What happened?

Hi,

To give you some context:

Almost an year ago, I had a Nitrado Dayz console server PS4 running version 1.28. I did not have major lag problems, even with 15 people on my server. Just occasional lag which was probably caused by misconfigurations from my part.


Present day, I once again rented a Nitrado dayz console server PS4 running version 1.29.

Now the lag is bad, affecting gameplay and cannot be ignored.

It happens mostly when driving a vehicle into a new town, but also when going into a new location by foot (but less evident).


What concerns me is that this happens on a fresh vanilla install, with no configurations whatsoever from my side.


I tried reducing loot in types.xml

I tried reducing infected count in globals.xml abd also setting smin/smax to 0 and decreasing most of dmin/dmax in zombie_territories.xml

I tried disabling other events like train, police situation etc

I tried disabling animal events


Nothing really helps, I only see very small differences. This was not a problem in 1.28 even with increased loot and events.


I already contacted nitrado support, they moved the server to new hardware twice to exclude hardware problems, but that didn't fix it.


I also used winMTR to monitor network traffic. There was absolutely no packet loss.


I am not sure what to do to improve the gameplay. People playing on my server complain that they crash and die often when driving a vehicle


Could you please advise what I could do to fix it?


Thank you.
