Incredible packet loss and desyncing

[JRamirez]

Up to a few days ago I started having a lot of packets losses and I was getting desynced more than usual.. Fast forward two days and I'm losing packets 9/10 of the time and I'm desynced every 5 minutes. It happens a lot during peak times but less when players are few. I'll post my rcrp.testresults.txt below under spoilers and you'll notice that I'm losing around 25 percent of the tested packets while my connection is totally fine with a ping of 9-20 ms and no packets lost when connecting with google. I live in Italy if that may help.

I think the issue is down to the server's hosting company. This happens to a number of players that I know because I've asked the same thing before and someone said they desync on RCRP more than any other server so I guess it's the host or maybe the maps, not sure. You could try and solve this by setting your object limit lower and removing mods etc.

no our host is fine and our server load is also fine, actually. this usually boils down to individual cases of bad connection to the server which could exist for a number of different reasons.

Oh, I'm mistaken then. But I and a lot of other people can all agree that we desync a lot more on RCRP than other servers. I've noticed it.

My object limit is 350 and the only mod I have is ImVehFT. RCRP is the only server where I desync a lot while in other samp servers my connection's totally stable. If its not server side I dont know what it is.

Do you mind troubleshooting me with those reasons?

I must admit that I too, desync abnormally more on RCRP.

Alright now I am 99 percent sure. During the morning and early afternoon where to players are below 100 I experience no desyncing AT ALL, my connection's totally normal and packet loss is at a stable 0.0 percent. Now I've went and logged in when the server is at over 120 players and I desync almost immediately and the packet loss is so high its unplayable. Those that have very fast connections have no problem but I have a 1.7 mb/s download connection and apparently its not enough to prevent packet loss. Several other players experience the same problem while others dont.
