9th player?

[Johan]

I did look into it before, but never got the time...

Now I spent some hour checking stuff over...

The bandwidth costs could be huge for a big game, and the interface can't really fit too many players...

Technically the game should now be able to support 24 players, but I doubt the bandwidth can handle anything remotely close to that

Here's an executable with a test scenario if anyone wants to test if it works with > 8 players..

Apply it over the 1.06b Beta 6.

Fixed some bugs we discovered, like the transfer and the lobby ctd..


I noticed the chat ctd still there and will work on it tomorrow evening..

Who was Aragon?

I was Castile, and I know we used the free cb to declare war upon you

Would have been a fun little war..

The most I've seen was 17, IIRC. Was a little bit laggy, but not completely unplayable once the laggiest one or two dropped.

I've optimised bandwidth a bit today, so hopefully should be less laggy with 15-20 players over the net.
