Discuss adding options for world grids

This may now not be necessary based on the recent living world commit [url]https://github.com/mangoszero/server/commit/8113cdc1ebff644088aa08990abb25a7082d1ef4[/url]

I would still like an option to load an entire zone with even one player in it so things like Stitches work.

This commit should allow that. I updated my mangos.conf and continents 0 and 1 stay active and the 'wanderers' seem to be wandering !

That load the entire continent, including all zones. How much does that affect RAM? I am not against keeping all zones loaded as long as it doesn't require gobs of RAM.

mangosd.conf "Living World" option
- I seem to recall Antz saying it used 2gb of memory, which sounds good to me. Assuming dedicated machine is used.
I need to test this out on my way crappy Linux server, which has 4 gig of ram!!! plus some totally sub standard processor (not even quad core!) :)

Having a choice, one being what Talendrys says, would be excellent, especially for those who haven't got the resources to allow for a "Living World".

Quote by Antz in a recent conversation, when he was explaining what "Living World" meant:
"on my server, uses 2gb of memory"
" LoadAllGridsOnMaps = "1,0" "

I'm amazed I remembered that. My memory must be improving, lol

Also remember that every NPC in-game is active. How is CPU? Then consider say, a hundred players...

Going to be closing this as I will be opening a new ticket, will reply shortly with the link to the new entry.
