Fixed the New York mirror

Wouldn't it be a good to have more then 3 people to help push updates, cause then if people go MIA *cough*path*cough*pyro*cough* we wouldn't have to wait on you and joe for the updates.

And the mining lasers and wands are logged when they get taken, I hope?

 

All the mods in the pack have been up to date for quite some time, but I can't push client updates so we have to wait on sk for that. It was nice having others to help for that short time though...

 

Yeah, the only reason i mention it. Is because there are quite a few mods that are a bit behind on the latest versions, like enderchests, gravisuite, thaumicbees ect ect (as well as all the ones tonius suggested to be updated). I would be happy to help, since i've got a lot of free time, but yeah, it might be a good diea to wait for pyro and path. ButYeah, it was nice to be able to annoy someone else about updating the mods other then sk and you joe, for once

 

Any plans on adding Bibliocraft, SK?

 

Hey sk89q, Is there anyway you can make a mirror for people in australia (alice.sk89q.com gives me a x as a ping speed and ny.alice.sk89q.com give me only 1 bar) so its really annoying because i can only join at certain times with the such slow speed D:

 

It costs money to keep all of these services running, ya know.... So if you want to keep this server free to play on, might want to just try to live with the problems you are having. Besides, a mirror for people in OZ won't really help because there is really only a few in/out pipes for internet there, so you might just be stuck with the same service speeds anyways. (I would only expect improvements in ping of about 15%)

 

:I

 

Do you have any idea how much it is to put up a mirror? Around $3 which is prolly cheaper in Austrialia. I *might* actually setup a few mirrors in a few days

 

I'm in Australia too, and get 350ms to normally, and 250ms to the NY mirror. The mirror only helps because it's ping to the real Alice server is less than the 100ms difference (I estimate based on previous information 70-80ms) due to your ISP's routing choices. As hsun324 stated

In actual fact, there is only one 'pipe' out of Australia at the moment - The Southern Cross Cable - which connects Australia with the United States at about the point labelled "You" in sk's diagram - hence the reason for the NY mirror's improvement;

 

Spoiler

To be honest, It could quite possibly be the fact that im using Optus 4G
And those DDoS attacks that keep making it to the news :/

 

As fast as 4G is, jitter makes gaming impossible. Use a fixed-line connection before complaining

 

Im getting one some time half way through the year I havent had one since 4-5 years ago, because Telstra could not be stuffed upgrading our local wires, Oh well, NBN has taken place near me so its gonna be worth it (i hope :/)

 

Like your profile picture btw

 

I feel your pain. Thanks to Telstra, my fixed line connection gets congested a lot of the time. No matter how much I complain they aren't willing to do anything. Glad the NBN's near you. Shame I won't get it for another 8 years.

 

Why don't you move? D:

 

That isn't really an option for me. Will be boarding though once I head to Uni (will likely have the NBN or $20/month unlimited ADSL2+).

 

Im sad now, Did some research on NBN, Its actually in the neighbourhood next to my neighbourhood, Meaning I dont have affect of it for a few years, oh well, Internet may be faster :/
