Oh, my god no! Lol!

I know that p99 has some issues by reading their forums. I'm wanting to get more info to see if it's in our code..but they have enough custom
code to make it really difficult...
The dbg.txt message seems to go back to at least 2010 on their forums.
I think, ultimately, it boils down to packet loss..but the problem is where exactly...
As far as the router and udp, someone in irc mentioned they had to forward those anyways.
If you're bypassing the router with no luck, my only guess would be to make sure that any av/firewall software is set to allow those ports.
Even if it's disabled, some software can still block those ports, so you'll need to manually register or open ports for your game.
(They do have some posts/guides on their site about m-c cpu's as well.)
