Global chat -> all servers

Postby tangar » Wed 19 Sep 2018, 21:53

I saw some ideas at forum considering merging servers; as it's technically hard to merge servers phisycally, it would be fun at least to have shared global chat for servers; making chat 'bridge' shouldn't be too hard technically but would give more interaction between players :D

It's not more easy than merge servers ;)

It's 100 times easier :D Cause for merging servers you have to operate with DBs and it could mess with players housing & etc; and for chat relay you don't need interact with DBs at all.

There are loads of cooked up bridges around; for example, recently I made bridge between IRC and Discord and there are a lot of open source solutions for this, like:
https://github.com/Headline/Discord-IRC-Relay or https://github.com/reactiflux/discord-irc

I believe creating bridge chat relay between game servers could be also pretty manageable, especially for such professional team like Virtys ;)

For the moment we can't. We have no other answer.
If it changes in the future you will see it ;)

(don't forget that each game is coded in a unique way... and "easy things" for a game isn't easy for another game).
