I went away yesterday and came back and now all my characters are acting total fools. They run around for no reason, they take 5-10 seconds to respond to anything, and they keep letting my warrior die. What can be causing this?
 
Make sure you don’t has “follow me” on party bar turned on as well as chase turned on that can make characters behave as described.
 
Ur delay in response sounds like the eqbcs 1 issue, that is why I use eqbcs2

If ur afking, maybe they're protesting

The characters "nav" to follow me even when i dont tell them to. My tank is changing targets even without being commanded to.
 
Believe Sic he is all knowing about most things MQ2. I had the same issues that you were having. I changed to EQBC2 and have not had the issue.
The longer you are logged into EQBC it seems the more laggy your experience will be.

I didn't even know there was an EQBC2. I just used the EQBC that comes with RG. Where do you get it?

Switched over to EQBCS2 and still having the issues. Is there an issue with EQBCS and sketchy hotel wifi I don't know about? My toons are running all over the place. like morons.
 
I wonder if your response time is the issue. I was told that 90 to 110 ms was good (F11 in game.) But you will see added delays (lag) when you exceed 120. Running all toons on the same computer does not guarantee same service. You could have one at edge of pipe that could be hitting 150 or higher, that could cause mq2 and lag to generate odd results.

Well, thats certainly possible. although you'd think it'd just be slow instead of completely bonkers. My bard wont assist at all unless i force it, and i cant even get combat to work normally.
