I get haven errors about 1 out of 100 times I enter a house. It doesn't affect my network connection.
Well what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands takin' hold of me
Well I am death, none can excel

I would really love some help on this. It makes anything built outside a real game of Russian Roulette with me, prob is of late there have been 6 bullets in the barrel. I have lost in total.

2 HQ Tables,
4 HQ Barrels,
5 Cupboards,
1 Wooden Plow,
1 HQ Winepress,
3 Straw Baskets full of DEX Food,
5 Straw Baskets of Dead Chickens,
And some other things.
This has been under the time of a few days, lag to a forced log out, has become so annoying that it inhibits my ability to play...

Can't move anywhere without being lagged out, can't enter houses without lagging out, can CARRY things in or out of houses without lagging out (have discovered that it is only when you go into a house that you risk losing what you are carrying) and many other mundane jobs. Heck I was eating Muls and I lagged out...

I check the Java website and it says I have the most uptodate Java, Java EE 5 SDK, (Version 6 Update 17). So what is wrong. Am I just unlucky cause Aussie Broadband sucks or is it something else. I can play many other games fine, heck I am able to play Dragon Age Origins of Full Detail and shit without any problems...

I've just added some debugging code to the network system. Please trigger the behavior again, so that I can see if it catches anything.

Righty'O then...
Gonna carry an empty basket in and out of me cabin for a bit then...

Also to note, I can't look at any website that is refreshing while loading cabin transition...


EDIT 1: Welp, first attempt going in Didn't do anything, loaded almost instantly for a change, but coming out was a different story. Started a long load, then suddenly the screen flashed up with my character moving westward without clicking, then dropped back to Load screen for a few seconds before Forced out...
Logging back in to try again...

EDIT 2: Add the first Empty Basket to the List of things lost, this time it was outside so I have no idea why it was lost to begin with.

Tried to enter the building while loading this page, Forced out...

EDIT 3: Curious, I had thought that items that had a collision box were deleted if you were forced out when entering a building, but the second basket was found just inside the doorway, Heartling Sprite was 'inside' the basket sprite unable to move, but was able to pick up the basket. Attempting to exit again...

EDIT 4: Moved in and out 5 times, on the 5th in, only after the 'Chack' of the door and the start of the music was I forced out. Next time I will time how long it takes...

EDIT 5: Was unable to log in at last position and was forced to use Hearthfire, after the usual lag of loggin in, I entered the Cabin to find the Basket once again at the door and the transition was instant. On picking up and turning to the door, it took a count of 17 breathes of Moonwalking (walking on the spot) before it loaded the Load Screen, continuing the count to 102 before being Forced out...

EDIT 6: To log in it took a count of 17 after clicking 'Log in at HF' to load the load screen, continuing the count to 48 before game loaded, forgot to count how long till it was actually playable. Basket was dropped at Door So will continue once again...

EDIT 7: Moved to enter building, took a count of 18 before SFX of Door and music starting and continued to 78 before being forced out...

Here I will be stopping, I hope I have done something useful at the least...

Well, bummer. I was hoping the problem might be that the Path MTU to your point is abnormally small for whatever reason and that at some point, the server attempts to send a packet larger than that. That doesn't seem to be the problem, however. (In fact, it catches no error whatsoever on my side.) The problem remains a mystery for now.

As for flood ping testing, it seems that the Windows version of ping doesn't have that function, but there seem to be third party programs that do the same thing. I cannot really say how or if it works, of course, but if you'd like to try it and see if you get any useful results, please do. You may want to try flood pinging your ISP gateway (you can see its IP address using the "route print" command in Windows) and/or our server, "sh.seatribe.se".

I'm just curious but what kind of specs does your computer have?

I don't have any issue like this on my desktop, but my laptop is strictly for note taking and preliminary homework stuff. That being said it's a low-end system. 1GB of RAM 256 of which is shared with the intel onboard graphics, 1.8GhZ Single core Celeron. I can't play H&H on the laptop because I have similar issues(Moonwalking, long loading times, disappearing furniture and containers).

Next time I'm on campus I'll load H&H up and mess around to see if my laptop replicates his issues. But first, mind listing your PC specs? If you don't know just list the Manufacturer and the computer model and I'll post em for you.. Kthx.

I've had this forced log-out happen to me too a few times. Haven't lost anything due to it, since I never carried anything at the time.
The 4 - 5 times it happened to me, though, it happened when I entered and exited a buiding in rapid succesion (as in: enter - 'Doh, I needed to be in the other cabin' - exit)
