Ask yourself this before you start trying to make a server.

Can I speak English rather well and fluently?
- Most programming is done in English and most IDE's use English words such as "private", "public", "static", "void", "int(eger)", "string" and do not support unicode characters.

Am I good at math?
- Creating a server requires you to come up with several mathematical, for instance doing attack calculations, m-attack calculations, dodge, accuracy, and so on.

More specific questions for coding a server in C#

Do I know what the basic types for C# are, and when/why to use them? Do I understand the basic essentials of C#

Do I know how to use the (System.Net.Sockets.)Socket class?
- This is vital in making a server-socket for other TCP based clients to connect to.

Do I know what a thread is and how to create/abort one? Do I know when to use them, and what to use them for?
- Multi-threading your server is very crucial, or else the main thread will be extremely lagged up.

Do I understand thread-safe programming?
- A lot of people don't understand this, this is often the reason why client's close, because the server or application is not thread-safe and a packet becomes corrupted.

Be honest to yourself, and if you answered no to any of these; you really should go find out what they are. Knowing these things are vital in making an efficient server, just jumping in doesn't quite cut it, you usually just end up asking for help and usually annoying people. A crucial rule I've always lived by is never ask for help, unless you honestly need it. I usually try at the problem for a few days before I give up..

/agreed. I can't code a thing, but that still doesn't mean that I can't try. The more code i read, the more i understand. That's why i'm gonna continue working with LOTF to see what does what, where and why.

You need to have all that plus more to MAKE, or CODE an server,not to Rightclick -> Download and open an EXE.

Seriously guys,please learn before posting for help and saying your server is the ultimate best one ever made..

/Agreed to all of hybrids post to 100%

Lazy idiots will still be lazy idiots so I doubt they will care about good advice (which this topic most certainly is)

When you've been here longer than 2 minutes and you actually KNOW what you're talking about (which you don't) and who Hybrid is... then you can reply
