Title: Lix Multiplayer Sun, April 3rd, 17:00 UTC
Post by: Simon on March 28, 2022, 06:11:46 AM

Hi,

let's test and play more! April 3rd, starting 17:00 UTC, let's play more Lix. Any 0.9.x will do, 0.9.42 is the newest, but they're all good.

I'll run an experimental server again as the central server.

Dullstar and I will connect with debugging builds. Either the session will go fine without problems whatsoever, or we get a chance to catch the sporadic March 27 client-side crash (https://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?topic=5965.msg95871#msg95871).

(Outside these sessions where I can closely watch, I'll run the ancient 0.9.20 server as the central server. That 0.9.20 server hasn't made 0.9.x clients crash in many years; it should also be practically identical to a server built from the 0.9.42 codebase.)

Sure! New maps always get priority.

Thank you for playing everybody, that was a nice session, despite the crashes! :lix-laugh:

If I have time, I'll do some changes to my new maps and I'll send them to Simon.

Sorry I missed this, I assumed there wasn't a session last night, because I didn't notice this topic.

I'm interested in setting up a session on Sunday 17th (Easter Sunday) or Sunday 24th April though. I have some time off that week. If it's on 24th, I could potentially make some more new maps for the session.

Lana: Thanks for joining and building maps! Sorry for the crash in 0.9.43. Dullstar and I found that crash on sending chat messages, and I've released 0.9.44 that fixes that crash. Looking forward to the next session!

Flopsy: I can't play on Easter Sunday, but I'll certainly join on the 24th; I'll reply there (https://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?topic=5977.0).
