kiwiships

Lolno. Yotta made Kiwiships, its not available to anybody but him.

Guys, the problem with making them faster is the lag. Has anyone else experienced a maximum sized Kiwiship flying? Making that go faster would just kill the server.

I was on when somebody was taking some giant ship around for a test drive or something, and it made the server have horrible block lag.

Damn, beat me to it

That was awful imho max should be down to like 800 not 1500

Yea, I remember not long ago I experienced major lag on the server and was constantly disconnected and reconnected. When it stopped, Saera told me that someone tried flying a 900 block kiwiship. I think this is the same incidence that you guys are talking about.

We COULD drop the max size by a lot and then try a slight speed up.

Yotta?

Well... I still would want the option for massive 1500 block kiwiships, as like a flagship for my fleet, but I just don't want the server to lag out when I try to fly it. If Yotta is skilled enough, maybe he could optimize the code to make the kiwiships much less laggy (and, yes that is a challenge). Or he could use the money from the donations to get a server with better hardware that would be able to handle a massive kiwiship, perhaps even multiple massive kiwiships.

Yotta definitely needs to solve this problem before age III, I expect there to be naval battles using many kiwiships that would kill the server given it's current state.

I think is a good idea, generally large kiwiships aren't moved as they go too slow and are just for show, so why don't we leave them there and speed up the little ones.
