When is the Oceanic ICE server being purchased?
-
I swear I saw the same thing on the Discord...
What would be involved? Something that could be financially supported by donations from the Oceanic community?
-
Not to sure, maybe somebody that's sets it up. @Brutus5000 / @Geosearchef probably would need to answer this.

Fellas if mirddes told you it was coming you should A: not believe a word of it and B: know better to not believe a word of it

It wasn't him. Not really a helpful comment though...

ICE server?
-
I guess the FaF modders don't bother with the technical support forums anymore haha.
-
We don't give estimation dates on anything.
-
Please correct me if I am wrong @Brutus5000 but I'd say the only thing that would help would be find somebody that is pretty skilled and does it
-
We probably lack the right guy to do it. It would need somebody that is able to:
- Read into existing python Lobby Server code and Java ICE adapter code to potentially debug stuff
- Be able to set up a server and configure it
- Knows at least basics about networking and reads a little about ICE protocol
- Has a lot of patience in asking community members in how stuff works and in requesting setting changes on the main server

v1.2.0-RC3 adds a new ICE Adapter version, which connects to the closest TURN Server. Which means Australians get connected to an australian Server and most others stay on the German one. Please test:

This is great news. Looks like the times of AUS being cut off from the rest of the FAF community are coming to a close!
Edit: Is there a way we can get a setting to force what turn server we are using? I'm up in SK and would benefit greatly from using the AUS turn server instead of the german one.
-
No. The ice-adapter will automatically choose a server for you based on your latency.
-
BTW, I run the Aussie TURN server, and it's up.
