Can i hold 50 slots with ze enabled?

[gamemann]

Hello everyone. I didn't rent a vps server. But my friend(i am leader with him on my group) did... So i basically control alot of the server. But we been getting alot of traffic lately. Just now it got to 27/50. Now zombie escape is on my server so that takes up more resources. I got a single core vps server. I don't have access to the machine but i do have ftp to it. So does anyone know if i could possibly handle 50 players at once on this machine with zombie escape?
Please answer...
Thanks,
Gamemann

I'm not familiar with ZE myself, and I don't know the hardware that you're on, so I can't say, but you can certainly try it. Going to a 2-core would give you a little more power, if it doesn't perform as you'd like, but depending on how the game works (how well it supports threading), it might not make a significant difference.

Well it would be nice if i knew the processor it's self. Like if it's a xeon or what's the ghz. It's linux for sure though....

If you or your buddy open a support request we can give you the GHz of your CPU.

You can see the processor through your OS. In Windows, it's under the system properties; in Linux, it's in /proc/cpuinfo.

k thanks. I will ask him if he can do that
In the vps screen where you order it it says the machine can handle 1-3 servers or an intense website. When it says 1-3 servers does it mean big servers or small servers?

Those numbers are really just estimates and depend heavily on the server,slots,plugins..etc. However I would expect that number to relate to one big server or two-three small servers, such as a scrim server.

The pop-up help when you hover over "?" says this:

If you plan to run game servers, expect near the low end of this range for large, busy servers, and near the upper end of this range for small or less-popular servers.

This is an estimate only. Keep in mind that you can always upgrade or downgrade the package after you order, should you need more or less power.

[gamemann]

okay one last question. If i was to upgrade to a higher package from single core to two core. Would it be different ip's or same ip's?

[kraze]

You would keep your IP's as long as you do not move locations.

[gamemann]

k that's good
We won't change locations so that's good.
Anyway server reached 31/50 right now, pretty good fps, but at the beginning it goes to 3 fps but that's normal, just for 0.1 seconds XD
As long as it doesn't seriously lag i'm okay. If it lags at the beginning with 50/50 that's normal...
Thanks,

[gamemann]

got to 40/50...
Um what does buffer overflow mean....

[TimeX]

I'm not familiar with that game enough to know what that message may mean, but it generally refers to some sort of choke due to the server being bogged down or a connection issue in some cases. Sorry if that is vague, but as I said, I am not familiar with that game.

[gamemann]

Okay, i am going to upgrade the machine from single core to 2-3 core. Do you know if that will make the ghz go up a bit? If it did that would be great.... Since upgrading just core amount probably won't make a big different EVEN though there is total of 3 servers on the machine but 2 of them are empty and 1 of them are active....

[Edge100x]

It has a chance of changing your clock speed, up or down. During the upgrade process, the system will tell you whether your server will be moved to a new machine; if it's not moved to a new machine, your core clock speed will be the same.

If you contact us directly, we can take a look to see if a machine with faster cores is available at your location.
