Is there realy any need for more than more Space Server?
I know Jumpgate have more than one Space Server in his glory time, 
but with better Hardware and few Players they reduce the european to one
Server.

Other Server Emulator like lineage2 do have 1 Server for Authenticate,
Game and SQL Server and than the login, game and sql Server can be on
more server machines.

What do you think about one Login, Game and sql Server?
Then there can be some processes which can work on the sql or login
server like the economy stuff.

What about the ai stuff? Netdevil to this stuff on the client side or?
Who are able to code some ai stuff? I think this is a very hard work to
do. 

On which machine this will be done? Server? Client?

Much Online games have some problems with lag and the ai because all
stuff will be done on the Server Machine.

I ask Christoph on Saturday about some Projekt Plans like a Player build
economy like the old star wars galaxy or warcraft economy and about some
advanced Skill System but he never answer my mail. :-/

Should open jumpgate be a 100% clone of Jumpgate or a Advanced Clone
with more Features like player economy player skills and more?

I see there many thinks that can be make the life better and more
interesting for miners, traders and "Builders" but i didn´t know what
are your plans.
