Thanks :)<br>

"I thought I should give an update on what we know about this bug. <br>
<br>
We have been working hard with this here and have found several bugs in <br>
the networking code that could explain things. Some of the fixes were <br>
included in the demo, which is a later build than the one we sent out to <br>
production (2446.12 > 2442). This explains why people haven't seen the <br>
issue as much there. <b><span style='font-weight:bold'>Other fixes was done
after 2446, and will be <br>
included in the patch we will release "soon"</span></b>. <br>
<br>
It wasn't really an issue with the speed of the internet-connection or <br>
the speed of the machine running the server. It was rather how the <br>
server prioritized which objects it should send updates about to which <br>
clients. If the client doesn't receive object-updates it will try to <br>
update their position based on the latest information it has (basic <br>
interpolation). This makes objects behave weird when updates are not <br>
frequent enough. <br>
<br>
Hopefully we have fixed all issues concerning this. If not we should at <br>
least have made things a lot better. I guess we'll see the truth of it <br>
when we release the patch :) <br>
