Alrighty. Long story in shortest form. I play Terraria, and recently had a friend start up a private server all the way over in Washington state (i'm in SC) server has been up and received regular saves and restarts
my problem, is today while trying to load into the world (on about 15 attempts, only one went through) the loading world screen is getting hung up at about 95%. I'm monitoring the memory usage in windows task manager, and one it hits around 95%, the mem usage peaks at around 290,000 k. The mem then proceeds to stop updating, and the world stops loading. I can back out of the screen, and try again.
While writing this, i was able to get in by restarting the game and quickly going through the options to join the world, but still had a few long pause type hang ups in the loading.
Anyone have a clue why this is happening / what it is / how to stop or fix it? Thanks for any and all constructive input.
