BlueBox is not working
Posted: 16 Oct 2007, 16:23
Hi,
We are using SmartfoxServer for our online kids virtual world game. One of biggest issue is the firewall issue since most of the big corporations and education institutions have strict firewall settings, so they couldn't access our game. So I tried out this BlueBox thing, which seems promising, but it seems that it's not working for me. Here is the couple of things I found:
1. I have no problem to connect to the server through BlueBox all the time, which is good;
2. But sometimes (not quite often) the there is no response from the server for the login request;
3. sometimes (quite often) there is no response for the join room request from the server;
4. the connection get lost if the user is idle for a couple of minutes even if I set the maxUserIdleTime to couple of hours. This happened pretty consistently;
I don't know if someone else tested it out and found these issues too. Please advise.
Thanks,
Yu
