You said updates don't take loads? lol, k.

How come when I used to reinstall NR, and update it with my license in it, my count always died.

I personally find that charging for a bot or even bother advertising is both rude and tacky.

I like the way CloudyServ Doesn't Advertise, tho When you type !version he should add his website in with it! Smile

Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Lol, no wonder the only servers using NR are Nightma's servers, and 1% of his customers. (Gaylord PSU)

Man your right! Sarcasm

A few servers use NightReg, I bet you just didn't realize because you stick to the servers at the top of the listing.

NightRegulator will catch up to BRenBot or CloudyServ.

Lets go over why. (Once again)

1. Unpro Coding (Some responses are immature.. and unprofesional)
2. Ads (If you pay, you get ripped off allot cause the bot purposely gets rid of your count by updating, (versions and beta), crashing, and purposely restarting.
3. GUI hogging cpu (bad for hosting..)

But, it does help set settings easier.. But that is only 1 good thing about it..

Lol, Ren-Archive still uses BlazeRegulator.. (Which still crashes less then [NR], and produces less messages in game so you can concentrate better.)

But I used to love the older version of [NR], don't know why it sucks now, lol.

tell me one time when the latest BETA has crashed and what you were doing when you were?

3. GUI hogging cpu (bad for hosting..)


a GUI will hog memory, not CPU

NR uses a up to 6MB.... and when its really busy, can use up to about 24MBish, as far as CPU goes - i havnt had a single complaint from the latest BETA

if your going to enable setjoins..... tank msgs, mine msgs, etc the of coursei ts going to output alot

meh - im not gonna argue anymore, wait untill the latest version is out of BETA, im most likely going to be removing the ads - and trust me, the planned features PWN Very Happy (Alex, hush Wink )

you could count the SBot but i have given up on that untill i get some time where i am bored. i have lost all motivation for it because of lack of suport.

the Seye? again...im not motivated, and like i have already said, lack of support.

For the seye you have had a 5 page topic? Seems like some people are intrested in it.

For sbot: I guess that the community doesn't really need yet another bot. i remember you saying that you wanted to do it so you could learn from it Wink.

When you mean lack of support, what do you mean exactly?

Lack of money, lack of ideas? what? I can always help out.

btw Nightma, how come when I ask you, why you added in the 4x restart daily thing, you always say "i added it in a long time ago" like a little kid would say "mom, i got this 50% on my test, it was a long time ago" instead of giving me a real answer?

if you must know, it was added in NR v0.0.2 when NR wasnt the most stable of stable of bots....

it was originally designed to fix a few bugs that were caused by running NR for long periods of time - and it worked Smile

ive also found restarting every 6 hours - helps with any possible memory leaks it may have. and the memdumps i created work perfect for ensureing things such as votes in progress - mods logged in, etc are not interupted after a restart

also, notice how NR only checks for updates when it connects to the FDS.... it gives NR a chance to check for updates too

ive accually ran a copy of NR myself with the restart disabled and it runs fine, apart from a bug where it seems to lose connection to the FDS after 24 hours and needs to reconnect to fix this - however a simple PING? PONG! would fix this Smile

however as it stands... unless theres a real big reason to remove the restart then theres no reason to remove it


^^ does that answer your question?

the ads came AFTER the restarts went in

its supposed to use up 4 a day, so you get some sort of timelimit on it

the reason i dont sell by a strict date - is because this way it allows you to send your license.bnr out to other people - i dont mind! Smile but it just means that your license will run out faster as its taking up loads on another pc too

its supposed to expire... of course, if soembodys NR is constantly crashing for whatever reason then i might consider raiseing there load count if they can provide me significant proof

however - as it stands, the latest BETA does, i admit.. come up with alot of errors sometimes - but i havnt had one single crash report on it. BETA 6 will be out in a few days anyway with 99% of these errors fixed

Lol, NightRegulator is good for the following reasons

- GUI Control Panel (Good and bad for some reasons)
- Kick-ASS Support (Nothing like have the bot connect to servers to check for updates, problems, even licenses, and Nightma of course kick-ass programmer and debugger.)

But, unrecommended.

I would like to see you program a Bot.

What good would it do? There is no point in creating a new bot now, renegade is going to die soon, we all know it, we just like to hide it.

I would still like to see you program a Bot.

Otherwise stop telling Nightma his bot sucks. Because I realy don't think you can make one.
