    Default More than 2 player Multiplayer lag fix

    Hello! I recently got KeeperFX multiplayer to work flawlessly with one other person. Game runs **perfectly** fine on our W7 machines. (We had a 40 minute match 1v1 and a 1v1v1v1 (With 2 bots)) Though, after we add just one more person, the whole game shits the bed. It starts to lag incredibly bad if we just add one more person. Any reason for this? Any solutions to this?

    Thank you!

    (I didn't realize there was a KeeperFX sub forum)

    KeeperFX works really well 1 vs 1, in just a 2 player game.
    Haven't tried with 3 real players or more, but someone mentioned it was not good. But I can confirm that with 2 players, that's real players it seems to work good.

    If you add AI though then the multilayer usually crashes eventually.
    Not sure if they are going to fix this or not.

    But also at the moment another problem is you need a very low ping to play this online, as the current netcode is very slow if you have a high ping with another player.
    Usually below 130 ms, where 50ms or below is very playable usually.

    So it's still recommended to play someone very close to you, particularly in the same region or country, or on a LAN.
