Ok, I admit that I did not know the movement still got sent to the Server. Although, it would take time for the info of your movements to get there, and if there is an break in the info flow, and as such the levels are not loading because their info isn't getting to you, then it's a most probable guess that the movement info isn't getting tot he NPC Server, either.

Anyway, here goes once more!
The gralats are about 2x3 tiles in width/height respectively. now, the odds of hitting a 2x3 rectangle, on a 64x64 field, are quite hard. Unless you fluked it, because it was near the point you entered, you'd have to search at least, on average, half of the field. And, you'd have to do that in what, the whole 5 or so seconds that you usually get before the level loads, and dumps you back in the previous one again due to a timeout that gets automatically sent because of your lag?

It is kinda futile to keep arguing this with me, sorry. I can get past every one of your tries.
I KNOW this stuff. I lag. This is my world you're in.
