Hello, I am gravypod. I own the ElwynEternity server and I wanted to share/trade ideas with other server owners. I am hoping more people pitch in. This is what you need to do:
I'll go first. After hosting a starmade server for a few days, I realized something..... starmade server is (far, and I mean FAR) from stable. It crashes randomly, stops working for no reason, and sometimes just wont let people connect. Due to this I have had to do a few small projects to improve stability.
[*]A start script that starts the server in a while-true loop
- Come up with a good fix/idea/tool to help make running a Starmade server easy
- Create it
- Share the idea with other server owners.
- look at what other people are doing and implement it yourself!
