DrenDran:
Chrono, I made a few important fixes and put the version at 0.9
But I assumed you were asleep anyhow, when and if you want to work on the mod just tell me, I'll wait for you.


Also, with the packet logging feature I got some interesting files, here's a small one:

I think you're going to encounter capacity issues down the line. I've had to put a lot of work into making sure the chat server for RTB can handle >500 concurrent connections and it doesn't look like you've put much thought into that.

I have to admit, I've never really had to think about ultra high capacity servers.
There's a fairly hard coded limit of 100 users at a time currently.

I guess I could either wait and see if it's going to be a problem, or take a serious look at it now.

I'd recommend addressing it early if you intend for this to be a mainstream chat application for Blockland users. Fixing this sort of thing is probably going to require a lot of changes to the way you manage connections at the moment.

I'll take a look at it, but there would seem to be no way to test out what works best until I get a larger userbase, because it's harder to test if a server can handle 500 users at a time when the most you've ever gotten at the same time was five. But hopefully once the first people start joining our growth rate will speed up.
