Title: Important notice to all players - good news and bad news
Post by: David_Omid on April 30, 2010, 10:58:56 pm
As most of you are aware, I have been working a lot lately on the server scripts, mainly on the vehicle script

All of the Argonath scripts are good but as we all know, there is always room for improvement

These improvements mainly come in the form of bug fixes and other optimisations, such as reductions in lag and re-writes of already existing systems which are currently used in order to produce better ones which are easier to use. An example of a good re-write is Gimli's new /buyweapon menu system.


I intend to work a lot on script improvements. This means that I will be fixing as many reported bugs as possible, I will be re-writing scripts to reduce lag to a minimum and also I'll be trying to make things easier for everyone.

Also I will be introducing new features as always, but lag and other issues take priority


That's the good news, now the bad news...


The bad news is that a lot of these optimisations, mainly the re-write may require live testing, meaning that there will be a lot more server restarts while these script optimisations are taking place


I kindly request that players do not get angry at me for restarting the server/reloading separate scripts as I am only trying to make things better for you. I also request that players post all bug reports in the correct section instead of trying to tell me about them in-game as I will not be able to remember them and I like to keep a record of them.



Just so that everyone knows, I will be making a lot of changes to the vehicle script as there are a lot of bugs which need to be fixed and also the general structure could do with some changes. Although this shouldn't affect players, there is always a chance that things can go wrong so expect server restarts and live tests.


Thank you

If server developers AND owners had a pay-by-cash system, I'd have already sent ~$50 USD in total for the expenses and hard work.

You guys aren't paid for what you do. You do it out of the kindness of your being. I respect this. Kudos and cookies.

As long each restarts goes towards the best for our server, then we have nothing to be angry with!

Make us proud, and we'll be patient! ;P

Vehicle script is currently down, CBFASI and I are working hard to fix the current bugs that certain players are experiencing

The problem involves file corruption which is the main reason why the vehicle script has been disabled for now, we do not want other players to be affected by the problems

We do apologise for the inconvenience

For now, at least for me all the ' bugged ' vehicles are spawning at their dealers or last deliver points, but now their ID's won't match up the ID listed in /invent. Plus the fact that /heydude is incorrect and your vehicles act now like SALES vehicles. (21:22CET, today)
