Suggestion for Better Server Performance and AI

[-myg0t-Azide 0]

Most of the burden on my server stems from AI calculations being trhrown in on top of server management.  Would it be possible to code a "stand-alone" AI client that could be run on a separate machine (no graphics, just behavior) and have that data sent to the server as if it was a collection of clients logged in?

In this way, the server job would not have the burden of AI calculations and perhaps people could have custom AI clients running that log in as "teams" to servers.

.. add a multicore CPU to that and you could actually make use of

it with the server software by running the AI server on one core

and the dedicated server on another. I think that would be the

main advantage for most people.

On the other hand you probably can't just rip out the AI routines

like that and give them their own dedicated app.

They have already stated in another thread that a multicore fix is not high on their agenda, so it'll be after the 505 release that they might address this problem.....

I thought it would be cool for people to come into a server with their custom BOT posse. Only controlling the bots or setting their AI tweaks as a client.

why i always think about calling another MLRS strike when i see "[myg0t]" tag

... nothing in ungood or personal ....

AI is not the problem, it's users connected that cause the big problem. Try a dedicated server with just yourself connected along with a heap of AI, the server should run it fine until you get to many players.

You're just a bunch of 12 year olds who get picked on all the time myg0t! And you know that as sure as your rotten banana dances.

If you want the brooms to sweep well you should not neglect the handles!

I don't understand.

Please keep this thread on topic.

[Dwarden 1125]

We game. We're not here to "frighten women and children in the dark of night" -Kerry ... We're here to add a little more spice to the daily routine of wake up at 4 a.m. and do P.T. 30 mins later.

What the people that wanna be us do is their own business. Look forward to interesting and funny ass servers from myg0t. I personally create maps for fun... Looks like I'll be making some memerable co op missions tho now since the landscape is plenty to work with.

thx BIS for making a 9 year long community that much more diverse

d3dsh33p, you fiend! I knew you were a cheater all the time. What do you do here myg0t lamer?

I play games and only the good ones, and thats why I'm here. myg0t spread happiness, I laugh harder when I'm gaming then good ol' Bill Cosby made the whole country laugh during the 90's.

ArmA fuckin rocks

Also I rarely use hacks since I quit steam games. But when I played css and the other shit games they make I definately cheat, you can't tell me that you're mad that I made that game just a bit crappier for all those idiots who actually enjoy that game... unless your one and in that case you just made yourself out to be a fool with an anti-american agenda with your "republicans are terrorist" comment.

If you got a problem with what I do, go complain on our forums we got a section just for you. Otherwise take your anti-anything thats not in your interest agenda somewhere else.

d3dsh33p and Darkninja, take a +1WL and cool your jets off a bit. This topic is derailing real fast into the IDIOT ZONE - cool it.

Just a note, Twisted had it correct. it isnt really the AI that causes the lag, it is the number of players. Actually players and time.

After about 20 hours of 40 or more connected, the server dsyncs itself into oblivion. The crates get all jacked because it cant count the number of weapons, it takes JIP players 10 minutes or more to connect, and eventually the server will dip down to below 4 Server FPS and crap out. TBH, AI doesnt do a whole lot int he large scheme of things. There are several tournaments out there with scripted missions on dedi server running pretty well.
