I know, I have it on my list, but there are a lot more pressing issues at the moment and we don't have the money/time to devote to issues like this. Right now it's just amazing the website and game server are running. If we had any expendable revenue, we would fix these issues, but as most members are very much aware, we run month to month on donations and quite often Waffle has to foot the bill for our servers. This means that any downtime to fix an issue will almost guarantee that we won't break even that month.
I guess while I'm here I'll add a comment on a few things we're working on.
HRP2 has been sidelined in order to devote our available resources to getting CGRP to a presentable form. With the lack of funding our options to gain interest from other parties (read: developers), is slim. We have to work with our current set of staff, who generously work on a promise, which means a slow pace of development.
In regard to our current infrastructure issues, we had an attack on our back end server which hosted our centralized management, VPN, and Database. This was a major blow to the network and we are now running at a far limited capacity. To resolve these issues we would need at least 30 hours of downtime, and like I stated before, that would mean us not being able to make our quota for the month. However, until these repairs are made, we are stuck in a position where we can't continue development on many projects due to our limited flexibility.
All the problems stem from how HRP's player base is shrinking. We understand the instabilities with the server, however our primary goal at the moment is trying to gain interest in our future projects.
Lastly, I'll plug in here that if you're interested in aiding in any way, we appreciate donations of any kind. If you don't want credits and wish to donate other amounts, please contact the owner and he will work something out with you.
If you are a person who could assist with development, we are looking for Lua developers who could assist with either fixing existing problems with HRP or development on CGRP. If you're interested, please send me a message either on our forums or on Steam.
Thanks
