If you open that can of worms, it's important to remember that Kzintis were shortchanged the most...

I thought it was the feds that got Hexx...

Bartok, to repent you must write down 300 times:

There are few differences between the Bats. The time it took you to find that link, Dfly u could have instead posted the above of which you have easy access. Its in your specs folder. Is there a point you are trying to make here? Edit: well looky there, the Klinks have too many Ph1's on their Bats+ from 2268-2271.

Actually Dizzy I had no point to make other than to show you where Bartok took his information from.

I think the main point we're getting away from here is that I'm better than the lot of you.

ShadowLord · « **Reply #24 on:** August 07, 2006, 11:37:26 am »

I think we all appreciate the effort Bonk, Diz and others did.

With regards to SQL -- well look at it this way -- It took a few tries to actually make flying safe as well. Sure you can build something that looks like it will fly but you have to actually get in and try it to see if it will work. I wouldn't say this one crashed -- it just got a bit banged up on the landing and will come back stronger and better.

Perhaps the whole game can be summarized in a comment I made to a wing while in an online mission yesterday.

If only the original game was this good. (eh)

So keep up the excellent development work and know the entire community is behind this effort.

We really thought we had it... or were at least close enough to get it to run decently... SG6 experienced more and faster player loads in 2 days than it ever did on the forge, so the results were quite unexpected. We had hoped for a more Forge smooth like operation... Oh well. Good will still come from it.

Im so depressed. Mb if I go buy a laptop, something I've been wanting a really long time, it will help make me feel a little brighter. Then I can play my son in 1v1 SFCOP games. My other desktop I scrapped for spare metal... So what's a good graphics card to get on laptops now days? Go with the duo core or amd processor? I keep hearing 17" true widescreens are best, but are they just widened 15" or 14"?

Hey Diizy this will realy chree you up. Instead of gettign the LAP top for your shelf how about getting it for me. You know what they say..... Givening Giftes to other realy chrees you up.....

BTW great try. I was hoping to get on the SQL server but having the blasted problems that I'm having I was not able to. I hope that I will be able to get on the server when you bring it back up.

KBF MalaK · « **Reply #26 on:** August 07, 2006, 12:06:03 pm »

Yea, thanks for trying. I certainly had fun for the 3 hours it worked. But with 10K pp I can buy all kinds of new toys,

Muahahahaha

Dizzy or Bonk, when will the server be up tonight?

Courious KAT wants to know.

Well SQL was nice, very nice indeed, but if we have to switch to the fatfile then I am ok with it.. if we were near the end of the camp I would say just let the SQL stay up since I am perfectly willing to ride with the "burps" but if they are ony going to get worse then it probably will be better in the long run to switch to flatfile

About 7 PM Eastern.

But I'm in a bit of a dilemma. You'll probably all want to kill me but I'm tempted to try SQL again with some modifications to the serverside shiplist. (I got to thinking about what's different on The Forge) But I don't know if its worth it to try, the burping might continue anyway. I almost have the flatfile setup ready... Dammit I'm torn over what to do.

el-Karnak · « **Reply #31 on:** August 07, 2006, 01:40:03 pm »

We need Test harness code Bots to simulate player load by calling the API code for the SQL server kit..

I seriously think this is what it will take, so that we can do a proper automated stress test. Then we will have this problem licked forever.

We went through the same cycle with the dbl-fighter bug. Once we got a proper stress test env. up and going on Bonk's test server we cleaned up EEK code pretty quick.

SideSwipe9th · « **Reply #32 on:** August 07, 2006, 01:45:59 pm »

Well I don't mind if you go SQL again or go flatfile. The burps are nothing more than a small annoyance to me and don't get rid of the fun of playing the game

If you think it will work give it a shot

Well this is a really good opprotunity to hammer out the problem with SQL, so every modification is worth a try.. from what I have seen most of us dont really mind the burps so the longer we use SQL the more bugs will be hammered out of it(and better server stabillity), and it then will cause less problems in the future

FPF-Paladin · « **Reply #34 on:** August 07, 2006, 02:42:58 pm »

Whatever you think is fine by me, Bonk

I'll be here one way or another.

Capt_Bearslayer_XC · « **Reply #35 on:** August 07, 2006, 02:54:35 pm »

As long as the server is running on the 21st when I get fully back from Pennsic, I am fine with it....

!

Bonk... I'm with you no matter what you decide. I'm willing to give SQL another day if it means there's hope of keeping the OCI. The server date can be advanced tomorrow on flatfile to 2269 and we will retain all our progress and we will still be on track. I dont know why, but player population doesnt really pick up till the 70's. So it hasnt even gotten good yet.

Hexx · « **Reply #37 on:** August 07, 2006, 03:14:39 pm »

Everyone knows "normal" test SQL servers don't get eneough people on them, yet most of s don't show up for those anyway

I say push SGO6 on SQL as long as you can & get whatver info you can from it.

As has been mentioned, while burps are annoying- the fantastic OCI more than makes up for them.

Bartok · « **Reply #38 on:** August 07, 2006, 03:21:24 pm »

Here here I agree with what others have posted -

If you want to continue with SQL and see what's come of your edits/repairs I'm all for it. Not just because the OCI is great, but because getting you the information you need/want is a priority. Can always go to flatfile lateron if/when necessary. I'll be there with bells on either way!!

Cheers

Thanks for the webspace sky. I'll PM you when things get medieval on the server... Yeah, we lost a few features, but the core is there, bro. Draft your enemy and kill his ass! We still are able to assign ships so you can keep what you capture. Hopefully see ya back and while we flew, we had fun, huh? How bout that base assault?

well see. gotta get ready for school.
