Server questions

by Mathieu Marquis-Bolduc · in Torque Game Engine · 03/17/2005 (3:19 pm) · 2 replies

Hi!

I've got some good programming experience, but Im all new to Torque. I have two simple questions:

-Is it possible for a single server to handle several map/missions at the same time?

-Is it possible to run several instance of a game made with Torque on the same machine at the same time?

The answers are problably plainly written somewhere, but I did an extensive search on the site and forum, but found no definitive answer.

Thanks!

As it is currently configured, no and no.

However, I would venture that if you change the port settings in the source, change the scripting to match, disable the Master Server checking/Reporting and have users connect directly to the proper IP address you shoud be able to.

Not sure how licensing affects all this. That's on MY list of things to get clarified along with server load questions.
