Max concurrent users per room?

Postby tfernando » January 23rd, 2010, 3:07 pm

What is the maximum number of concurrent users I ran have per room, within a game? Or is there no hard maximum?

On previous iterations, there was a limit of 32 players per room. However, I don't know what/if there is a set limit now.

The server used to fail to run if you set the max players higher than the virtual max so it's easy enough to verify - that said, I will check with the developers as soon as possible.

Actually, the current limit is 45. We're thinking about maybe extending it for the paid-packages.

Max concurrency is maximum online across all rooms and games.

So for the free plan, it will eventually be 500 users per room technically?

No, 500 people playing the game (across all rooms) at one time will be the limit for the free service. The limit for each individual room itself will be 45.

See here.

Bear in mind, while PlayerIO is in beta, these limits are turned off.

OFC, but it only has information about concurrent users for the entire game.

We'll have to put that in the documentation :-)
