    the current server is about as good as its gonna get with total freeware, the server would have to be heaps stronger to handle multiplayer TPT...

    imagine running TPT on an Ipod 3G... then multiply the lagginess of that by 100... that is the lag you will get with the current server.

    A feature to let friends play together would be hard and take a long time to make, and this is a free game, nobody's getting paid to do it. Also, I think TPTPP will be on the same server, right now it works perfectly with the current server, but I'm not completely sure. The current server is not powerful enough to allow this, so it will probably never happen.

    If you want to talk with people that would be your friends, create a conversation or a group, that's what those are for. There is no real reason to create a friends tab, what kind of uses would it have?

    If not a friends tab, then possibly a way to show if someone is online?

    Maybe just a dot beside somebody's name on a post, green = online red = offline
    I don't know if it would be hard or not seeming how i know nothing about this kind of stuff, but it doesnt sound hard...
    @Plasmoid (View Post)
    Easy huh? Can you do this for me on a website you created, now?

    I think that would be a good idea too, it shouldn't be that hard. If they are logged in and have visited the website within the last hour (because most people are always logged in), that means they're online, so a dot or something like AngrySpam said. Maybe also let people change it themselves too, if they know they're going offline or don't want people to know they're online.
