Persistent server question...

Thu Mar 27, 2003 10:20 am by Barakmar

Just wondering...

If I'm going to be playing LAN games with Freelancer, yet I don't have the resources to run a dedicated server all the time, will there be a problem with my character if I'm continually closing down the server at the end of the day? Will it save my character status for future play or will I lose it forever?

Thanks for your help.

Yes, that's no problem - the current state of each 'account' is saved on disk on the server, so you don't have to run it 24/7!

In fact, you'll probably find you'll need to stop and restart it again from time to time anyway.

I have to do that every couple of days to re-register it in the global list - though that's not necessary if you only want to connect via LAN.
