12 hours again after the server reset, it crashed again.
So we can rule out SQL or the shiplist causing it.

I replaced all the gf files on the Litterbox with the DOE GF files. And then ran the server, and guess what??
It didn't crash.
So, we have now narrowed the problem down to a server setting. (Fluf's fault... LOL!!) Which one, I have no idea because nearly all the settings are different.
Don't be too alarmed if some of the ship prices, spare parts, turns per year are a bit off at the moment. They'll be fixed shortly as they are all set to the Day of the Eagle specs currently. (Yes, that means for now you can blame Scipio for any problems!! Mwuhahahaha!!)

Figures, Fluf ... I think all who have not voted for biggest donut hole should obviously see Fluf as a winner.

Well maybe this is a blessing in disguise

Im getting my butt kicked by the AI. The mission I find the hardest is the Courier mission. It is usualy my DD with two F-FFs Vs. L-CA, 2x L-CL, L-DD. Ouch

SOOOO, if all the settings are screwy, they'll be fixed in a little while, but my 2000 points will be gone anyway so It won't matter.... nggggggg..........!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok... I've made some adjustments to the gf files. All the spare parts, shipcosts, etc, should all now be Litterbox settings.
The errant gf file (I say this tentatively) appears to be metamap.gf, when I replaced the Litterbox metamap.gf file into the server, it crashed straight away. I may have missed a setting somewhere when editing the gf files to Litterbox specs, so if there is anything erroneous at all, please post it here.
Oh, thanks to FireSoul putting up a chat server, chat is now working on Litterbox 3.

Oog. Call me when this all gets straightened out once and for all.

I'll try and amuse myself with something else until then. I had finished yet another harrowing mission in an F5C this morning, gotten my obligatory 300 PP and that's gone all for naught again. heheh...

Dog, it should all be ok now, so feel free to start racking up prestige.

Yep everything seems to be working now as it should. Appearantly, I left a setting I was using in single player to test with in the MetaMap.gf and it was causing the server to crash when it changed years. Anybody that was playing from last night should still have their ships and PP. This was not a reset, just a change in the files.

Note: you now have mandatory missions in neutral space. We can change that if you would like to see non-mandatories in neutral.

Oh and its all Scipios FAULT!

Can someone tell me where one can get the latest updates please? Jumped in a few days ago to check the shiplist and now of course changes have been made giving me my favorite CRC errors. I'll sit around till everything is working - till then i'll keep having a ball with Freelancer.

The F-CL is based on an "old style" cruiser.. and has only 2 photons.
The DD is a more modern saucer styled ship, and has 4.

I think I would rather have the F-CL over the F-DD.
