whats the max amount before additional plugins stop working because it seems to stop after 6 plugins (any plugins i add after that stops working)

editted:
doesnt seem to be the problem, i think some plugins are conflicting with each other

It doesn't really matter what the official max amount is. If your bot stops working after 6, that's what the max is.

32 I believe is the max number now on the newer builds.

thx, now i can conclude that the plugin is either conflicting with another plugin or its not compatible with the newer build which im using

I'm not sure how they'd "conflict"; other than having the same commands; which this is why I've begun adding, !pluginname_cmd.

But hopefully you can figure it out; if you do let us know

i have run a seperate bot soley with flagbot 7.5 plugin and i think the plugin is broken on mervbot build 44 (though i dont have further proof)

yah 32 is the limit on plugins, but technically the limit is the amount of time it takes for the dlls to complete thier task with the core still has time to send packets. So the more plugins loaded, the more time it will take for them to complete thier task. This makes the bot lag, and then it begins to miss stuff (position packets and such). If it takes more than 100 ms for the dlls to complete a single task, i believe youll start getting problems.

The server shouldn't restart.. heck I used to run a zone on dialup w/ 7-8 people, almightly lag; but it didn't restart....

The restarting is a problem with the server-biller connection.

I've also had zones with 10 people on and all under 100ms ping. Maybe it's a problem on your end?
