    It is a bug. Duplicates objects exspecially when you copy already selected objects. Chloe-Tool is very good help for the past years. How you can see - it is a damn old bug (nooo Chloe is not old - but I guess I am using this tool now about 5 years lol)
     
    Regarding your question with guests beeing close together:
    Always try to keep the room size below 3mb file size if you are dealing with 100+ guests. Dynamic effects and the old lights you should not use. In generall the room starts to lag what ever how it is designed when the guest are above 180 Guests - in my mind. It also depends on which system you are working with.. gpu ram bla bla bal
     
    The best what you can do is talk with peeps who are opening rooms daily. They do know how the business works

    This can happen near a prop containing a huge number of objects

    The size of your build doesn't always equal lagging rooms.
    I have experienced large rooms that don't lag, and also small rooms under 500KB lagging to the extreme.
    Sometimes it just boils down to the complexity of what you have built in a localised area.  Too many objects in the same spot can cause the game to Lag.  If you can, try to build complex looking builds with the least number of objects as you can.

    Low FPS are mostly caused through special FX and lights, smoke and fog for example cause a lot of stress on the game if you use them a lot 
    Lights with reflecting surfaces cause a similar issue, so most metal textures can get you bad performance if you use them a lot

    The file size itself most likely causes longer load times but that is it.

    You can have maps of the size of 10 MB without much lag

    it should be ok. You have no reason to delete anything. One thing you can do is round the value with this
    My room is around the size of yours and it does not cause problem

    If you already checked on duplicate props, you probably used a tool like Chloe's Remove Duplicate Tool.
    Flames and sparks don't contribute much to file size but they contribute to lag.
    File size is directly dependent on the quantity of individual objects you use. Some props that we add can represent several thousand objects. You can check how many objects your world has by using the tool I mentioned above.
    For a file size of 3.8MB you should have more than 50000 objects in it.
    I would advise to check how many objects there are on the props you add. I remember adding a jukebox that increased file size by 0.5MB because it was amazingly detailed.
    There is another tool (an excel file named 3dxWorldEditor) that allows you to reduce the number of decimal places stored on each object location, scale and angle. By setting the precision to 3 or 4 decimal places you can considerably reduce the file size without compromizing accuracy.
    I have seen worlds with more than 10MB that don't experience excessive lag, so it's a balance between some light effects and the actual quantity of objects.

    It won't let me sign in to the Members area of the site, either, just reloads the login screen over and over.  I'm glad "work has been completed to stabilize the server."  Can't think where we'd be without that.

    It gets really old.  So many friends aren't on here anymore, so many fun rooms are gone. Its really getting depressing

    What happening now is absolutely unacceptable.
    It will not work the way it works with updates.
    Yes, people may be pissed when you don't release ones, but most are just bitch and moan, but not leave.
    But server instability for how much... half year already? People will leave. People already leaving. Online numbers slowly, but dropping, I think you noticed it yourself. Even with discount. 
    Your game will die if things will keep going the way they are going.
    You have to fix it. If you can't do it yourself – then hire someone who can. Or it's only question of time till this game will be a desert. Don't take it as some kind of blackmail or some other bullshit like this please. I am not that kind of person. It's just obvious future of the 3dxchat if servers will keep being as unstable as they are.

    Well written Xizi, 100% agree with you, already lost a ton of friends because of this ongoing issue and I doubt they'll be coming back ever again.
    And new players buying a month only to realise the server is down almost as much as they are online, will look elsewhere as well and probably never return either 🙄
    It does feel like 3DX is dying, especially since no one is giving any information about anything.
