Lag problem

beast · **Lag problem -** 13-01-2013

I'm using vV3B21j version of podbot. There is a huge problem with lag. Our server is based on humans (real players) vs monsters (bots) survival gameplay. There are 16 bots constantly playing with jasonmode ON. The maps are kinda small. The biggest being aim_taliban and the smallest aim_headshot. Also, I added lots of waypoints in these small maps, because I wanted the bots to be able to reach the players as much as possible. Most of the lags start, when there are 16 bots and >8 players. Also the pings rise heavily at round start. The server with 16 bots and ~10 players use about 2GHZ CPU. The server FPS is very unstable, it goes as low as 16. Sys_ticrate is set to 100. The plugins are optimized to ignore bots as much as possible. So I'm guessing the main problem is small maps and lots of waypoints?

Podbot.cfg (I recently modified it to use as less cpu as possible, imo. But there wasn't much of a difference, maybe like 10%):

Code:

# This is the Pod-Bot Config File (for HL Counter-Strike)
#
# Any line begining with '#' in the first column is a comment line
#
# Make sure no Line exceeds 80 Characters !!!
#
# The following commands are supported in the podbot.cfg file:
#
# All arguments in square Brackets are optional if you don't
# specify them a random value will be chosen
#
# pb add [skill [personality [team [model [name]]]]] - Adds a Bot using 
#      a Skill from 0-100, personality is 1 Normal, 2 Aggresive, 3 Deffensive
#      Team is 1 for Terrorists, 2 for Counter Terrorists and 5 to       
#      use auto-assign, Model (class-skin) it's depanding on the team 
#      (same as seen in the class menu for selecting the skin for the 
#      human players), Name is of course the name for this Bot.
#      If you don't specify the arguments, a random skill will be
#      chosen (between pb_minbotskil and pb_maxbotskill) and the Bot will be
#      auto-assigned with a random Skin and a Name he chooses randomly from 
#      "Botnames.txt". You can edit this File to add some names you like 
#      better.
#      ! NOTICE: Don't delete BotChat.txt ! It will be used !
#
# pb fillserver [skill [personality [team [model]]]] - Adds automatically
# the bots to the server until reaching by podbots + human_players 
# (or other bots):
# a) the pb_maxbots value if it is specified (different than 0)
# b) mp_maxplayers if pb_maxbots is not specyfied (or is equal to 0)

# This sets the Waypoint Folder (in the POD-Bot Directory)
# for loading/saving waypoints. Don't use a trailing backslash or spaces.
# This doesn't work for the first game you create (it has to start from
# wptdefault). But when creating for the second time (or loading with newmap)
# this directory will be used. Default is wptdefault.
pb_wptfolder wptdefault

# Set the value to 1 to turn on welcome messages at start the game. 
# Default is 0.
pb_welcomemsgs 0

# Use this to turn on/off the Speech Synthesis <1|0>. Default is 0.
pb_usespeech 0

# These 2 setings below support a minimum and maximum number 
# of bots running on a server. They are ONLY LIMITS for the function 
# pb fillserver and pb removebots. The actual amount of bots might be 
# between those limits (it rely for example on how many times pb add 
# command has been used).
# Bots may be added to the server until the total number of players 
# (bots and humans) reaches the pb_maxbots value.  Each time a new player
# joins the server, a bot will be kicked from the server unless there are 
# only pb_minbots number of bots currently on the server. After players 
# disconnect from the server, bots will be automatically added back to 
# the server until the total number of players (humans and bots) reaches 
# pb_maxbots again. pb_maxbots should be AT LEAST one less than 
# the maxplayers value (otherwise no one will be able to join the server).
# You can stop this function (auto add/kick bots for entering/leaving 
# humans)) by writing pb_maxbots = 0.
# Ths function is also not working in the case if pb_bot_quota_match 
# is grater than 0 (in that case amount of bots follow the number
# humans * pb_bot_quota_match - of course in the min/maxbots limit).
# Default value for pb_bot_quota_match is 0.
# Default values for pb_minbots and pb_maxbots are 0 and 16.
pb_minbots 16
pb_maxbots 16
pb_bot_quota_match 0

# Changing the setting below forces bots joining to certain team.
# Useful if You want to have always bots in one team against humans.
# Argument values: "ANY", "T", "CT". Default is "ANY".

# Changing the setting below forces bots using the specified skin - the same
# for all bots from one team - regardless of pb add or pb fillserver 
# parameters.

So basically, the server uses about 80-100% of the first CPU, but there is like 3GHZ free. The ram usage is about 4% only. Is there anything more I can do to lower the CPU usage?

KWo · **Re: Lag problem -** 14-01-2013

I don't remember what is the default value of sys_ticrate, but fps_max shoudn't be set to higher value than 100. Everyting more than that may cause lags.

beast · **Re: Lag problem -** 14-01-2013

I read your post somewhere, you said sys_ticrate must not be higher than 100, when using podbots. And isn't fps_max a client cvar...? Whatever, both are not higher than 100. Do you have any more ideas?

p.s. I don't quite understand why the server ticrate is dropping so much, when there is like 3GHZ of CPU free? I wouldn't mind the huge usage if the ticrate was stable...

KWo · **Re: Lag problem -** 15-01-2013

What is Your max waypoint number on aim_taliban (I mean how many waypoints did You put for that map)? What else is on Your server (any antivirus SW)? What is working else under metamod (write in the server console "meta list" without quotes, hit the "enter" key and copy and paste the output here)? If You are using AMX MOD X, write also here the list of plugins ("amxx plugins" command).

beast · **Re: Lag problem -** 16-01-2013

There are 530 waypoints total, in aim_taliban.

The server is running on Debian 6.0.4 OS. So no antivirus is running obviously. Also a CSDM server is running on the same machine. But the lag is not because of it. If I turn OFF the CSDM server, absolutely nothing changes. As I said, there are lots of free resources.

Quite many plugins under AMX MOD X... If there are still free resources, this test should change nothing, but... Can You try to disable AMX MOD X at all (just for test for couple of minutes) for that instance of the CS server to see if there is any difference in lags or no?
