Task Information: Test Port

Details: Grand scale project.

The main focus is new network code, which should be much faster. Other code improvements will come with it. Most of these changes are purely code-related; the fundamental infrastructure is being changed.

However, the players will probably notice improvements in performance, notably in the speed of receiving text from the MUD.

Completion Notes

It seems to be almost completely stable now. There is still an issue to address in accounts timing out, but it does not cause the MUD to crash.

Progress Reports

Jul 10 2003
The code is done, and it is up and running on cs1.betterbox.net port 5432.

The progress in speed is very visible, especially when receiving large amounts of text (such as when typing hlist.)

Many bugs have been fixed, but some are cropping up from time to time. I will add further reports as I find problems. :)
Jul 16 2003
The test port is now the main MUD version.

It seems to be almost entirely bug-free, although there are still a few issues that I can't quite explain.

As usual, please report all anomalies to me. :)
