Classic Graal for iPhone

[Rufus]

Wait, why has everyone got the same colored name?

I'm assuming AP isn't implemented.

I'd really, really like an iPhone Testbed.

I wouldn't mind monitoring another Testbed Server.

It's more than possible to have Graal Classic forward people to Testbed so it doesn't require another server.

The only issue is that weapon scripts remain between servers (or at least from Classic to any other server), so that's a security issue at the moment.

Surely only the clientside bytecode, though, right? And what's stopping you from removing them anyway?

And what are the current business plans as far as me hosting my own playerworld?

Seems like it, and we could remove them but this is probably an idea/feature that needs to be run by Stefan first.

It'll probably just end up becoming a server option, iphoneenabled=true or something.

Developers don't really have to change their ways at all just:

- Limit yourself to a screen resolution of 480 by 320
- Make things more mouse driven
- Use if (player.platform == "iphone") where necessary.

Pretty sure iPhone doesn't use anything like mouse controls. Can't the iPhone register multiple touches(more than one mouse)? I have no idea how Graal handles that.

Also, it's been said before but you need to rely heavily on the serverside, so you don't bog down the CPU with clientside loops and processes.

It would be very possible to add an iPhone Testbed with no security-issues, right now it's only enabled for certain iPhones though to be allowed to navigate to other servers.

Not really sure how it should be added (like we can't just give everyone access to testbed on iPhone), would probably need some sort of actual plan to do a server and a dev team because we can't just let everyone go to other servers because the other servers aren't optimized enough for the iPhone and could make the game look bad.

Weapons only stay with the client that are added on classic iphone, same for login servers on Graal. It's basically the first server you log into, you keep the weapons you get there.

This game is evil.

I went to bed at 10:30 PM two nights ago so I could wake up and be alert for a track meet at 6:00 AM. I turned on my iPhone and decided to have a quick PKing spree.

...

The PKing spree turned into a sparring spree and turned into a social hour with some people in game. I was lying in bed, awake, playing this God forsaken game, until 3:00 AM..

Running at the meet on 3 hours of sleep and a God awful headache, no doubt from staring at the screen, I screw over the entire 4 by 8 relay team and run a 2:32, then I screw over myself over in the 800 and run a 2:30.

Later that day, right after the meet ends, I'm sitting on a rail talking to some people. They leave, only thing left for me to do is leave. I take out my iPhone to call in a ride, battery's dead. Had to walk home in 10 degree weather in a track sweats, still cold as ****.

Damn you. Damn you, Graal. Why must you be so fun and addicting?
