How many scripters used ThreadFunc

[DorkeyDear]

How many of you guys actually used ThreadFunc?

If you used it, what do you use it for? GetURL maybe? Sockets?

[Boblekonvolutt]

Once or twice, for exploratory purposes. It was pretty messy.

Well this func was used on our climbing servers  Epic Climb and SNI Pro Climb EU  lately and in the past on AUS and US servers and it was probably on ClimbingSoldiers server when it used to live, but I am not sure, I have a bad memory . We have a complex database of thousands of caps(tops) ,players and other statistics on our web:

Code: [Select]

bluemutiny.com/noodlesWe are using threadfunc for geturl, http encode and all these web/database things I dont have a clue about. Bloo would be able to explain it better, he is the one who got together this awesome climbing database.
We are still improving our servers but now we are facing bigger server lag and connection errors due to missing threadfunc  .

I used it for certain skills in RPG scripts.

GetURL to access an PHP interface which handles accounts. Otherwise it would freeze the whole script while waiting for a response =P
Atleast that's what i remember
