Maximum number of players ever?

[Igiss]

Today evening the number of players was 12. Unfortunately server had a notable lag. But... still I don't think we ever had so many in one time.

I've not seen 12 for a while, that's good to hear. The most I've ever seen is 16.

While I'm here, gotta say Igiss that I really like the look of the 4.76 changes, the pilot drops was a really nice surprise. Not looked at the power usage much yet though, from a battleship point of view it doesn't seem to change things a great deal. I'm in between holidays at the moment so I won't be around much until mid-Sept, but will see you all then!

12 people on, and it had _lag_ ... what were they running it on, a 386?? xD

So at this time my kudos go to Mijkp, for providing a kick-arse server which can accommodate 100+ players with ease.

This a gravedig I can accept. It's good to see how far we've come. Equally good to see how much effort has been put in by the entire admin team, past and present, to make this the most popular FL server to date.

I wasn't saying it was a bad thing Del...

Kudos to Majkp as well.. Nice work on his part.

Major gravedig indeed.. I was there for those 12! Twas amazing indeed.. It was odd to be in the same system as another person, unless the two (+) of you arranged it. I think we also had a thread about 17 people on..
