disconnects // WishlistbowenApr 27, 2003, 2:51pm
You know that shadow person who is supposedly connected when you get disconnected and
you have to wait 5 minutes for the Uniserver to disconnect them? How about shamus introducing the "knock the person off while they're on" mode, so we don't have to deal with this anymore. And this could also help tell if someone knows your password or not. ;) --Bowen-- r i c h a r dApr 27, 2003, 5:49pm
how about inport and export contacts feature to copy contacts from citizen
to citizen... You can already load them using contacts.txt but not save them. johnApr 27, 2003, 6:27pm
What about:
If Winsock produces an error on trying to send a message to the client then disconnect it? Simple :-D [View Quote] sweApr 28, 2003, 7:57am
then people will get disconnected whenever they get the slightest trafic
problem, not that simple. [View Quote] johnApr 28, 2003, 3:27pm
Swe, are you dumb?
This works just fine!!! lol! why dont people lose loads of packets going to aw? it only produces an error if they rn't connected [View Quote] sweApr 29, 2003, 1:01pm
well, first, if its server side, the only way it will be able to tell
weather or not it is connected is by checking for packages not arriving! so, if someone is having trafic problems, the packets wont arrive, and they will get disconnected. b) if it is client side, how the hell is winsock gonna send an error if you get disconnected, since you wont be connected to the internet! the way it works now is better, just it waits too long before finally disconnecting the client...
