Gotta make it seem like WD is crowded somehow!

Haha, actually not sure what causes this. My next step will probably be to get NWNX up and running so I can track scripts better, but want to game a bit first.

Not sure on 64-bit vs 32, but it seems to work just fine for me.

I have Neverwinter Nights Diamond from GOG and just requested the multiplayer key on their website. Hope to give it a try soon.

Cool. Looking good for a few bodies ayergo.

Still no multiplayer key yet (was the weekend) so I expect it today or tomorrow. :)

Should those interested sort of semi-plan a team of characters ? :)

*shivers with excitement*

I can play only one of these so choose wisely:
fighter cleric rogue druid paladin mage tank healer dps beggar king male female orc dwarf elf bus-driver cavalier barbarian ranger and/or yuanti genasi halfling horse dog rat bat or giant

I think that was fixed. Server was slow this morning as it was updating. Reboot seems to have brought it back.

Let it be known the elf Mi'Tien and dwarf Brutlyn have found the rats seem to be coming from the southern part of the city near the rat hills! They were rewarded 200 coins for finding this information but nearly lost their lives in the process! Folks should be particularly careful as they go south!

Citizens in a fright to stop the rat scourge started setting fires to trash in the Rat Hills. Fires have now spread to the southern part of the city near the dump. Adventurers with magic capabilities have been urged to help stop the spread of the flames.

OOC:Got NWNX working, should help get some data on scripts and reset things when necessary. Let me know how it goes.

I think we have a culprit for the script weirdness.

Code: Select all

alfa_onareaenter   632403 msec 11156566 calls 
spawn_sample_hb  281661 msec 1297954 calls
Somehow "onareaenter" is being called twice as much as the heartbeat script. I'll dig into it for the next rev. Might be the creatures coming in causing that many, but will see what's up with that.

Found a recursive call to spawn() in the on area enter. That doesn't seem right, should be in heartbeat. Removed the recursion, let me know if things are working better. Module seemed to load a lot faster anyway.
