ISP's don't bother blocking in NZ, the lines are horrendously overloaded that no one can manage to get decent speeds to rack up any significant usage. :?

Um... if the game server crashes, will this new chat client thingy also not work? What i mean is, currently when the server goes down we all run to the forums to talk to each other. With this client can we all run to the chat thingy instead?


At first it won't be able to connect if the server is down, as it connects to the same server as the game. However, once we separate out the chat server, you should be able to connect to it just fine while the gameserver is down. At least that is our hope in the long run.


Side Note: Let's not hijack this thread with a discussion of ISP's and blocking :)

I'm thinking we won't have any kind of AFK kickoff on the external chat client.

after you get it working and start adding features can you look into making it so people can make chat channels so that unlike squad and team they can be grouped while off doing their own thing... just wondering

I could give that a shot but that will more likely come when i rewrite the chat server to be separate, as since this client is connecting to the regular server it has the same limitations as the regular client.

Albeit not the most aesthetically pleasing font/color choices but you get the idea. pip8786 makes all that customizable. We are still debugging some issues with the chat client. But it might be released by the end of the month.

What galaxy is your external chat client located in that it receives "Ship A was killed by Ship B" messages?

Just keeps looking better and better. Can't wait to use it. =3

I'm assuming the tabs at the top are customizeable to allow you to set different channels to different tabs?
