I can also confirm that this type of chisel grabs and holds you as you run into it at least in this area. It is my area and it was done prior to chisel rework and was not redone.

Is anybody else not able to play right now because of insane lag?

I had another dev team member check this out on my behalf (as I don’t have any music on my machine) and the issue didn’t crop up. Does it also occur if you played music before loading the game?
Did you mean to say that the chiselled block grabs and holds you, or is there actually an issue with the chisel itself?
Is it still happening?

@vdragon The block or corner is the issue, not the chisel. Sorry for the confusion. I saw the post and noticed it was my area so I went to test. If I run into that corner block and try to back up, I am stuck and can’t go back for 2 or so seconds. I didn’t try all 4 corners.
Just to restate the block was made into a corner with the previous chisel set not new.

Yes Munteen has been very much laggy the last few days. @Selection verified the same experience.

My internet speed is at 109 MB download and 10 upload so I don’t think it’s my chunk settings. I’ve never had issues before on my end. this just recently started happening.

Can you share a screen shot of the Debugging Latency Histogram?
This will show the distribution of latency for ping messages to the current world server.
You could also run a Ping command in a Terminal window alongside the game. This would help determine if the issues is between you and the game server, or just your connection in general.
ping -t 8.8.8.8
would hit one of the Google DNS servers.
Additional:
For example, the following capture shows a great connection:
- 95% of all ping packets are in the range (50ms to 100ms) with 5% in the range (100ms to 150ms)
- No packets are greater than 150ms.
- Latency is also quite constant.
- Game should be smooth with zero rubber banding.
The following capture shows a connection that is more variable and had a few little stalls:
- 99% of packets are in the range (50ms to 200ms) - good connection.
- 0.6% of packets are in the range (200ms to 500ms) - still ok and playable.
- 0.1% of packages (in purple) are greater than 500ms - these would have caused some lag.
Sharing this data will help us understand how your connection is performing.

Is that to say that your colleague was able to a control the music player while boundless has focus? The occurs for me whether or not I have started the music before hand. I am playing windowed mode and I have the same behaviour on my machine and my wife’s. I also saw another player mention the same thing in another post but I’ll have to find it. The only other relevant thing I can think of is that I play in windowed mode.
I’m happy to made a video of the behaviour and post it privately on YouTube if it helps. Would that be useful?
@Havok40k or @james, were your “likes” indications that you have seen the same issue?
Also, the music in boundless is awesome. It’s just that sometimes I want to play to my own beat.

There is a fix in the next next release (not Testing 179) to help with media buttons:
- Don’t intercept app command keys to try and fix media keys not working with apps like Spotify.
I sometimes Heart reported issues just to say “thank you” for reporting it.

not sure how much this helps but… this is what was going on Sep 28 2017
5pm AU crazy all over the place lag
10pm AU back to normal…
Munteen does this all the time.
Bare in mind Munteen is an EU world. I lag like crazy out on Andoowem (from the UK) 
Hi, i made an alt character to test some stuff and i have a bug with the objectives:
i have finished them but i cant complete them, any ideas?
Yeah i know its an EU server its just been doing crazy stuff this last week or so…
200ping is the norm for me, but that 400 ping crazy stuff… know idea whats going on there…

I don’t know if this is just a weird little isolated incident but, I was hunting in Nasharil when I hit a hopper. To prevent it from rolling down the hill I hooked it while it was alive and as soon as it does this occurred. A bean across as war as k would see.
Just happend to me with a stack of compressed coal. Ahrg that hurts. 
And the fuel slot was even empty! (But both ingredient slots were occupied.)
I have noticed since the new patch a lot more lag when going through portals especially connecting to the EU zone. My tracert is still showing about 150-200ms which was like before but now I get huge lag in the zone. Otherwise have talked about having lag and issues when going through portals. Here are two screen shots during our hunt to show the type of spikes. Again this is new since the patch…

I’ve been hitting a strange lag (while loading portals and also when away from them).
The “Missing Portal Connection” red text shows upon waiting for most portals to load including the sanctums.
Otherwise in world, I get the “Connection to Server is Unstable” text.
I’ve been on Munteen this week (I’m located in HK). 3-4 days ago, everything was pretty smooth.
Pinging 8.8.8.8 gives me:
bytes=32 time 15ms TTL=47.
Below are my graphs (I hope they’re the right ones):
capped just now:
capped approximately 6 hours ago:
Without turning off the ‘return to sanctum on lag’ popup option, the pop up happens ever 3-5 seconds (I have since turned it off).
If any more info is needed, I’d be glad to share. Thanks guys!
