Thanks for all the replies everyone/@Community. Also thank you for the kind words @stelagel! I am not worthy.
I need to control my emotions better in the future. I was kind of venting my frustration with my opening post. I had just come off a session where I lost 3 npc/thralls due to my fiber tether breaking and having them slip into the mesh. The last of the 3 was T4 Iblis that I lost trying to navigate through a players base that was on my path back home.
I will endeavor to do better in the future! That way there are no misunderstandings. The last thing I want to do is cause any upset/commotion with anyone.
Keep on rockin’ the Exiled Lands and the Isle of Siptah!
Come on JJ, these new sandstone pieces need some love, don’t they. I fix (not more than 3 in every server) little sandstone cabins with tier 1 lattice pieces and a teleport stone in the yard. I even place a smoking chimney. My next thoughts is how to explain to people where this stone travels. I am thinking of placing signs (wooden)! Please don’t ban me .
@Technicolorfool it was not a compliment m8, it’s just the truth. Thank you for being you, a privilege to have persons like you here really!
Just fyi: if you name the Teleporter thingy, the floating stone will show that name instead of the default like ‘East Buttcheek Beach’ or whatever. Can’t remember if I told you already and it didn’t work for you if so my apologies
What is the next step. After you dictate how large a base can be. How many thralls a player can have? How many clan members you are allowed? You travel a slippery slope my friend
Be careful what you wish for. And good luck out.
the server I play on has a base size limit (30x30) a max of 15 thralls and it works very well. nobody can build where it blocks respawn or important resources and a warp room so no need to build your own map room. No limit to clan members and each one will add 5 more thralls… result the servers works smoothly.
Is it a G-portal server? Does it have the same volume of players as an official server both active and inactive? How often does it reset? There are many more factors to server performance than buildings and thralls.
And the kicker? You already found a private server that works for you. Absolutely no reason to change officials in the misguided hope it’ll improve server performance. The thrall limit certainly did absolutely nothing to improve it.
private server… about 50 players resets every day…and my answer wasn’t related to performance (even though the base size is important) but it was a response to nitecat who seem to believe that imposing rules on a server is a slippery slope and incompatible with his idea of the game… just saying that it works well when it’s well done
The rules state " Massive constructions or over-use of memory-intensive items leading to loss of performance both on client and server-side.", a city-size build would certainly fit the massive portion of this rule.
