*Summary
2006-08-20
I`ve uploaded an initial experimental update regarding this to the UC and the test result seems to be pretty good, managed to free up 2.5 GB worth of database space (less space = faster when finding for data). therefore i`ll be updating the GC database as well on specific areas.
By right most players will not notice any of this changes, mainly it is because the changes effects the game engine and how the game engine handle data and all that (backend stuff).
Changes:
1. PM friends & Ban
number of friends and player ban from your PM has been reduced to a variable value, this means instead of limiting it to 10-15 you can add up to 5-15 depending on the player. all friend & ban list has been deleted due to the new system.
2. Tech tree list & research, ship & project list
We have changed the way our system handle these data, increasing the efficiency at the same time reducing the database space (harddisk space) involved. Due to change (#1 & #2), we have managed to save up to 2.5 GB of database space ! Hurrah !

Goodspead 99+ day(s) ago | it means faster server reset better response practycaly less where and less cost. so u should see that it starts to move faster, unless the engine is less eficient on speed.
It is good that there are some improvments made to this game. Good job |
