fast.gml (makes dedicated servers fast, especially WINE)
« on: January 11, 2016, 06:22:44 pm »


GG2 runs very slowly in WINE. What if you want to host with it?

Solution: fast.gml! This plugin makes all objects, including the entire UI, invisible. This makes the game run at a smooth 30fps... but unplayable. So only use this for server hosting.


// FAST.GML © Andrea ([url=https://ajf.me]https://ajf.me[/url]) 2016
// gotta go fast
object_event_add(RateController, ev_step, ev_step_begin, '
    window_set_caption(string(fps) + " FPS");
    room_caption = string(fps) + " FPS";
');

object_event_add(PlayerControl, ev_create, 0, '
    alarm[6] = 10;
');

object_event_add(PlayerControl, ev_alarm, 6, '
    with (all) visible = 0;

    alarm[6] = 10;
');

aka Andrea.

did you know that spinning stars work like this???

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. execute_strings on fire off the shoulder of Overmars. I watched object-beams glitter in the dark near the room_goto_fix. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears...in...rain. Time to die.

You know, if we scrapped Plugin support and stopped piggybacking on string_execute, we could just port the game to Studio and make it *really* easy to run in WINE.

Vinmod had that feature, see if you can port it from there.

There's also view_visible[0] = 0; as it turns out, though I don't know if that actually disables drawing.
All draw functions do write to the primary view surface iirc, but if view_visible is disabled, the surface won't be sent to the GPU.
