And if it's not going to run on a machine other than your own, what's the point? That's kind of what dedicated.bat is for. --- End quote --- Your login account must match an email written in a auth file. Checking if the auth is a success is on the hosting computer. This means there is no potential for someone to gain access to your computer. Tell me how well you can start a dedicated server on your desktop, while on vacation and only have, say, the hotel's crappy computers, or a laptop. |

You have to understand that nobody is going to use this, and if they need something to manage their dedicated server remotely they'd use RTB. How many people do you honestly expect to: 1) Download this 2) Download + install + configure a webserver 3) Download + install + configure PHP 4) Mess about with their routers to get port forwarding configured correctly You realize this game is focused on kids aged 8 to 14? And you expect them to be able to do all this? --- Quote from: Scout31 on December 08, 2010, 03:57:15 PM --- * Secure Database Logins - 0% (Currently using direct access to MySQL Database, don't want to give the password to everyone. Will access through my website) --- End quote --- What's that about? You know you can't do that right? That's insane. You've honestly put absolutely zero thought into this yet you're already claiming it's nearly done. You're asking people to host the whole thing themselves but use a remote database? Where's the sense in that? |

That computer needs to be open for you to even be able to access the auth key (by the way, is that auth key going to be encrypted?). Unless you've written some very low-level code, that login's only good for accessing Blockland itself. If I were going to take this on (which I'm not, because not to sound like a broken record, but we've already got this in RTB), I'd manage auth and logins from a secured remote server with tunneling output so that it's not transmitting your desktop's IP and ports across 10 or more routers. |

You're wrong. |
