just another 20 second restart bug to be fixed

[Crescent Q]

About 13:13am which would be 10:13am where you guys are located server time it just happened abouts, the Game says the server will be restarted in 20 seconds and instead had restarted in like 5 seconds abouts...this has happened before and I think either arachnia or gandalf had helped me find it through log reports when it restarts abouts, anyhow hope this helps...it just needs a little tweaking in order to get a full 20 second heads up, that it's restarting is all.

I looked through several log files and the system message is absolutely correct. server restarts exactly 20 seconds after the message is sent, but kicking players starts 15-16 seconds after system message
not 5.
but I guess players expect full 20 seconds to act judging the contents of the message

[Crescent Q]

This also happened in late April and early May, Gandalf was able to find it and fixed it too, to actually restart and kick at 20 seconds and not 5..it's ok Kollex, it's more of a delay issue if ye feel system log is in same tandem..but really it's not in sync with real time showing on either pc or android with message..to really fix this an Actual Timer Displayed from 20 to 0 to restart is more preferrably and you might have a better understanding of this delay or lag from server to players devices using the internet, based off actual ping to deliver...but it has been 5 seconds about after message appears and Gandalf was able to do a special procedure to fix it last time...he mentioned in my pm.

Anyhow..no joke man, I'm not only one who notices this kind of stuff, but I'm making sure it's reported again, for the Foundation and Integrity of the Game Setup to help out as Player's Bug Review and in hopes you guys too will take this seriously to help Stabilize this Observation for the best of all who enjoy FT.
It's not in sync...synchronization, in early April and in past, it always gave you 20 seconds abouts, Gandalf fixed last time early May.

Hope that helps, take care man.

I was close to Crescent today when System Restart Message was displayed.
I noticed he reacted a whole ten seconds later than me, moving away from spawn area so to save pets at following login. Knowing how attentive he is, I believe that to be due to SRM being displayed on his screen later than on mine.

Perhaps setting the warning to alert players sooner would be sufficient to end this problem. Say... 2 minutes, then again at 1 minute.

Perfect idea. Time enough to move away, kill that last monster or whatever.

[Crescent Q]

Those are some decent Ideas about giving enough time to finish up what you were doing or a battle or to move onto a safer area before system restarts...

But Anyhow, I wanted to state that someone had fixed the 20 seconds restart...I've actually gotten 18 or a full 20 seconds but definitely way more than 5...so whoever fixed it, Kudo's to you bud, cuz it's resolved as far as I'm concerned. Just wanted to recap on this bug that I posted to say it's been solved and satisfied...thanks.

I still believe it's lag in the chat system. If you are lagging bad it can take 5-10 seconds for what you typed to appear in the chat bar. Why would it be any different to be able to read what another player/system message sent out?

[Crescent Q]

Last time, Gandalf was able to find a 20 second bug like this with my help, due to playstore issue. Which is no lag on my part cuz I am not using wifi, nor satellite lol and use the top of the line hardwired broadband. Others have experienced this as well, on BlueStacks and their handheld devices, and I am making sure it just gets addressed is all, like last time, but in Bug Topic Reports and not PMing

Gandalf, told me in a previous investigation like this, that there was a downgraded server due to the google playstore issue. That, the old crontab job is re-activated and the newer java command is not working anymore. He said that he will fix this asap. He also said he will check, if he can do a crontab job with another message to have a warning at least. Otherwise... it is always 10:13 am FT time.

After his due diligence through his investigations, and did exactly what he said he was going to do, it was fixed that very next day, towards the next restart and I pmed him thanking him about it and was glad that I could help out
Gandalf, is really good at this kind of stuff and checks things thorougly too, while being precise.

This could be from the new items update or whatever, I wouldn't know, the specifics, but anyhow, like I said it is Fixed.
And I am glad I was able to catch it again and report it as soon as it was experienced, in hopes I could get rewarded this time around, for putting this Bug, on Bug reports instead of pming Gandalf all the time lol.

Thanks joe, for your input so I could make things clear on here bud.

Sincerely,
