Jump drive failure

[KellyR]

Don't know if this is the correct place to put this. Didn't know where else to put it.

I have a friend who reported to me after charging his jump drive it reported "Jump drive failure". He then heard "Shield Lost" and the drive was gone. He tried suiciding and upon respawn it was still gone. Is this normal behavior? And if so what would cause the failure of a jump drive?

it may happen if server is busy or...your friend get a fast and swift lag i guess.

sadly lag+physical movements causes problems as such.

and yes you need admins to help you here...

This actually makes some sense. It was on one of the alternative servers and the admin there sometimes goes 4 or 5 days between server restarts. Don't know why, I run a server myself and it's no big deal to have it auto-restart every 24 hours.

Thanks for the reply.

is it possible to get jump drives on single player?

is it possible to get jump drives on single player?

No. It's run entirely through FLHook, which single player doesn't have. You could host your own private server and run the FLHook plugin to make it work, but that's an awful lot of effort.
