Witcher gates on main

[Brian-Limmon]

Name: Brian Limmond

RP Rank: SPC

Suggestion: Add witcher gates to the main server

Implementation: Now that they have been changed on the event server to not allow props to go through them, a lot of the potential lag is no longer an issue and they are much more viable to be used on main for events, they would make for a much smoother process when it comes to things like boardable ships that have interiors separate from their exteriors, so players can just walk through the portal to them without having to each be TPed individually.

+1 I think certain events could really imrpove with witcher gates, such as event where there is a portal, instead of an admin needing to Tp they can just walk through this

They used to be on main. I imagine they were taken off for a reason but if they can be brought back with no issues then +1

90% sure it got removed because someone shoved a prop into it and killed people/crashed the server with it so it was then banned/removed

These where removed from main due to the fact that they could be used to fairly easily crash the server. Since we have the mindset that we want to make the main server as stable as possible and leave other more risky/lag inducing things to event server(see media players) i think it would be best to keep these off main to remove the potential crashing that could come from them.

-1 I Agree wtih Conrad

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but the reason they would crash the server was because props would go through them. As Brian Limmond stated the props no longer go through them because he made a previous suggestion to have that removed. So wouldn't this no longer be an issue?

I edited them to stop allowing props and suchs to go thru them however witcher gates are still bad for preformance, I would agree with conrad there is a reason a lot of laggy stuff is in the event server because that server is just solely to throw events. Main is for events and eveything else like trainings etc...

Fhat -1

So do they have potential to crash the server or bring performance way down significantly or do they just have a general negative contribution to overall performance like basically everything else you can spawn on the server?

They are just heavy on the client because of all the particle effects and when you have 80+ players they start creating quite a bit of lag.

As Maxwell said, they lag the fuck out of the server and we have plenty of things to move people around on the server atm.

I do remember this being able to very easily crash the server with overuse like Conrad said. However, if this DOESNT crash the server easily anymore or we can limit the amount of portals that can be made by 1 person (say only 2 linked portals) this would be slightly more useful.
