[Arianne-devel] Server Question

[<pet...@ju...>]

   I may be wrong in asking this question since I'm stuck with the
0.3.9.2 source files, and it may not be a valid question anymore. But I
have not been able to uncover any info regarding it in the design
documents, and thought I would mention it.
   I was browsing the HandlePlayers.cpp file, and a two sections of code
caught my
attention, both concerning notifying all other players when someone joins
or leaves the server.
   Should ALL other players be alerted to one's joining or leaving the
server? Maybe a buddylist could be devised; player's could add/remove
other players to their own list, and would only be notified of events
regarding these selected players.  If there are a thousand people on a
server at one time, people are bound to be coming and going rather
frequently, which in turn could be annoying when you are trying to chat
with someone. Maybe it wouldn't be a problem. Just a consideration.
