What better way to build a FAQ than to have questions that are actually =
"frequently asked", right?
Well, as everyone has probably guessed by now, I'm not exactly an =
above-average programmer... so I'm going to ask some very basic =
questions that will probably get asked quite a bit by others of my =
limited experience and expertise.
1) Now that I have NeL, the Client, and Services packages all compiled, =
what do I do with it to actually start building MY world? Do I HAVE to =
edit the code and recompile? Or is this package meant to handle all =
game-specific stuff in that /data directory, independant from the core =
components?
2) What are the limitations on world size, max number of connections, =
etc, etc? I understand there are obvious hardware restrictions that you =
can't really say anything about... but I'm talking about software =
restrictions (for example, will I run into problems with say, a bank =
account in my game going over 64k in size due to an overflow? Will I =
have issues with my map being too big for the services to handle in =
terms of latteral area?)
That's it for now...=20
