Instances?

Post by Timberwolf »

So I was reading a post earlier viewtopic.php?f=8&t=353


And in this post there was talk of an MMO. Which is a future project for my team. However according to Hirato there's no LOD and only one way to really make a larger world manageable. This is through making smaller maps and combining them. I was going to ask about instances anyway so this sparked me to post.


Can instances be made in Sandbox? And if so, is there a tutorial or explanation somewhere? I saw no easy way to do so in the editing GUI.

There was also talk of login information. Is it possible to make user accounts and link them to a database to be used in Sandbox? If so, how far do we know Sandbox can go with individual characters and "continuous" worlds?


Thanks in advance.

The project is open source so just about anything is possible. When you program it in please let us add it to Sandbox as well :D Take care!
