Does RW support it tho? Maybe the Eep can spread a little insight into that
one.

AW needs a second level of code; at cell level and supporting strings,
something like the terrain grid but where you can set up commands, and it
would be loaded within a much larger distance.

Then put create fog commands onto that grid, instead of objects.

Thats because they did'nt think 'Hmm... bot'

That would have been so much more secure - Its why I think some new people

Fix the god damned SDK >_<

Do you know how extreemly difficult it is to explain to people "Oh yes...
sometimes even these tools which monitor your world will sometimes randomly
miss people, why? Oh - Because the world server coding is lousy!"

Please fix - Alex has done a substantial report, go check it... :)

While you are at it, please fix the SDK universe attributes bug which has
been reported oh... 20, 30 times by now.

Ok... better idea, learn to use Windows XP, fix your hardware because thats
practically the only thing that can cause windows XP to die : Hardware and
kernel mode drivers.

Personally Id not let you within 100 miles of the AW source code, and AW is
NEVER going to be OSS, personally the only external person id trust to do
something like this is Andras.

By the way, have you actually done a cost / benefit analasys, the
development time vs the payoff... I am pretty certain it would be in the
negative figures. Linux users form a tiny majority of internet users, what
next, demand a command line interface for building?

They are constantly working on newer versions, 90% of stuff from corprate
builds will find its way into AW, however - when AW 4x comes it will be a
big improvement.

It would be great if we had a session # of the bot sending the message
included as an attribute - at the moment unique identification of the bot
sending is impossible without pre-arranged keys.

Ok, tech lesson time.

Firstly, anything above 25 frames per second is pretty much pontless as it
is the limit of the human eye.

Secondly, the recommended video is actually 64mb, this is even getting out
of date as they add more things.

Thirdly, the positional updates of other users only happens at the world
update rates, between these times any position changes are faded through via
the browser, slower video cards will put a slightly larger time between
these increments - however as the browser will still let you hit targets
with the mouse during that time, the effect is very minimal.

Fouth, AW's physical system works in meters and milliseconds, not frames and
units, the distance you move over X time should be the same for all
framerates.

Fith, the real limit on moving about in lagged up worlds is disk I/O loading
the objects from disk into memory as you move about - this is the slowest
thing the browser does.

Sixth, the main limit on moving about and FPS in a local area is your use of
high polygon objects that are not made solid no (tip from stacee: make
plants etc solid no) because the collision detection has to check against
all of them, and guess what - this is absolutely nothing to do with graphics
cards!

Seventh, you clearly don't have a bloody clue what you are doing if you
think 35fps is a good number for people on 8mb graphics cards.

Eighth, if you are interested, I, and as far as I know, the AW programmers
who I talk to, use the frame rate cap in settings at about 20 fps.

Nineth... guess who requested, and tested, that frame rate cap in the first
place on Beta... umm,... uhhh. me :)

> On second thought, what world do you own Strike, that gives you all of

> incredible insight and knowledge?

Hmm, well...
I have recently helped to build Arc,
I tested the browser frame cap when it first came out
I have had detailed discussions on it with the owners of various RPGs
I know the implimentation issues of pretty much the entire AW browser
I have been producing events for 4 years, most of which as one of the AWT
events team
I have produced more paintball games than AW has X rated worlds
I have, and wrote, the perfect bot for testing movement
.... and on and on and on.

Will someone please indicate to me where I am selling bots or services? The
last time I checked Eclipse Evolution, one of the most advanced bots out
there, was available free from my download site at
http://zetech.swehli.com/software/evo/ - make sure you all check for regular
updates! ;)
