50 slot server
« on: May 26, 2007, 10:41:45 pm »
I joined this 50 slot server that someone made not too long ago.
How does someone make a 50 slotted server?
It makes no since, did he use a program that I can get? If so where can I get this program?

You can't make a 50 slot server, he misconfigured it

Mis configured?
But the slots still worked, we got to about 43 people and it started to lag like hell
It just sounds cool and I want to be able to make one

It's not possible to actually have that many slots, because packets only have room for 32 players; any players above that will be bugged.

Not to mention that the server is accessing memory outside of an array; the server is lucky it didn't segfault.
