Innovations abound!

New and exclusive to Icon Ultima:
  • Host console! Spawn vehicles and money!
  • A moderation minimap! See the entire map on screen and teleport by clicking on the minimap!
  • Modify start! Using any building object provided (or any one of your own, as always) hosts are able to build their own start areas, complete with spots that only belong to one person, and relocating the spawn tile! You can also build noobwall and platform tiles!
  • Create sets of overlays and underlays and swap entire groups of them at once!
  • Configuration file! It takes care of common problems like designating who is host when the game fails to do so automatically, as well as delegating goodies like xray specs and click building!
  • Dynamically resize the map! Hosts can change the map size up to a maximum of 1000x1000x10, no reboot required!
  • Assign your own moderation! Each server has its own set of moderators, enforcers, and operators that the host assigns!
  • Object copy/paste! Dramatically speeds up building when you can simply copy an object already on the map!
  • Hosts are the admins! Hosts receive the full gamut of administration verbs and have complete control of the server!


These new features are in addition to Icon Ultima's trademark innovations of the past:
  • Built in namefader that allows use of as many colors as you feel like typing out!
  • Controllable pets that you can command to stay, wander and follow!
  • No build option to prevent anyone else from building over your stuff!
  • Bump delete to get rid of dense building objects just by running into them!
  • Mouse control! CTRL+drag to delete objects! Shift+drag to move them!
  • Much more!

As far as the shell is concerned, I'm not certain what's happening to people who claim to experience latency, since it's constrained to a group that's very small in number while the remainder of the player base never experiences this problem.

The very few people still on a dialup connection would be my first guess. Not realising there's a 10FPS limit would be my second.

You do realise the game is in record numbers right? 50 - 70 players was a once every six months kinda deal back in days of old. Now it's a daily occurrence.

Your statement couldn't be more incorrect.

I'm gonna take this opportunity to say that people who left just because they can't host left simply because they can't easily get a position of power anymore.

Perhaps you should release a host version that doesn't contain a form of host recommendatory system. Leave them with the controls DreamDaemon gives them and leave it at that. At least they can't leave under the fake pretence of not being able to host any more.

Im a old old player and well the ability to host a server was a fun reason to play the game , if you dont like one server you could always go to a next one. now that thats gone were stuck with one server , ive recently played it and i dont like it.so the host and power or w/e? it was better that way.

Unless you have another key, a two year old player isn't exactly what we consider "old old". You have to be around for six, seven or more years for that one.

As for the current server, what exactly do you not like about it?

FIX ICON ULTIMA TO BE RAN IN DREAM DAEMON AND STILL HAVE HOST TAB.
DREAM SEEKER USES UP UNNECESSARY COMPUTER RESOURCES WHEN YOURE NOT PLAYING AND DREAM DAEMON DOESNT AND JUST USES UP WHAT YOU NEED TO HOST.
LIKE CHAO CHATTERZ.
THE WAY IT SHOULD BE.

What the hell are you on about?

The released version of the hose files currently out there is like, two years out of date now. That'd be why there are issues with host files and unnecessary resource usage.

Chao Chatters has some of the worst code I've ever seen. Less then that of your average Zeta rip. Comparing it to anything on BYOND is just an insult to the comparison.

Stop typing in all capitals. It does nothing but annoy everyone.

You're welcome.

And when I got back, my Reprimand status was updated, no reason at all?

Fixed.

For the record, you were accused of using an RSC Extractor to steal user icons. See that it doesn't happen again.
