I have to work in Windows because I don't own the computer I'm using. One reason why I work in BYOND is the portability. PS: Me want Debian (Woody) box with 2.4.x kernal. *grunt* |

I have to work in Windows because I don't own the computer I'm using. One reason why I work in BYOND is the portability. The server aspect of BYOND is totally portable...but at this point the game playing part isn't really. I know Dantom would like to get it there, but to be honest I hope they don't spend time on that. BYOND needs players to survive...96% of the players are on Windows, 4% are on Mac, and something like 0.01% are on Linux etc. And the real Linux gamers have Windows boxes for playing games anyway. For a system that needs to get some money flowing, what is the possible justification for spending limited time/resources on supporting players for the least significant platform, for players who almost certainly have Windows anyway? Again this is separate from BYOND as a server...supporting serving BYOND on Linux/Unix is very important. |
P.S. The calling is simple, and I bet the internet setup is easy too. Good luck Sariat.
