Post Fix fighters
tl;dr: FCs can now spam 50 fighters at player and player's internet can't keep up so player desyncs and can't do anything. This has been an issue since vazi slaves, PPS ais that spew missiles and since aveksaka expansion was released.

Not only my FCs but also crap AIs/random players' FCs. This issue doesn't come from only fighters, it also comes from AIs which spew a lot projectiles, or just large numbers or AIs or even simplier - if there's too much of anything in galaxy then heavy desyncs happen

Post Re: Fix fighters
I moved recently, my internet is now crap so I can't even run 2 clients in a crowded area (PPS/aveksaka/whatever is always "crowded" with junk like lasers,projectiles,fighters,missiles), before that I'd always bring a shitload of FCs and high rof dps alts so others like for example curse couldn't be in the same gal as me while I had desyncs only in areas like aveksaka bosses, PPS swarms or dgs with kalthi commanders/cyborg machines which used to shit a ton of missiles.
Some unis ago (probably 2) I took a bunch of players with me into a pps dg "for the lols" to show them how a gunner can heavily lag the server, when I shot everyone desynced like shit while players outside the galaxy only experienced "some server lags".

This is quite a waste for me because I won't get a refund, but I resubbed 15 accounts then I remembered that ss can't be played without good internet which I don't have now. If only I wasn't a so dumb to rush b then I'd post this earlier and wouldn't resub until this is fixed.

I will agree that lots of projectiles makes client lag unbearable. There's a reason why when Gunners come to PVB, everyone blames them when the server dies.

That's because of DB targeting code, not projectiles.

I would like to think the line "excuse me but can I get a shitpost?" is fairly polite.

Woo and on top of that 9 kalthi commanders = 5*9 missiles every 2 seconds
Have fun with clients crashing and desyncing so much you won't be able to log in for several minutes
