SUGGESTION - Add the ability to play multiple games on one server #70

Closed SampleProvider closed 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated when someone presses ready with another player online and I can't play on the server.

Describe the solution you'd like Anyone else will join the lobby and will be able to play in a different game. Chat messages will be global across the server.

Describe alternatives you've considered Run multiple servers, however bad.

This might impact performance negatively if there are too many games running and it will require a rewrite of code in multiple different places. But might try.

Most games do search for a different server if a server is not available to keep simplicity.

Looking at how JavaScript works, it will be more resource-efficient to run multiple servers than to run multiple games on one server, since it is a single-threaded language. So instead of having multiple low-TPS games on one server it would be better to run multiple servers.

In short, no, this will not be added.
