Re: memory usage

Sounds fair for a BF server, is it? I've only been running FS servers so far.

Re: memory usage

FOR THOSE SUFFERING EXCESSIVE MEMORY USAGE:

Is there an AI folder in the FirstStrike directory? If so, try removing it and restart the server (I dont *think* this will cause an issue on servers, but I have little experience with this). Then see what the memory usage is.

Re: memory usage

Before removing that folder, I was around 800+MB of RAM in use.  I've just removed it and restarted it and the memory usage is around 87MB.  I'll keep an eye on it to see if it blows out at all, but this is a great improvement.

I will give it a try thanks.


I tried but Escape From Hoth would crash every time someone tried to spawn.

Probably because no AI for the StarDestroyer guns.

I put the AI folder back via ftp and the server did not crash on Escape From Hoth.

Wouldn't the AI also be needed for the droids?

Any other suggestions?

I am open for any ideas to keep our server from crashing.

Re: memory usage

Well its pretty much been confirmed its the AI. This will be solved in the hotfix (no deletion).
