    Have you tried with a new map? It could be the area they are trying to spawn in has an issue. The other possibility is that the server isn't on the same Rust branch that the clients are.
     
  3. Gamma is your server on windows or linux?
     
  4. windows

    i find also that when an admin tp's to someone he sometimes gets stuck in the receiving data screen and a way to fix it is to tp him to me. Wierd. I dont know if any other servers are having trouble with this issue, it sucks cause my players that dont have me added cant login to tell me that they are stuck. i only know of this because of some online friends that join and have that error.
     
  5. Kill the sleepers who are having it. Only solution for me when players happen to get it.
     
  6. But I dont know who has it since they cant tell me since they cant login.
     
  7. Everyone Near the Center of the map. 0,0,0 is deadPoint. and the longer the map exists, the bigger is this Dead|LagZone. ...... didnt found any solution yet
     
  8. True. Let people know your teamspeak and/or get a Rust account only for managing the server. I do that and can accept every player that sends a request.

    Edit:
    Happens wherever on the map for me aswell. I have no idea why it does... Some players have reported they are stuck for a while, then get disconnected & when connecting back once again it usually starts working. -But only if they wait the whole time until the server disconnects them.

  9. I have players that log out in the top of the map, the icy north area and they also get the same problem though.
     
  10. How long does that take?
     
  11. 4-10 minutes.
     
  12. And then it ends up working?
     
  13. i have been stuck couple times near 0 0 0(as an admin) didn't help even i waited and reconnected several times (kicked out as unresponsive or timed out) then i realize that i have console even if iam stuck, so teleport yourself somewhere else when stuck and recon immediately. works every time with me. You can do that same with players, but need to have good coords to TP player so don't get killed. When you are on Receiving Data you are signed in to server already, so teleport works.

    Just want you to know what has helped me :) (hint. you can use console in Livemap or RCON)
     
  14. Yeah but i don't have console access during receiving data. And it's not a bad placement problem in my case, it will happen even with a blank server save as long as said server is on linux.

    I've resorted to asking help from facepunch, assuming they even care.
