New Stats and APBBR

**UPDATE**
Ok I think I have crippled the initial bugs, however if you find anymore please post them. I'm going to have the remove the win/loss code by the looks of it as it refuses to work for no real good reason.

This is effectively a trial period, nothing will be final until next Sunday when the database will (hopefully) have one last wipe before everything being for real.
**UPDATE**

I will be testing the new bot and stats well through the night, it will be happening on the official server as this is the best way to do it.

Please be patient as there will be bugs I have missed and I will have to fix things on the fly.

APB 1.3.1FDS / SSAPB 1.4 Released!
Jan 14 2010, 01:58 AM
Chronojam

A brand new free dedicated server (FDS) package is now available, thanks to efforts by zunnie, reborn and the contributions from a number of other great staff and community members.

What is the FDS? Simply put, it is the core gameserver application. FDS stands for "free dedicated server." It is a no-frills, console-based dedicated server for A Path Beyond. It allows other clients to connect and play.
What is SSAPB? "Server-side-APB" is a collection of additional enhancements and code modifications designed to give a host more control over the server than the FDS alone provides, but is not able to be used in conjunction with a mere game client "listen server". It can only be applied to a true FDS, and is of no benefit unless the FDS is in use.

What are the features? This package comes with everything you need to host a server. Beyond just the FDS, it has all the RA:APB 1.3.1 data files and maps, a fully functional IRC bot for management, full TeamSpeak 2 support, support for popular commands like !donate and !swap, anti-abuse code for refilling and demo trucks, plus support for alternate gameplay modes such as snipers-only, random crates, and a whole lot more.

This hosting package is the definitive hosting platform for A Path Beyond, and is a ready-to-go solution for anybody looking to host a server for the public, for a clan, a place to host their fan maps, or anybody else who wants a permanent gameserver available. Only minimal configuration is required, and everything there is well documented. Find out more.

New Trailer & Blog

If you check out our latest blog, you can see our brand new trailer! Not only that, you can hear a bit about how to support us over at ModDB (There's about a week left for final voting) and learn a bit about what we're doing to replace some of the ancient content we have, not to mention some news about the 1.4.0 build and the coming FDS.

What are you waiting for? Take a look!

Attention server owners! Zunnie has also just released a new build of Server-Side A Path Beyond. Those of you who operate a game server can download and use SSAPB 1.40 to enhance your gameserver with the very latest features and functionality, including support for alternative gameplay modes such as buy-your-base or snipers-only. This will also allow you to introduce crates into the game, which can either help or hurt you. Feelin' lucky, punk? Check the Game Updates thread for more details.

Players do not need to download SSAPB in order to enjoy the benefits of an SSAPB-enabled server. But if you run a server, you've got nothing to lose and a whole lot of new features to gain.
