Hey Guys!

So I know that we already have tons of threads explaining how to make servers, but I've been asked a few times how to make the servers last longer (Minimize refreshes and prevent players from turning into 0s)

SO! SOME TOTALLY "EXPERT" TIPS FROM TWILI~ ON HOW TO MAKE YOUR SERVERS LAST LONGER!

DON'T USE HIDDEN RIDGE AS YOUR SERVER NAME!
Unlike most on my list, I really can't explain this one. Servers with this name seem to die the fastest (I've made a server and immediately gotten the 0 glitch before). There are so many other cool names that no one ever uses (scroll down the server name list), and I find the names towards the bottom to work best!

DO NOT RUN THE SERVER IN A NEW TAB!
This is one of those things that gets passed around as a rumor. Some say it helps, some say it doesn't matter. Truth being, software that is made with Construct 2 doesn't fully operate if it is an inactive tab, even if it isn't set to auto-pause when the "focus" is lost (tab switch). So if you're running into server problems, use a new window, not a new tab!

DO NOT MAKE A SERVER FOR THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF PLAYERS POSSIBLE!
This might have been fixed in the update, as the largest server you can make now is 50 instead of 100, but I found that servers that have 20 or 30 spots worked better than the bigger ones with 50 (was 100) spots.

TRY USING CHROME/FIREFOX!
If you run the game in Firefox but also have Chrome (or vice versa!), try opening the server up in Chrome (Firefox), while playing the game in Firefox (Chrome) (What I usually do). This way, the two processes (client and server) run independently from one another. I do this a lot, and find that I have way less problems when I do this.

Hope that these tips can help someone who is having problems! ~

Nice to know! Servers with 30 people are probably the best option.

Ask one of the admins to move it. It's helpful information that shouldn't get covered up and lost in the forum

I use a server and activate the two members then log in twice so I can collect ingredients with no distractions.
