Okay, so I got a chance to play around with this in the AM before heading into work and here is what I have so far;
Testing on my local machine with the injection DLL to support more than 4 players worked fine. Didn't experience any crashes, but I was only testing with me and my wife's machines, so we never hit the 4p limit to begin with.
Second, moved the data to my server, and then I started getting the problem that seems to be cropping up in the non-official cubeworld forums. Notably, the you can connect, and the server says you connect but you can't interact with anything and you don't see anyone else in the world.
Bugger.
So I'm going to run through some more tests tonight to get this up on my server and a bit more stable. I'm going to try and put in place a process restarter, but since the server is a unique one with the DLL injection, I don't know how stable that will be if crashes are experienced. At the same time, I'm going to rewrite a part of the DLL (source was provided) to try and fix the connection issue since he's already exposing some of the interfaces.
Hoping to have a test up tonight. After testing, I'll post info here for all to enjoy!
