Resolved Eggy Swarm

I thought the game would be never ending, that would be great, but the game finished/completed, I clicked main menu, then display/css is broken.

Hey there, first of all welcome to Eggy!

Unfortunately this isn’t actually a bug with Swarm, although I kind of wish it was because it would make things a lot easier haha.

What’s happening here is Cloudflare. I’ve purposely exempted /swarm/ from ever showing a reverification because if that popped up during live gameplay it could interrupt or break the game. The downside is that if Cloudflare decides you need to verify again while you’re still on /swarm/, it can’t actually show you the verification there. That’s what causes /swarm/ to end up looking like this. The fix is just to visit eggy.net without /swarm/ on the end. Once you leave /swarm/, Cloudflare is able to show the reverification normally. After that you can head back into Swarm and everything should be fine again. It’s a bit annoying, but it avoids Cloudflare suddenly interrupting a game halfway through.

I will have an endless game tomorrow I think its WAF you can exclude some urls with regex,or ask their AI to exclude it.

For now I’ve changed Cloudflare’s challenge passage from 30 minutes to 1 day and removed the Swarm specific exclusion from the rule. I’m going to leave it like that for now and see how it behaves before making any further changes. Hopefully the longer passage is enough to stop the repeat verification issue without needing anything more complicated.

I installed swarm, the ACP part is very comprehensive I like it, maybe add a link to a guide on setting up node & PM2 many people will struggle with it.

I found a small bug

Thanks, that makes sense. I may consider adding a short Node.js/PM2 guide or reference link for the final release, as I can see that side of the setup could be difficult for some users.

The multiplayer configuration within Swarm is intended to provide the connection to an existing Node.js server. Setting up and maintaining the Node.js/PM2 environment itself is separate from configuring Swarm to connect to it, so full server administration isn't really something I'd normally expect to support as part of the add-on.

As for the missing audio files, that one is a screw-up on my part. They should have been included in the package. I'll correct that by rebuilding the 1.0.0 product package and uploading a fresh version containing the missing files.

One point from my last message: Swarm does include the realtime multiplayer service itself. What I meant is that the Node.js/PM2 environment used to run it is separate from the XenForo add-on configuration. I’ll likely add a short Swarm-specific setup guide for the final release.

Excellent, I have another script that uses node with PM2 so it wasnt a problem, , I will install the Framework in a bit, Thanks

You're welcome
