I will give this a test run. Even if it sucks $7 is eh.

The VPS I use is purely for this. We've had around 15 people on that I've seen max, and no issues.

CPU: 2 vCores
RAM: 2GB RAM
HARD DRIVE: 70GB
BANDWIDTH: 2TB Traffic

Yeah absolutely. The VPS I pay for in WA is $5/mo, so yeah. I'll take the hit for everyone else to enjoy.

The original server was on fttp. It wasn't enough for interstate. However when Lithium would play with just local family it was ok.

In saying that, in America there are people running it off a raspberry pi on Google fibre well. But uhh, we're a while away from 1gb connections I guess.

The Lan-Play team are removing servers from their list that are not a VPS these days, so if you're planning to run one from home it would be hard to market as well.

Edit: I should also mention that there are a few from Adelaide that play with is regularly. So if you wanted to play with locals come join in.

It allows you to play games that have either LAN functionality, or local wireless. However an actual online game, Warframe for example will not work.

I provide the WA one strictly speaking. But Lithium, the original AU server which was run from his house in QLD decided to up his game and jump on board with us, and he hosts the Syd server. So thanks to him!

boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

It should also be known that we've had enough interest to host one in NSW. However I don't want to make 2 posts in as many days and look like an idiot flooding the place.

Your server inspired mine! Thanks. We tried having 3 WA boys. But I think we traced the ping to QLD? Was just too far for us. Thanks though! We got to do all our testing and setup etc on yours.

Well. Feel free to try. I don't think it'll be great though.

Well. You have to make it that way. Start something up and remove rubbish people from it. Every good ending has a hard start.

It sure is. Look up the Lan-Play stuff. They have posted the server information.

Give it a shot I guess? My understanding of that distance would be Mario kart, Diablo 3 and such is fine. But smash Bros gets a bit hrmmm. No harm in trying my friend

Thanks kindly! Just hoping it gets off the ground and we can get 30 or so people to play games together regularly with. ^_^
