Scripting Questions
« on: August 25, 2007, 11:05:35 am »
Does Scripting Cause the server to lagg more than normal?
Does it cause player's FPS to drop to 2 - 10 ?
Does it vary from script to script or is it just because of the server provider?
[My Server Provider is EnEsCe]
Does having a script disabled mean it wont cause lagg or does it have to be removed entirely?

As far as I know scripting will only lag the server if you have things such as sleep or infinite loops which are not in their own thread.

Well these scripts are on my server.

Major kicker (Enabled)
Position Saver (Disabled)
Invincible (Disabled) {Was a test in 1.4.1 to see if I wasn't a total Server Admin n00b xD}

Having scripts running will slow down the server slightly; it's only natural, you are doing extra work that requires processing time. A well written script shouldn't have a noticable impact however.

If a script is disabled it shouldn't have any impact on the server, aside from using disk space.

Scripts shouldn't affect clients frame rate, unless you start spawning lots of health crates or something.
