Title: Found another stealthed update
Post by: virus man on April 08, 2009, 03:48:17 PM
BW is now capped when transfering from npc servers.  Capped at 10,000kb bw

Actually I think that is so for a long time ... I noticed that at least a month or more ago. :)
I thought it was always like that?

yeah, it has always been capped at 10k from npc's, but from real players you can go up higher.

With player servers you are limited by their bw. On npc you can overload bw by unlimited times - up to 10k bw from one of your servers.

I remember a former member of SGP uploading to NPC servers at 15K+ hence why I mentioned this.

Hmm .. did anyone tried uploading to npc now? :)
I tried only download, perhaps upload is still uncapped? Don't have any high bw server free right now ...

I believe you are correct, i distinctly remember downloading from one particular secret server at 25k (it was the ol' faith AV, hence the mega-bandwidth-attack /lol)

It's been like this for at least 6 months but you don't discover it that easily so I understand the surprise.  :7:

I'm pretty sure HJ said he was capped at 15k last round

Well if that is the case the cap was reduced again.

I may do some more testing once people decide to leave my poor server alone /lol

just retested, and yes, on npc servers it is still capped at 10k.

Hey it's HJ. After many attempts of trying to log in on my other s/n, I have given up. Anyone know how to make the r in a circle...on an iPhone? I am stumped.


Anyways, from what I remember, this wasn't always the case but it was eventually capped at 10k to match the user server limit.

I may be wrong though.

Gosh I hate iPhone's.

Latest update to this is the inability to go over the NPC's BW anymore.  There was no announcement of this latest change.

It was here in the Factions Project list:

"- secret servers bandwidth will behave like a player server. Bandwidth will no longer be overloaded for secret servers. Public servers will still be able to be overloaded in bandwidth to support as many downloads."

Ok if you want to bring back more R1 SGP tactics that is fine with me ;)

He doesn't care about that.....He only cares about ending round 2 before the updates are completed.     :bodyguard:

I do not worry about that. i think players are clever engough to create their own tactics and that groups as SGP will be able to legaly "exploit" the new features (that means taking knowledge of the new game engine and planning the most efficiently way to use them).
