News

17/December/04 - Recommended update. I know I said I would have client side master server support ready by the next update. But this was sort of an unplanned update. The server had a really silly bug in it that was simple to fix and was really anoying to the admin. And I thought I would get two birds with one stone and made the client slightly more stable. Also made it so when the player has no flags left. He is disconnected (temporary of course). Client MS support is under progress and will hopfuly be done shortly. Thanks.

16/December/04 - Compolsery update. Slight networking optimisation. Also the server fully supports the master servers interface and the master server is complete. How ever the master server is not up and running as i do not have a box set up for it yet. Whens its up there will be a small update to configure the IP. The next update will most likley be client side compatability with the server.

15/December/04 - Major update. Both client and server ported to SDL (and there for theoreticly cross-platform). Server made public. Major bugs and minor bug fixes. More stability. Look at for a major speed update, master server and a prediction (will notacible reduce lag). Server update rate is at 20sps and the ping rate is 2 seconds

2/December/04 - First release...

Game

The game is a small one I have been working on. If you have downloaded it and played it you were probably like "big deal. Its ugly, laggy and boring". Chicken run was more of a PoC for the network code. Although the network code is incomplete (fine on lan how ever it is perpously laggy on the internet).
Any way the point of the game is to get as many chicken flags as possible in the time supplied. How ever currently the game just goes on for ever heh.
Master server comming soon.
If it doesn't connect go to the client.ncf and change the ip address to the one above (the current IP). Make sure the length is ok
