Hello guys
Hey i was doing' a vana run but while i was en route to 4th elevator i lagged. My internet connection was okay, i was logged in. But for some reason every thing around just became statue. The players started moving in 1 direction. All enemies were standing still. I shot at least 1000 shots at enemies with my kilowatt but nothing happened. Then I logged out and logged in, after that it was working normal, but had to start from ready room again.
Please do help me with this.
thanks

What you experienced was packet loss.
For an extended period of time, your Spiral Knights client program received no data from the server. If the duration is short, the client program will attempt to extrapolate things based on previous states (and resynchronize with server later), but for long duration your client can no longer guess/estimate how things are going on server side. So you can move your own knight (since that is client side), but everything controlled from server side will stop responding.
This is likely a network problem anywhere between you and SK servers. OOO won't be able to help you with this, it's out of their control.
