eh, its somewhat of a bugfix, but I already posted it in tutorials, so heres the link... http://www.ms.shannaracorp.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23 What currently happens is the entire map is loaded to get the revision to see if the client has the right version or not, if it does, it loads the map again. What I did was make it load the map, check if it has the right version, if it does, it makes savemap = to the map already loaded, so the map doesn't need to be loaded twice. |

The url do not longer work, not sure if I remember but should it be like this? Code: If GetMapRevision(x) <> y Then
' We do so we dont need the map ' Load the map Call LoadMap(x) Call SendData("needmap" & SEP_CHAR & "no" & SEP_CHAR & END_CHAR) Exit Sub End If The <> instead of =. |

Actualy is = and not <>. If the Revision you have on your map is the same as the one the server has, then you dont need to receive the map and just load it. |

No. The tutorial replaced GetMapRevision It loaded the map into tempMap after modifing loadmap (or you could have created a getMap to return a map it loads then it checks the revisions, and if equal, it sets savemap = to tempmap |

Ok I hate to bring this up again(cause of old date), but I noticed that I of course still had the bug where it ALWAYS requested a new map. Well I made these changes and it seems to work perfectly fine now. I Changed: If FileExist(MAP_PATH & "map" & x & MAP_EXT, True) Then To: If FileExist(MAP_PATH & "map" & x & MAP_EXT, False) = True Then Code: If FileExist(MAP_PATH & "map" & x & MAP_EXT, False) = True Then ' Check to see if the revisions match If GetMapRevision(x) = y Then Call LoadMap(x) Call SendData("needmap" & SEP_CHAR & "no" & SEP_CHAR & END_CHAR) Exit Sub End If End If ' Either the revisions didn't match or we dont have the map, so we need it Call SendData("needmap" & SEP_CHAR & "yes" & SEP_CHAR & END_CHAR) Exit Sub End If I tested it and had it display every time I was on a new map or an old map; had my girlfriend make a simple change and it showed I was on a new map. While walking around on the old maps it displayed I was on an old map. I noticed their was an optimizing tutorial and some other stuff. Do they make this any better? Cause the fix I made actually seemed to work perfectly fine all the time and I noticed that the maps were loading quicker. |
