My router died last night, and with it the gal. I've got a temporary connection back up but it'll be offline again at some point today when I replace the router (and then online permanently, I hope).

Sorry for the inconwenience, etc :]

When my router failed much the same thought went through mine (again). And the few hours of total silence I enjoyed while the (very noisy) galserver was switched off only encouraged more of the same thinking...

...but for some reason I relented. I have a new router. Normal service is resumed.

like i said in the other topic. i'll host it if you don't want to. although i don't know how much my ip changing whenever the router or modem reboots would effect it

The gal server is noisy?

I, for one, welcome our new zaroba overlords.

You can't host it. Having a dynamic IP is the first reason - the galaxy's IP address is hard coded into the client. Second reason is, the gal runs in debug mode which means you need a full development environment, and the source code. And mit doesn't give out the source code.

Otherwise a fine idea :]

gal runs in debug too?
doesn't seem like it has a fraction of the problems that the chat server has

Post by **Fooli** » Fri Oct 17, 2008 4:20 pm

The chat server is actually quite reliable. It's magicfinger's network setup that isn't :]
