major bug, should be fixed tomarrow, back on IO netowrking for now
Okay just one big update. NEW NETWORKING!
Okay this may not make much sense to about 99% of you. But the server has been using an IO networking system for the past 3 years.
For those of you that don't understand, IO networking is the basic networking used by almost every server alive today. Due to all the expected upcoming summer traffic and flooders, we're upgrading to MINA networking, an advanced/upated version of Netty networking, which is a nice networking system that uses multiple threads to allow more then 1 connection at a time.
What does this mean for you? FASTER LOGIN SPEEDS! Sick of seeing error connecting to server? It should now be extremely rare. The login server is now multi threaded, meaning it can handle way more connections at a time. It use to be 3 people being able to login per second, now it should be about 50/sec if not more. (possibly infinite/second haha)
Anyways, this is a big update in my eyes, should ensure the ability to login way more. And also that pesky error about using your forum login info should be elimated with this update.
If you find any bugs, be sure to let me know. Hopefully it all is working fine, if not i'll probably revert back to IO temporarily until the known bugs are fixed.
currently known bugs:
-none

ENJOY EVERYONE
