So guys feel free to listen to any of these guys. But i am currently running 5165 flatfile. I have removed every bug it had. Even the stamina bug, attacking on horses. The rollbacks and relogging. Believe me this code works. Use it. Before you close the server type on the cmd /save and then /exit

Rollbacks are mostly from accounts that are online when server is closed. Trust me ive worked with the source longer than any of the guys tryin to critisize me :) Add new threading and Tidy up character.cs. The socket system it uses is not all that bad. You do that... an remove the bugs it already has an exceptions. U can handle 200 quite comfortably. Ive stress tested.

Arco ill prove it anyday of the week [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] x

Alright if you're so experienced, riddle me this:
Why are you using hashtables still? .NET is at 4.0 now, the Generics namespace has been introduced for a good while now. Are you needing to hash anything? No. There is really no reason for hashtables, at all. Learn to dictionary.

Why don't you just update variables on change? That would decrease rollbacks to the maximum. Learn to get/set.

In the time you spent on this source, you could have spent this time educating yourself on creating your own source. Learn to Learn.

Code:

                    }
                    if (Cmd[0] == "/save")
                    {
                        Game.Character[] BaseCharacters = new Character[World.H_Chars.Count];
                        World.H_Chars.Values.CopyTo(BaseCharacters, 0);
                        foreach (Game.Character C in BaseCharacters)
                        {
                            try
                            {
                                Database.SaveCharacter(C, C.MyClient.AuthInfo.Account);
                            }
                            catch { continue; }
                        }
                        Database.SaveKOs();
                        Database.SaveEmpire();
                        Features.Guilds.SaveGuilds();
                        Features.SkillsClass.Save();
                        Console.WriteLine("Server all saved.");

Knowing alot about NewestCOServer means shit when it comes to ACTUAL coding. Nullable, good friend of mine, has never once touched that source, yet, I'm willing to bet my left nut, that he would be able to fix all the source's problems in a day. Not saying he's going to, just point out that knowing alot about one source, doesn't mean that's the only way to fix it. I haven't touched that shitty ass source in over a year, and I'm sure I can fix any problem that source has. Dipshit.

#reported.

Threatening members is not allowed snow.

While arco may be being a tad rude here his point is correct... You're getting all offended cause he's pointing out some (fairly major) flaws in your coding logic.

EG: lets prevent rollbacks by making yet another command to save things vs just saving on modification... or on logout (doing it properly) or when server shuts down (handling the exit console event anyone? :O!)

You're obviously welcome to code any way you want but when someone corrects you (politely or other wise) acting all offended and threatening them is rather... childish.

Hmm, I think there are missing steps... I got everything to work right up until login. Just sits there saying logging into the game server, suggestions? :)

Can't see anything regarding my error, it's not the 127.0.0.1 error, because it's running off Hamachi.

Thanks

Hello everyone.
Small Question.

How does the DropRates work ?
I mean DropRates.cs and DropRates.ini ?
Do they share the same information or cs adds main info and .Ini adds a x2 to it ?
or something ?

Thank you :)

I am lookin for a coder to help me with newestco source. I have fixed 95 percent of the bugs. My server right now has around 100 online in evenings. Released for only 5 days. Made much money. I just have a few problems been found. I am lookin for a coder known to the community to help me in return for something they want. Yuki ditched me because... well i dunno to be honest lol. But my server aint failing like was said. So anyone who is intrested please message back or add me on msn [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...].

Also why the hell Recall NAME does not work ?

I removed the [PM] Check. still wont work !

Code:

if (Cmd[0] == "/recall")
                        {
                            if (Cmd[1] != "all")
                            {
                                Game.Character C = Game.World.CharacterFromName(Cmd[1]);
                                if (C != null && C != GC.MyChar)
                                    C.Teleport(GC.MyChar.Loc.Map, GC.MyChar.Loc.X, GC.MyChar.Loc.Y);
                            }
                            else
                            {
                                foreach (Game.Character C in Game.World.H_Chars.Values)
                                    C.Teleport(GC.MyChar.Loc.Map, GC.MyChar.Loc.X, GC.MyChar.Loc.Y);
                            }
