Over The Hill Gang Server/Connetion Problem Fixed
OK, since resurrection of the Over The Hill Gang servers, (yes, We're Back) the main server has had some connection problems originating from one of my ISP's. Packet loss was up to 12% at times due to line problems and the ISP performing an upgrade in the background, which is never seamless when you...

game trackers
Make sure when you config your server file that you check the "Allow Game Trackers" box

And on a same thing only different note: There are still serverops out there who do not care enough about the players or games to come to this forum and even discuss an issue. They should be encouraged to join, or informed that it even exist. I came here to support and promote the game. And of cours...

Got you beat by a year....but then it was released in 94 :) Different pilots then. We had six fire stations in Roswell. All networked together. Was a good stress reliever after hours. We played online also, but the LAN games were soooo, much better. Almost all the players I know are old farts, both ...

Krom just pm'd me with an idea that should satisfy both ends. Set Hunter's tool in the auto restart to one hour. It wouldn't inhibit game play, would satisfy those that don't want the time limits and it would be a very rare occasion, that the servers don't get restarted within at least a four to fiv...

much better
This is a much better string to address the problem Suncho. And Krom actually hit on an idea that will satisfy both ends. Set Hunters tool to restart the server once an hour. This would be invisible to players in the game and lessen the likelyhood of a game going on forever and causing the bug. The ...

Re: time limits
No. Same symptoms.Suncho wrote: I'm not having fun if the time limit bug is there.
Could these problems you saw "within an hour" possibly be unrelated to the time limit bug?

time limits
Like I said, you're out voted 25 to 1 by people who have been in the game longer. What if you're having fun and the level just ends, then no one comes back. I just came from one of your "broken" servers (roadkills) the game had been going on for 7 hours and no time bug at all. Yet you said...

I know that it only resets the server if there aren't players in it. If there are players in your server for more than 4 hours straight, that's a problem. If the players are there for that long (and it happens a lot, yes, because unlike you, most are there for the fun and not to check time limits :...

Check your facts :)
Well I know for the fact that Over The Hill Gang is broken because I've joined it many times and not been able to shoot or respawn. OK, one more thing again :) The fact is, you haven't been on any of my servers long enough (I checked the data base, both pilot and IP address) to form any REAL opinio...

Re: List of Broken Servers
We all know what happens to servers when they don't have time limits set on them. So as a service to the community I've checked all the servers and am providing a list of broken servers for 2 purposes: 1. So people know not to play on them. 2. So the server ops can fix them.
