Map information delay

[=X51=VC_]

For servers that have your plane position turned on, mine never seems to be up to date. When the map shows number of enemy planes near a friendly spawn point, mine is also behind, sometimes by several minutes. I know this from flying with squadmates, most of who call changes to "planes spotted at X airfield" and I see nothing, or "airfield clear" and I still see the symbol with number of enemy planes for some time afterwards. They say it's because I fly in VR but that makes no sense to me.

 

My internet is fast, I have no lag or any connection problems otherwise. What could be causing this issue?

I only noticed this when server was overloded, i would have few seconds dely on my position and on like you say icons of enemy airplanes on my spawn base.

 

When you have this check if your cockpit clock shows same time and seconds as on your tm8s, and if your able to press finish flight exctly when you landed or you have to wait for airplane gps icon to get to same place, that was also happening when i noticed that problem.

 

But for me problem stoped when devs fixed bullet delay bug 1,5 years ago, didnt have it since then, basicly server would get overwhelemd and users with lower conections speeds or high pings would expiriance this delay in data from server.

To me it happens all the time ? whatever server population, and I don't have delay to de-spawn, or high ping, or any other kind of lag (e.g. no "missing position info" messages). I'll check the clock next time, that's a good idea.

Time differance on in cockpt clock should tell you if you are reciving delayed info from server host for any reason (server overloded, high ping bad conection VPN use and so on...). If you have same time like others but see delayed icons then problem is differant from what i and others had before.
