Master Server issue: Ping

[.:Ciel:.]

I saw this on the master server right now: http://imageshack.us/f/688/screenhunter01mar151818.jpg/
It dosen't look normal. What happned?

Those two servers are both using SRB2 Kart, which is the reason for the unusually high ping. Now, I'm not quite sure as to why the Master Server does that.

it looks likes they messed with the asktime variable in
SendAskInfoViaMS() function. That, in turn makes invalid time field PT_SERVERINFO packets back to the MS.

Somewhat related issue;
In SRB2kart, when using the "Ping" command (as the server) everyone's ping is "0ms." And sometimes a single person's will be like "6000766ms" or something in the ball park.

That bug was carried over from the public trunk version of SRB2, srb2kart didn't break it because it was already broken before Zarro touched the code.

 

[K.S.]

It's because Logan/Alam (likely Alam) removed the padding bytes in the packet structures, most certainly.
