Topic: R219 Test Server

We've put up R219 on the test server before going live on the main server because it includes a large overhaul of the network functions and we want to make sure everything still works.

Basically, we just want to know everything's still working, it doesn't need absolutely vigorous testing.

NOTE: The test server current has a copy of the live server database from 25/09 @ 23.00 GMT+1.

NOTE: Changes made on the test server will not be saved in a few days when we take it down .

Changes include:-

  • Added a Help channel for Ciscos help system. Can be toggled on/off like other channels with typed commands, also has a new colour. Use with /h.

  • Added a /em command

  • Added a /bonk command

  • Massive overhaul of network functions. Doesn't mean much to you guys as the clients, but it's a massive update and the reason for the test server. It's made the code much more manageable our end.

  • Other backend changes involving file and directory access

  • Removal of old debug code

Thanks

Re: R219 Test Server

Were testing a bit:

* /em looks good
* /bonk looks good
* /h works as expected
* /chan help on|off: when turning help channel off you cant talk into that channel, but you can still see what other ppls are talking in that channel. Checked how it works on /s: when you disable /s you can still talk to /s but not see what you typed and what others are talking (reversed behavior compared to help channel)

Also tested fighting on one mob, looks good (no issues noticed), it feels more fluid now but it happens maybe i were alone on test server big_smile
