flyboi posted:All game servers use UDP to communicate as TCP has far too much overhead and is much faster since there's no handshake syn/ack requirements. Posting from the past but this whole thing is triggering me pretty hard, UDP makes sense but XML certainly doesn't, UDP has pretty severe limits on packetsize and if there is one thing that XML isn't then it's small. Why is this poo poo in a commercial-grade game engine. You also have some overhead because you still need some kind of ack/syn and ordering mechanism wrapped inside UDP. Somewhere someone mentioned a ship being 5Mb worth of XML for a client, even if that would be 50 discrete XML files a single fragment would quickly span over 100 packets (wireshark shows nice 1000 byte UDP packets) a piece, only need to malform/miss one for poo poo to go sideways and resend it all again. disclaimer: I maintain a handbuilt logging solution at work that uses UDP for similar reasons (TCP is unable to keep up with the sheer bulk of logging we do, which adds up to about 140Gb of highly compressed and normalized data a day, during office hours we get about 35k packets per second, adding up to 2.5mb/s) Because it is only logging it doesn't matter if a packet is dropped once in a while, but we still architected it so events never exceed a single UDP packet so we don't have to piece together bigger log events.

Seriously guys and gals, don't DDOS their servers. There are laws regarding that sort of thing. The shitshow is capable of bringing itself down without giving them any ammo to hit back with. Experimental Skin posted:The Shill is real. There are a few even on Frontier forums in the SC thread, and at least one moderator. Oh I recognise the shill SC posters at Frontier. They operate in batches and rarely post in any other ED forum. But a mod? I doubt it. Unlike the mods on the SC forum, those at Frontier tread a fine line and are careful not to provoke any poster. If anything, I think the mod is aware of shill accounts (or suspects it), and is playing along to see if they incriminate themselves. If you like, PM me the name of the mod you suspect and I'll have a look. I've been on the ED forums since the KS and have a good nose for who's genuine.

Why is this poo poo in a commercial-grade game engine. You also have some overhead because you still need some kind of ack/syn and ordering mechanism wrapped inside UDP. What particularly annoys me is that they're sending serialized data per tick. There is literally NO justification for it, you should know as a developer exactly what data do you need to synchronize and how often. This is a game that is supposed to have hundreds of ships moving at the same time in the same instance and these guys can't figure out exactly where in their loving payload the position vector is going to be. The cost of replacing this is loving huge, like, seriously huge. If not fixed the game will never be able to scale up at all as you will have to send a couple dozen megabytes per tick which will quickly consume any and all available bandwidth on both the server and client, and to fix it, you have to spent a very significant amount of time refactoring everything so networkable objects have some sort of DAO attached to them that knows exactly what to network about them and how.

The ticks aren't that huge, I think the largest I saw was around 100KB. That 5 MB line from croberts is trash. The client sends 18 byte udp pings to the server which then receives update chunks. I may see if I can graph ticks but not tonight.

All with no warning, and no explanation until I'd sent multiple emails over the course of weeks, only to then be told I deserved it. These aren't rational bans/infractions, they a trigger bans. Something is rotten. There is at least one self admitted Grand Admiral in there, gods bless him. It's possible the shills report posts they find 'offensive', and then 'mods' remove/infract/ban to give the process legitimacy. I'm pretty convinced there is something going on, but I suppose Hanlon rules, so perhaps not, just the usual imbecilic action.

MaxLexandre had a proper meltdown just before he vanished, his usual "haters, accusations of shilling, whiners, derek smart, goons, help I'm being repressed  " but with the brakes off and a lot crazier and offensive than normal. As I typed a reply I got kicked back to menu and his post was gone, he hasn't posted since. I think he's on a suspension/forum ban (he's had them before), and now he's using his Rolan alt (check the typo similarity  ).I think we broke him.

I suspect the mods at FD have been given instructions to clamp down on anything that risks igniting a flamewar, so pgabz's videos would fall into that category (funny as they are). Rabid SC backers will jump on any opportunity to point the finger and say 'see, ED players hate us and are jealous of the perfection of SC', which is what I meant by the fine line. Many posters that respond to the shills treat them with kid gloves. Only a few (and I recognise some usernames here!) take a more confrontational approach, which is why the SC thread(s) get locked for a timeout so many times.

Know then that it is the year 3000AD. The Known Universe is ruled by the Padishah Stimperor Roberts I. In this time, the most precious substance in the universe is cholesterol. The cholesterol shortens life. The cholesterol reduces consciousness. The cholesterol is vital to JPEG production in Santa Monica. Cloud Imperium Games and its developers, who the cholesterol has mutated over four years, use it to fold space. That is, travel to any part of the Stimpire without progress.

Remove him to a back office never to be seen again? Or is Ben going to "take some time off"? He's just going to try to ignore it, as will everybody else. If things keep looking ugly they'll put someone else in his place and keep Ben around doing some other thing. Remember that it was Chris that hired him, if he fires him that is the same as admitting that it was a dumb move, so it'll not happen. spacetoaster posted:Also, you also know Ben is sweating lard, losing sleep, and stressed beyond belief. He's an internet nerd like a lot of us. He's reading reddit, twitter, and probably this very thread (and the gbs one). Nah, he probably doesn't actually understand what the fuss is all about and is in a state of confusion. Why do people care about his lame jokes? Is there something wrong with them? Besides, he must have already talked with Chris and (even in the remote case where Chris is preparing to fire his rear end) he'll have reassured him that everything is fine.
