My HUD has been bugging out like crazy lately. My player portrait will become a BIG circle of my personal color, along with the mini map. How do I fix this?

Is there a reason for all of this? Are the servers going on an overload that OOO wasn't expecting? This could be a possible necro, but the problem has been persisting for days now.

I want to play Spiral Knights, but I can't because of connection lag. The game is called Spiral Knights, but it should be renamed Spiral Ice because I feel like I'm running around on ice with all this rubberbanding. Any way to fix this?

I can't even play, i am forced to stay in haven.

Currently I use a mac at version OS X 10.9.3 with java SE 8 newest version.

I'm trying to log in with my steam account or bind an account to steam, but 1. I can't convert my account to steam and 2. I don't get the use steam account checkbox.

So, from the steam faq:http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Steam_FAQ
"Note: If you are using a Mac and do not get the "Use Steam Account" checkbox, you can try the workaround described in this post." "http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/14480"

So I have two separate characters on Spiral knights and they are both on the same Steam account, but when I add friends on my second character they only get added to my first character so I can't add friends on my new one. They just get transferred to my old one, can someone please help me fix this?

When I'm farming for orbs, very very frequently the game will run the running sprite, but I don't actually move. This has actually affected me in my missions. There is this one depth where you have to go in a trap train to get to this button, then go in the middle (which has just opened up), where there is a party button. I go in the middle and it pushes me to the other side. I took so much damage, I went from 100% to like 16%. I'd like to have this problem fixed soon. Thank you for your time.

Since the last update or I guess patch, I have been having a lot of issues with rubberbanding and lag. Sometimes when I try to walk forward it almost looks like there is a force pushing against me to move me back and I start moving almost in slow motion only to shoot forward a few seconds later after I've stopped trying to move. I glitch around a lot too, sometimes moving through solid blocks and jumping back to where I had been 5 seconds earlier, and its getting me killed a lot. I don't think it is on my end, but I can't be too sure. Any help or explanations would be appreciated.

During gameplay, the game client closes randomly, usually with me coming back and seeing that my health and emergency rev are both gone, or nearly gone. This is getting on my nerves. I updated java, my NVIDIA Graphics driver, and still it happens. I would love to have this fixed, because this game is nearly unplayable in its current state for me.

Whenever i try to play the game it states that I need to install java runtime environment which I have installed. help?
