pokepets360 Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 YAY! I have my very own server! Pokepets Mass Killing.... JOIN NOW! and one question, when people play on my server, does it affect my internet connection and when I'm off the net, can people play? when more people come, does the ping increase?

Dgtadude Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Yes it does affect your internet speed . and The server will still be online if you leave the OS (or what ever that black window is called) on . IF you close it . IT will close the server . If you disconnect the pc out of the internet the server will get offline (of course) . And it is very hard to have a server running and start using the internet and all that other stuff that needs the internet . Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 15, 2003 Author Share Posted November 15, 2003 so.... now that just sucks... how much does the server affect my internet speed? Link to comment
NosGoth Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Well it does consume like all of your speed. But I don't know what kind of internet-connection you have. And do you run the server on a "server" or on your own personal PC? Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 15, 2003 Author Share Posted November 15, 2003 lol... I got Verizon Online DSL, connects at 10mps and server hosts on my personal computer! another question.... how can I connect using the server admin? Link to comment
Robpol86 Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 the server uses arouind 2 Mbit inbound and a few kbits outbound (when it has 15 people). in the config file, u set the port and the password for the admin tool. i dont know how it is in the windows server, but it must b the same as the *nix server, atleast the conf file Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 15, 2003 Author Share Posted November 15, 2003 I don't get you.... my server can host 8 people... Link to comment
Robpol86 Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 .... inbound = download outbound = upload Mbps (bits) = MB/s (byte) ÷ 8 8 bits = 1 byte in other words it uses around 250 kB/s download and a few kbytes upload for a 15 person server. (now im just wastin my time but im bored...) Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 15, 2003 Author Share Posted November 15, 2003 I suck at this.... if all eight people are on the server at the airport shooting each other like shit, how much would it affect me and the players? Link to comment
Robpol86 Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 well if u really do have 10 Mbit, then your perfectly ok. even though i am curious about how u got around to obtain this... Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 17, 2003 Author Share Posted November 17, 2003 obtain what? 10mbs? Link to comment
Robpol86 Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 nevermind, forget it! Link to comment
Iggy Posted November 17, 2003 Share Posted November 17, 2003 lol robpol doesnt cooraporate good with morons Link to comment
pokepets360 Posted November 18, 2003 Author Share Posted November 18, 2003 I'm not a moron... I just don't get him Link to comment
NosGoth Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 thus you are a moron. What he means is that 10MBs is a extrmely fast internet connecting which is mostly not rentable for "normal people". Most of the time such connections are to be found at big companies. So you see. Thats why he doesn't understand how you got such a great connection. Link to comment
