Hello !

I noticed that SK goes totally crazy if I add 10 seconds to my system clock while playing.
(Mobs are flying, teleporting everywhere, totally unplayable...)
I'm running an automatic clock time synchronization system ; and it causes me troubles...

Someone could explain me this behaviour ?
Should all time sync systems be turned off ? (I think most computers periodically synchronize clock time...)

Thanks.

I'm not sure, but this may be because of how the game syncs. It might look at your clock to do this, there for, it de-syncs when your clock changes time, creating weird effects(assuming the game isn't programed for this change). That's my guess. The best fix would probably turn the time sync off while you play the game.

This is likely to be true, but only when, say, the month changes. (i.e. between 12:59, April 30 and 1:00 May 1)
