So I ran into this issue many years ago when I tried a LAN party and never fixed it. Fast forward to today and I decided to try my luck at it again, but running into the same exact issue.

Server software: "swbattlefrontiipcserver_v1_1.exe"

Client software (from GOG): "setup_sw_battlefront2_2.0.0.5.exe"

This setup is purely a LAN setup, and I'm the only client connecting. The issue is that the gameplay is VERY bad, I wouldn't call it lag as the gameplay itself feels smooth, but the AI guys (and other players if I connect with them) constantly skip and blink all over the place.

In the server manager, I've changed:

Host Simulation Rate: 30 (not sure what this is exactly, tried leaving it default, tried changing it, didn't seem to help)
Server Type: LAN
Server Bandwidth Limit: 6 Mbps

Both the client machine and server machine are wired connections to the same router.

Server specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 950 @ 3.07GHz
6.00 GB RAM
Windows 10 Pro 19045.2364

Client specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6600 CPU @ 3.30GHz
8.00 GB RAM
Windows 10 Home 19045.2364

Is the server just too weak or something? Am I missing some other setting(s) that I need to fiddle with?

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you.
