purple instead of either (priority 1 or 2) server

Postby coyote2 » Mon Mar 17, 2014 5:20 pm

I keep an eye on which of my two servers (priority 1 is giganews, priority 2 is a tweaknews block account) so I can avoid eating up my block account (priority two, fill) unnecessarily.

Usually when I expand (click +) on a fileset Current Progress shows which server was used (priority 1 I set to green, priority 2 I set to yellow).

But in the current fileset a few lines are yellow, but most (both Downloaded and Downloading) are solid purple? Can I assume purple doesn't equal my fill server, please? Advice?

Probably too many chunks to display in color so, it reverts to a single color progress bar instead of blocks. You can't actually tell which server the chunks come from in this case. The download amounts in the server options page will reflect how much each server downloaded though.
