When playing CTF games in rankwarz when ever someone grabs the flag either team doesn't matter the game randomly begins to have lag spikes(little box btm right of your screen). During gameplay it doesn't happen only when someone grabs the flag. Also, if you have the flag and jump into a vehicle it says flag dropped. that could be misleading when playing CTF. There is no apparent random lag spikes currently in other game types.
I noticed yesterday that whenever a player joins the server, there is a slight stutterance and the game has a hard time keeping up. This could be just something wrong with my installation of Halo, but I doubt it.
Ctf does have the largest backend for scoring. Ill try to streamline the system. Also onplayer join can be quite large. Ill look into it. Im out of town atm so it will have to wait
