Consistent Green crashes

Plugged in my phone as a tether and even though that only gets 6-7mbps down, and 5 up, it's still much more consistent in loading zones...

crazy considering EQ hardly uses any bandwidth...

I live very rurally and have janky internet so I am well acquainted with this also. Even though EQ doesn't use any data it is very sensitive to internet speed and quality. I have about 10 down and 1 up where I live and if someone in the house is streaming I will hang while zoning and have random trouble logging in (No servers at server select, no chars at char select, time out errors and other random errors)

Even though once in game I have 100ish ping and no play lag at all, its just zoning/loading the game.

The question for Kenshi would be if they have problems getting through server select/char select/zoned in initially sometimes. That would indicate that the zone crashing is likely related to internet quality.
