Crush it's called education. The basic halting problem is not something anyone can just hash out for you. Once again a specific problem could have several good solutions while this generalized epenis contest you have devised is puerile.

Re: Ways to sync the clients so the game will look better?
A guy has to ask himself questions because all the people here are either afraid of how stupid they will seem or all too sure they already have done the best anyone can do that they will never ask. Would you like me to spoof my ip as well? I thought about it for half a second and decided it wasen't ...

Re: Ask the Wizard //codex of game
It would need to be a program that generates the code of the program, or the program, and reads or genertates the database as well. Specific issuses I can give you specific answers. Like the ones people post as bugs or issues they had with mana world or even more specific issues coders have like &qu...

Re: Ways to sync the clients so the game will look better?
That guy said nothing like he wanted a flock or to be crowned king. He was trying to help and you didn't even start to take advantage of that. What if he was John Carmack? What if he was the lead coder for world of warcraft? I don't think he wanted friendship I think he wanted to work with you. He n...

bugs? these things bother me
These things bother me: 1 players blip around the screen in an unnatural manor 2 the selection of weapons and armor is so limited 3 things that drop off kills are sometimes invisable for awhile 4 can't see if other players are hurt 5 can't click somewhere to leave a room I entered without needing to...

Ask the Wizard //codex of game
I don't have all day so ask a question about how to fix an issue (even if you think there is no other way) and I'll give you one or more professional quality solutions. I'll follow up clarify within reason as well. Talking is great but in a forum everyone can go back and referance as needed. Q1 how ...

Re: Server replacement; Good idea?
I have played the game and I think you should have given that guy a chance. I myself have coded several clients and servers with sdl net so I understand this code easily. This code is quite amaturish, but you learn as you go. Lots of pro million dollar projects need to be started over from scratch s...

Re: Ways to sync the clients so the game will look better?
not one reply? really? Not any "what's a zone?" or "We already do that!". Shame. If you come across my game in the future and decide that I'm the kind of guy you wish would give you tips on how to redesign this.. ..just ask. How will you know it's me? I'll mention this in the cre...

Re: Server replacement; Good idea?
You guys use sdl and asl_mixer and sdl_net ect ect. This game was started as a simple cross platform code and now that I have reviewed the code it looks like a monster of stuff that needs to be redesigned. There are a ton of small issues that stem from a lack of basic understanding of how games work...

Ways to sync the clients so the game will look better?
Zones? Server snaphots it can use to rewind time? Statistics on each client's latencies? If these things are not in the game it would probably mean you'd need to gut the server and remake it from scratch pretty much. The design would be from scratch, but I guess half of the code would stay relevant....

Re: Server replacement; Good idea?
I'm hearing.. something like.. you should try it cuz it's hard and I helped make one and it's hard. It's actually quite simple once you figure out how to send something to the server and back again. I haven't started an in depth look at the client code yet and I haven't start the server. Have I cre...

Re: Server replacement; Good idea?
I mean getting the game in sync so clients know where each other are at, and collisions are such that it looks like there is no lag. That's the short explanation. The long explanation is very long.

Re: Server replacement; Good idea?
Imma c/c++ coder so all these tools mentioned in the dev materials seem like a step backwards for me. If the server code was my kind of code I could put in some simple motion planning but I wouldn't know how to translate that to flex and bison and python and such. You guys have c/c++ code but use o...

Server replacement; Good idea?
Hi, I just downloaded the client code and I must say that it's not at all shabby. I was planning on making my own server and to use a tcp lib I know how to easily use. If I'm right there is no motion planning in the server at all? I do wish I could see the server side workings currently in place so...
