Red chain and yellow chain?

Recommended Posts

What does a the red chain and yellow chains that show up on the screen sometimes mean?

 

Am guessing it has to do with connection? Thought I've still been able to keep playing sometimes even whenever I had a red chain?

Yellow Chain: Desync = Delays in actions(also known as rubberbanding)

 

  • You may notice on interactive objects requiring networking(zombies, players, animals, anything requiring action)
  • Sometimes aborting out of the server and coming back in may solve it temporarily.

 

Red Chain: No latency between client and server information; possible for server relating things like restarts or the client's ISP.

 

*One can analyze this by going to the player menu by clicking "P" by default, find your name and you can find your bandwidth and ping statistics.
