ok being fairly new to coding I gues Ill post my question here and let you guys do all the work *duck* errr I mean thanks for all help I get

ok Heres my dilema Running Smaug 1.4a Cygwin source and I want to stop the server from disconnecting Immortals I think I have narrowed it down to this bit of code in Comm.c

if ( (!d->character && d->idle > 360) /* 2 mins */
|| ( d->connected != CON_PLAYING && d->idle > 1200) /* 5 mins */
|| d->idle > 28800 ) /* 2 hrs */
{
write_to_descriptor( d->descriptor,
"Idle timeout... disconnecting.\n\r", 0 );
d->outtop = 0;
close_socket( d, TRUE );
continue;
}

how would rewrite that so It doesnt dissconnect Immortals?

if ( (!d->character && d->idle > 360)	/* 2 mins */
|| ( d->connected != CON_PLAYING && d->idle > 1200) /* 5 mins */
|| d->idle > 28800 )	/* 2 hrs */
if (d->character && d->character->level < LEVEL_IMMORTAL)
  { 
  write_to_descriptor( d->descriptor,
           "Idle timeout... disconnecting.\n\r", 0 );
  d->outtop	= 0;
  close_socket( d, TRUE );
  continue;
  }

New line in bold.

Hey, I tried to insert that into the code, and boy... it put a terrible horrible lag on the executable. i couldn't even log in. it would load my character after about a minute and a half then it wouldn't do anything else. any thoughts? and did it happen to the first person who wrote this subject?

i took that line back out and it ran fine

The first time I rebooted with this change it was a lil slower then usual but after that reboots and restarts are back up to there normal speed for me.

Didnt test the timeout yet though but I have a feeling it will work I'll be sure to let ya know sometime tommorow

Whoops! Sorry, didn't notice it was a nested IF. Try this variation ...


if ( ((!d->character && d->idle > 360)	/* 2 mins */
|| ( d->connected != CON_PLAYING && d->idle > 1200) /* 5 mins */
|| d->idle > 28800 )	/* 2 hrs */
/* allow imms to stay on indefinitely */
&& !(d->character && d->character->level >= LEVEL_IMMORTAL)
  )
  { 
  write_to_descriptor( d->descriptor,
           "Idle timeout... disconnecting.\n\r", 0 );
  d->outtop	= 0;
  close_socket( d, TRUE );
  continue;
  }

when putting this in smaugfuss 1.6 you get many many errors, why might it do this?

Nick Gammon Australia Forum Administrator Sun 16 Oct 2005 09:27 PM #7

You sure you did exactly that? There is a bracket on a line on its own. Try pasting here what your code looks like with your change.

well first i tired to just change it and it didn't work so i copy and pasted and didnt work again, donno really... but because its and else if and not just an if have anything to do with it?

If you show us the lines, I'm sure we'd be able to see what's wrong.

Well ok... nevermind i think i fixed it... not sure will seen later tonight, but i forgot to place the extra ( after the if in the first line of it. heh.
