CTHL + double login

[dotsie]

OK the massive increase in CTHL is barely tolerable but wtf is up with this having to login twice afterwards. 1st time you see side locked then have to login all over again to access a side. Its been here months now. Do you hate us or something? A CTD that last 5 or more mins if spawn delay is on.

This has been the case for as long as I can remember. Recently it has been that the first load after a CTHL shows all sides locked; before that it generated a 2nd CTHL.

No idea if there is a fix, but you can speed it up slightly. On the first load after a CTHL bring up Task Manager and end the application just after the red "loading bar" starts moving. Your second load will then be OK.

Or just press alt f4 after you connect to chat host.

When you CTD, the server doesn't notice you are gone until there a timeout happens, so it thinks you are still logged in for a minute or two. So you can't log in again until all the servers agree you are not still logged in.

It's like when you are talking to someone on a cellphone and while you are going on and on about something, the line drops. Then you sit there and wonder why the other person isn't saying anything until you realize the line dropped.

Ollie thinks he know the general problem but fixing it is complex.
