  1. Enough Aprils fools ...i hope i didnt forget any pizzas on the site
  2. psst dont tell anyone im an agent of the KSP the Kerbal secret police
  3. Sorry deliverys are handeld by our PDN (Pizza Delivery Network) But you can Give Tips via the Patreon link in the Signature...they are most welcome
  4. youve to download them yourself. But theyre fresh out off the oven. jummy
  5. DeepPizza mining based AutoToppingTM will follow in version 1.2
  6. Important News: We just had a meeting because we recieved a letter stating that the name Spacedock is a registered trademark and we have to change it imidiatly. So we just renamed Spacedock to PizzaDock until we come up with a better name for it.
  7. Status Update: Amongs other Improvements i just added a node in SIngapore for our asian & australian users. The CDN now looks like this:
  8. im a bit lost for words. but here is somethign that might help you: http://color.adobe.com/
  9. the 1.1 prerelase (and the need for modders to be able to upload stuff for 1.1) caused some trouble. "dev" and "prereleases" arent known by the code (yet) so we had to make an quick and dirty fix. (hope that helps for the time beeing)
  10. We just switched downloads to our CDN. please report any problems.
  11. Following up on my last post: i now set up the cdn and we will deploy it as soon as its tested and integrated into the code. We arent in urgent need of servers but improving the infrastructer is always a good idea. (python and php devs are needed more) For people who want to donate servers: We need the following specs at least 100Mbit/s connection ubuntu 14.04 lts or debian prefered 160GB+ disk space (RAID1) root (you can setup a vm or container) 4gb+ RAM fixed ipv4 (+ipv6 if you have) located in a real datacenter (no home servers) usable by us for at least 6 month at least core i7 or xenon (no atom, pentium or celeron based cpus) locations we prefer: south america australia asia east europe Happy easter VITAS P.S. current server locations (more will follow)
  12. Yes there will be. I got a bit distracted from the cdn thing. Mainly because the current setup is laughing about the bandwidth demand. (average of 30-50Mbit/s on its 1Gbit/s line). GenPage donated some cloude nodes and we started setting them up as CDN but didnt finish. If you are good with server stuff youre welcome to setup mirroring. (The current setup uses Kubernets, docker and tinc and geoDNS but lacks some rsync or cluster FS setup) If thats working im happy to integrate more Servers in order to reduce roundtrip times. Please tell me where your server is located (geographicly and datacenter), whats its bandwidth(conenction speed), which OS / distro you are running and if you can setup docker and/or a vm so we can have root acc on it or can deploy containers. You can join us on irc.esper.net #spacedock
  13. Thank you and other for using it. I made many webpages and ive learned that a following arround it is more important than design or functionality. 1/3 but all running on the current ksp version and activly maintained challange: try one mod per day for one year BTW theres stuff that can be done to speed things up but it takes many many man hours so it will be a while. if someone wants to help: we need python AND php (with symfony) devs.
  14. We did quite some work on the code to speed up site loading times but theres only so much you can do to legacy code.
  15. yes. site generation times are mostly related to the code we got from ks. my tools tell me its on average about .85s but inital site loads take much longer for now i want to focus on raw download speeds of files not code issues.
  16. Hi, How are transfer speeds for you guys? (the question also applies to CKAN downloads from ckan1.spacedock.info or spacedock.info) Im asking this because i want to decide if theres a need to deploy the cdn for file downloads or not.
  17. VITAS dislikes that (see thos buttons would have a usecase) p.s. need new keyboarlfdkjei
  18. CKAN does desktop stuff and spacedock does the web stuff. That wont change. keep in mind, that ckan uses the spacedock infrastructure as file source. (theres even a special server for it) all you can ask (the CKAN guys) is to integrate features into the client youre missing from it. they will talk to us if they need something for it. btw one feature i might suggest to them is adding a dmp serverlist to the client that does all the needed stuff for you to join a server...but that req. some work. but lets talk about features you want to see on the website not in a desktop client
  19. Hi may i give my 2 cents too? Disclamer if needed: I know how it feels when you try to build something and people tell you its not worth the effort. My general advice is: prove them wrong. In fact doing it better than the "established" services is a must to gain any footing. BUT i doubt you can compeate with "ads free, no data abuse, no cost to the user" since you need some sort of income to sustain a site like this if you want it to be more than a hobby you sink money into...or you need sponsors (who in turn often want something in return). My suggestion would be: If its a Business project: Analyze the market. Find something that hasnt been done yet and isnt saturated with sites allready. Find some experts to do it with. And lastly find the resources to do it (time, money, infrastructure, ...) If its a hobby: Do something that doesnt exist and you want or get involved into some existing project. I would welcome you as spacedock dev if youre interrested. Your idears could make it better. If still want to do your own thing im happy to learn from you. Spacedock isnt a commercial projects so im not fighting for market shares. Instead if someone else comes along and does a better job i will simply ride into the sunset on a solid booster ....or something like it You find us on irc.esper.net #spacedock Party on! VITAS
  20. im against removing old mod verswions inc ase someone needs them (e.g. for older ksp versions). but im all for a more streamlined support process. would it help if you had some sort of ticket system coupled to a web form that answeres common stuff before sending it? e.g. if you select an older ver of the mod from the dropdown it notifys you that no bugfixes will be made for that version and they should first update to the newest ver before requesting support. we have a ticketsystem for email support running and it might be possible to make this availabel for interrested mod authors. the ticket system is also able to execute custom jobs and has a knowlagebase that can be made public.
  21. Writing this helps. Thank you. I know child labour is forbidden but maybe your kids could play more ksp so the site gets used a lot
