Communication Issues?

[tzjin]

At Lone Star, there were a few matches with lag and comm issues. The FTA asked us, 1477 and possibly others to turn down our camera resolution/framerate, citing an overloaded bandwidth as the cause of our problems. As a result, we turned down our Axis camera feed from approximately 5mb/s to 3mb/s. Our programming lead was a bit confused, as we though the bandwidth was capped at 7mb/s. Anyways, we replayed two of our matches, still losing one and winning the other, when the other team complained of lag or lack of comm.

Interestingly, we experienced jerkiness during these matches, but were never as severely affected as other teams, some of whom did not move. Also, in eliminations, our alliance captain lost communication multiple times. Luckily, we were able to narrowly upset the second alliance, but were defeated in semi-finals by a single autonomous frisbee in both matches.
