game crashed to pale blue screen at 10:30 am waited 8 minutes at wheelie screen .. and then got a time out message... captured logs and tried to get back ... looks like everyone was dumped out. game seemed to be working ok when this happened ... output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

for the record >. Red Eagles P1 infinite explore 10 island game has been operating for a month now ... .. and still has a lot of life in it ... despite the griefers and kid-iots

@Adam Snellgrove..... believe the inability to log in was because of server maintenance shut down as there were 3 -4 players on line according to the lobby but 0 when i finally got in ... it was confirmed later by another player there had just been a shutdown Have not been on much the last 3 days due to RL and body clock and routines scrambled by daylight saving, but with current rainy weather setting in today will have no incentive to be drawn outside to do gardening and enjoy sunshine.. but give ylands a bit of a workout

Another day another log file. Tried 5 times to enter P1 game ... same message unable to connect.. Logs etc as usual output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

Adam yes server maintenance..... also refer SandyT's post..

took 12 minutes form lobby screen until game loaded .... said there was 0 on line ...waited in a queue while 2 were supposedly ahead...got in...i was only one? yay...on hour without interruption except for lag spikes .... decided to go for lunch ... but as has happened several times before ..game hangs at log out process... so for a difference, sending in logs for that ;0 output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

Another day ummmm well took 10 minutes to connect and another 10 minutes loading in ..was advised there had been a server shutdown for maintenance just before i arrived... time my zone... 9:40 am time now ....10:20 am guess what ? logs attached output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

Tried a re-join at 14:25 my time ..usual 5 mins wait to get in...watching the wheel churn slowly ... bingo! got in ( note theres been a max of 4 on line at any one time) Spent 5 mins sorting out the inventory mess that occurs after these server outages. Well ..as you can guess ... its the new norm! another server shut down for maintenance at 15:05 my time... maintenance? theres no improvement afterwards.. screen shot says it all . I had enough for the day and like the other 2 players on line ...we calling it quits for today as its too frustrating. output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

14:15 tried to rejoin game .... see screenshot ' unspecified error" output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

Tried to rejoin gam at 14:06 my time .... At 14:10 unable to establish connection. For the record ... 3 weeks ago i upgraded my internet speed to wireless wifi broadband with a consistent 90Mbps+ download speed ...prior to that it was only 15 Mbps so you cannot blame my internet connection.. More logs for you. output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

Logged in after lunch at 12:30 ... usual 7 mins slow log in time watching the wheel of misfortune 13:45 ... yup white screen wit the wheelie .. that froze.... stared at it for 5 minutes of excitement ... then got the non responding message . after another 3 minutes i got out ... and heres some more logs as a gift for you. Now you know why players are not staying with this game .. output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

11:15 yup on cue ... game froze...screen went white and into hamster wheel mode .. wheel turned in fits and starts and burps .and eventually stopped. Locked up for 15 minutes! At 11:30 i opened task manager to get out of the game ..it said Ylands was not running. Opened steam window ..it said Ylands was ..... and the stop button was un-responsive ...i still had the ylands hamster wheel screen windowed .. the wheel was dead. the hamster had gone missing. It was totally unresponsive. Monty pythons dead parrot was more responsive. Another 5 minutes wait ..... staring at a very interesting frozen hamster wheel ... i finally pulled the plug and restarted my computer. Here are the logs you want them? you are sure gonna get them. and to think i paid money to play this game ...( sigh) Hopefully if something happens i might change my negative reviews into a positive one ... but until then .... ? Time for lunch. will come back for more punishment a little later. output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt
