If u make a server with 20 bots on my comp and join the server myself it is very laggy because of the bots. Yet if i join a server with 20 bots or so there is no lag. (only the ping lag) which doesnt make a difference to how slow it runs.


WHY?????????

Your computer is trying to load all of the frames per second while you play. So your computer is affected for than for someone joining the server. So for the user, the game runs really slow.

The other servers computer is most likely faster and more stable than yours.Thus,less lag.

EDIT:Ender.4 seconds faster.And that too.Your computer is the one sending and recieving all the frames and everything else.
