KSP Multi-Player War Server

[unwisemonk]

I wondering if anybody would be interested in having a multi-player server with wargames and possibly teams. We would have to set up times for everyone to play together and of course it would need to be stock. If anyone is interested leave a message in the comments.

The mod required for this server is located here http://sesau.ca/ksp/KMP.html

If enough people are interested in this idea I will start a server up!

[unwisemonk]

I may or may not have fast enough internet to run this if we did start it. So I would need someone with a good connection to run the server if anybody was interested.

KSP has multiplayer now?

Also for the record and my completely personal opinion I loathe the idea of militarising KSP.

It's one of the few games where you don't have to resort to violent acts to progress, it's purely exploration for explorations sake.

Don't get me wrong I like shooting NPC's in the face as much as the next guy, but it's nice to have a game where you lose if things die.

There is a plugin, KMP I think is what is called.

Kinda,It's very buggy.The link is in the OP.

This is a most profound development. I believe we're seeing the start of something new here that may fall into legend.

I'm very interested in this idea!

Sadly, i cant host a server for you

[Joel Dryden]

Depending on what's required I'd be more than happy to try, what needs to be done to host? (Sorry Just not completely with it at the moment)

[unwisemonk]

All you really have to do is download the client for the server. Then after you run it you get your own server IP and other players can connect with the IP.

Well KMP and lazor systems sunbeam and missile = scientifically accurate space combat simulator

[trbinsc]

This sounds pretty interesting. I'd love to be able to do this, and I'd be willing to host if it would be faster than unwisemonk hosting it.

The multiplayer mod is not compatible with any other mods.

i would like to, and i can host, not 24/7, and via hamachi. but i have ok internet

[Tobbzzzz]

As i cant check the link for some reason, probably the Kraken sabotaging my internet connection...

Anyway, what mod is used for the multiplayer?

[InfiniteDice]

The multiplayer mod is not compatible with any other mods.

If you read the KMP thread closely you'll see that there is a way to toggle the mod 'exclusion' variable. All users would then be required to have the exact same parts/mods installed.

What I suspect will be a problem is that it's very likely that objects which are not 'player' vessels will not be tracked by the server.

This likely means anything that's not a ramming match would likely be impossible at the moment, if I'm wrong let me know.

KMP unfortunately is very buggy at the moment, i suggest you play a different game instead of KSP war, KSP is not meant to be a violent game.

Hamatchi is not a very safe program hamatchi is meant for a group of trusted friends if for example some random people on the forum your basically giving them access to your network learn how to map ports

And yes i agree with Xeta

I would love to take part in this if someone starts a server, although I would prefer if no weapons mods (except maybe dyj) where used.

I have a server up that has romfarer systems but the lazers are still buggy.. if you're interested email me at [email protected]

In order for it to work better, I've considered updating my old romfarer systems to newer ones to see if that quits the bugs.. we'll see today.. as of right now, you can fly anything standard with addition to romfarer weapons and fire missiles, but the systems are blind and won't target. If you try to work with the lazers much it just crashes and resyncs

DOn't use romfarer, it will just make destroying things to easy. It would be more fun to have to make your own torpedoes.

Hey is anybody still interested in this thread? With the new tool http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/kmpmodbuilder/ we could easily incorporate mods into the server. I myself was thinking of doing a realism server along with the war while perhaps incorporating FAR, DRE, MFS, (possibly remotetech), realistic parachutes, and perhaps KAS and or extraplanetary launchpads? Thoughts anyone?
