    To prevent derailing that other topic further...

    I took whole evening yesterday with Wolf ScrollWolf Scroll trying troubleshoot the issue with the 'lag zone'. While we know where its coming from, a solution that doesn't change the map isn't there yet, because as usual the client is a ...

    What I did however, is change the lag spot to a new test location, to see if this indeed solves the problem for good.

    Demonstration:
    https://kimberly.s-ul.eu/4GgdDpiD

    What this means is that by using this test patch you now need to spawn Horntail by going off the rope.

    Furthermore, this test patch also has a new client. This client uses a different protection over our old client. Based on some people, they had issues with having more lag compared to an unprotected client. While I do not want go completely unprotected because it triggers anti-viruses more often and give other servers an easier time taking our client mods, I am attempting different protections to see if it improves the performance of the client.

    Feedback on this is appreciated as well!

    Lastly, thanks to Wolf ScrollWolf Scroll this client also fixes the issue where some items stay on-screen after a SMEGA. If you still notice any item staying on screen using this client let me know!

    Demonstration on that:
    https://kimberly.s-ul.eu/jH52NA31

    Download prototype patch:

    Do note that everyone going Horntail should get this patch, or else they will just lag like normally at the Horntail pre-heads.

    Tried the experimental client and I could call it a success, moving that zone to the rope prevents any annoyance that happened before. You now have lag if you are on the rope but that won't annoy anyone, except the seduce mules that don't have much action beside buffing sometimes.
    Good work.

    Would it make more sense to drop the 'lag zone' further down, so buff mules and seduce mules can stay on the top of the rope without lag as well?

    I'd say, if you could, put it as low as possible. No one ever steps on the bottom floor anyhow (except for corner cases like using rage when others are on atk buffs)

    Client itself running fine as well? As in, does it still bootup as fast, no additional lag, etc?

    So horntail will only spawn if we climb on the rope and jump off it?
