I think most of the servers on the list are only there because the server program was ended with the cross symbol in the window corner instead of using escape or /end.
I can't deactivate the symbol because the help file of SET WINDOW LAYOUT says:

Then make an app that runs on ONE pc all the time,that checks the server's activity.If a server does not respond delete it from the list.That should work

EDIT:

Your server times out all the time,No firewall and such.

I am interested in your manner of handeling data.

What is your current setup for the server and client?
Do you send the players positions, actions, etc. every loop to each player? Because that would be a little inconvenient when it comes to an MMO game (2000 players, alot of data transfer)
Or do you check within the server program which persons are close enough to send the data to? But that would be a very slow server program when it comes to handeling 2000 players too. For the distance check, that would mean it would calculate 2000x1999 distances each loop, and send data accordingly.

I'm trying to create an MO game myself, but can't come up with a fast and efficient server-client setup...

It's the programmer's life:
Have a problem, solve the problem, and have a new problem to solve.

Yes I do exactly this.

Quote: "For the distance check, that would mean it would calculate 2000x1999 distances each loop, and send data accordingly."


hmm, that's true, with "only" 20000 distance checks the server has already only 80 fps. But there is no other way i see.

True, on the other hand...

In an rpg, I guess it's not THAT important to have a small lag right?
Though it would be nice if there was a more efficient way...

You need to compress the update files, their a bit big like this..
Get winrar and make all the files a WinCon SFX archive, it will put the file in a rar, make it like 5-6 times as small, and make it into a self-extracting archive, just run the exe and it will extract the file into the directory. the update is taking ages with 20 kb/s

Edit: when the update was finally done i couldnt connect to a server, so i hosted it, and connected.
and its a GREAT game.
nice music, nice models, i love it!
maybe add a sync sleep 1 to the server so it goes easy on the cpu..

How did you make the lego minifigures? Did you make them or import them?

I'm hosting a server called albertross, I'll try leaving it running all day.

I havent forwarded the port to 3999 cuz I don't have a clue how to.
But windows firewall has prompted to allow so I'm allowing it connect.

Have fun.

<edited> going out for a bit will leave my lil man standing there if anyone wants to kick him
<edited again> you also might want to consider a feedback email address on your website. I've looked but can't find it.

I would really like to be able to take camera off 3rd person behind mode so I can see its front.

Hmm , I think we need a bit more info on the port forwarding and what certain errors actually mean.

I keep getting firewall messages when trying to log onto other servers.

I think the biggest update which would make more sense would be stating how many pepole were logged onto a server so we could go to a populated world. This would get more people interacting and
pull even more people in.

and if you can't access the server to put you back to the server screen rather than kill the application.

Also a lego coin system and a few monsters(skeletons)/or something to kill. (this and saving your cash total somewhere). would give people an insentive to come back.

Sorry for the double post.

Also your server list is NOT updating the 2 servers I created yesterday are still on the list even though they've been off for nearly 24 hours.

<edited> something killed my computer, not sure if it was one of your programs or not..probably not.

You need to get your network system a bit more stable and give us some extra information on what to do if we can't connect to different servers. Updating the server list is a must and users listed on it would help (maybe update your server list everytime someone try to access it?)

Once more people can access and at the same time I'll try again and maybe host a server for you for a week or so on a spare laptop.

As it stands its quite difficult to know when anyone is on and if any servers are active which makes it hard to warrant spending time on it.

<edited again> I was really hoping this was really a WIP, seems like I'm the only person watching

I really hope to see this achieve something really good, soon.

I have all the ports forwarded, program allowed, all firewalls disabled, and I can still only play on my own server.

Is there some reason for this?

Think i I have my ports forwarded and everything as above.
Chances are the other servers don't exist anymore. I will just see if the server list has updated.

<edited> I'm getting run time errors stating the object does not exist on the server and the client exe's, I can only asume this is due the hosting server being down.

Can i ask how you do the movement so smooth and show the correct positions?

When i do movement smooth its really smooth but when moving a while it starts showing wrong positions and laggs (cuz moving to right position)

And if i do very accurate moving it laggs..

Just tried CIC and it doesn't let me on. gonna try hayers.. first time today I got the bloomin prog to log on.

It still has my 2 servers I made over a week ago, so looks like the server update is broken.

hayers gave me a firewall error.

<edit> I'm sure there must be a way you can get whatever is hosting your server list to ping servers that come online. and then tell them if they have a firewall up?

when i tried to run the file from your site it wanted to update from 1.7 to 1.8 so i said ok, and now when i run the program it gives me a file not found error at line 10

edit: to clarify, the autoupdate says file not found at line ten, the legommorpg exe lets me choose screen height, width, depth and fullscreen mode, then gives me a file not found at 2985 error.

I bet someone has said this but why not make the landscapes out of lego's as well? And if you are doing everything else (buildings etc) in legos as well that would give this game a amazing graphical stand point.

If someone says plz because it's shorter than please I say no because it's shorter than yes
