Every now and then this happens...

Code:

[0] Timestamp: 2005/10/12 16:55:30
[0] Creating grid...
[0]

Timeout! Reason:
[0] User 3 does not know about netobject 2805
( gCycle nr. 2805 owned by ePlayerNetID nr. 2676, name
supple ).
[0] User 3 does not know about netobject 2804
( gCycle nr. 2804 owned by ePlayerNetID nr. 2763, name
zig ).
[0]

[0] Go (round 3 of 20 )!
[3] received logout from 3.
[3] zig left the game.

It happened to me once for no reason too. Just all of
a sudden you're disconnectd...

Suspected reason: resent messages are often packed together
into identically looking packets; a network glitch then deletes
these packets consistently.
As a workaround, randomization has been added to the
resending logic.

I'd be happy about further information on this issue, positive or
negative.

The randomization seemed to have helped.

No, it's still around. Or something similar. Little
information is available. Apparently, the client decides to
close the connection because the server sends invalid data.
A clientside recording of such an event is needed.
