Coolrune206 Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Mmm actual question time. Do you support "Improve, don't remove" or do you think that certain things aren't worth the time improving and should just be removed altogether? 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/20782-aas-amaa/page/3/#findComment-155935 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am fucking tired of this being thrown around as a buzzphrase on the github to the point where I will actively call people out who throw this out. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/20782-aas-amaa/page/3/#findComment-155936 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I realized that the people that said it usually were never intending to put in the time to improve it. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/20782-aas-amaa/page/3/#findComment-155937 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming if it were possible, it'd be done already, but a lot of older games I play, people have found methods to force them to enable more RAM usage.

There is a registry tweak you can do to allow it to use up to 4GB, but BYOND itself is only capable of addressing to 1.8GB, so the moment you go over that limit, you run into major stability issues and stuff starts to fall apart very quickly . 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/20782-aas-amaa/page/3/#findComment-155960 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froststahr Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Have you considered using winrar to compress the memory itd put the extra CPU cores to good use and make smaller? itd be a good idea i think yeah How optimistic are you about the current state of projects meant to replace byond?

SS14 primarily, opendream I guess too I think they will co-exist, but never fully replace BYOND. Every server already has their foundations on BYOND, their existing code teams, their people with accounts, etc etc. Switching to SS14 for example would invalidate our entire coder team and our maint team as its an entirely new lang. Opendream may get somewhere as it still uses DM, but I see that as like, the replacement for when BYOND kicks the bucket. 1 Link to comment https://www.paradisestation.org/forum/topic/20782-aas-amaa/page/3/#findComment-155980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
