Two little bars

What do the two tittle vertical bars (that change color when your're playing) in the lower right hand corner of the screen indicate?

Right most is bandwith being used, shown as a percentage of the max (max is set in your preferences, network tab)

The other one is packet loss. When this one gets a lot things go wrong. You wanna lower your max (in the network settings) until this one stays all green. The highest setting you can do where it stays all green is the best.

Thanks Ama,

At last, something I can work with but couldn't find the anwer anywhere in the help documents. If I could rate your reply, it would be an A+.

If you hover your mouse over the bars you should see a little pop-up display information about those bars.

This also works for some of the other widgets in the UI, just like it does for objects in the world. For instance, when scripting you can hover the mouse over a function call to bring up some information about the arguments that the function takes.

Yes, I wanted to thank whoever programmed that in AND the person that replaced the 'default' button with a drop down list of system methods and constants available. Even though I can type faster than I can find a method on that list, it has already helped me numerous times when I couldn't quite remember the exact name of a method I wanted. Thanks!

More great info....I'll learn this game yet and this info will allow me to tweak the computer so I can stay on longer, without crashing as often.

Thanks again
