One thing I here over and over about why not make a MMO is that if they get big they require a lot of CPU power. I do not think that is going to be a problem. This is just ONE stack of servers that we have ready to go once we get to that point.

Here is a picture with the door open as you can see we still have some room and right now we have plenty of power.

We took a break from the code and moved the Tectuma's back end servers into their new home. It was a nice happy fit with room to grow. We saved the 8' rack that it was in for a private cloud environment once we need the power.

We found out that it is kind of hard to write a script to change ships when we only have one ship in the game so far. So we are adding the “Jovian Droa” sooner than planned! This ship should be in game soon...

The ship selector is now in. Now to add the code so you can launch your ship into space and we can start adding new ships to Tectuma! Will not be long now!

Tectuma servers are getting a new HOME! A 5 foot Dell Rack with all the bells and whistles. I would like to give a HUGE thanks to Kevin, Nick, Brandon and Bart for helping get this monster to our house. And a special thanks to Stacie for putting up with a geek like me, dragging things like this home. I think she will just be happy to get rid of my 8 foot rack (Looking a little dated after 15 years). This almost new rack was going to be sent to the dump when I found it. This is a pic of the youngest member of Tectuma enjoying the new Rack (Have not told him yet that it is not his toy, LOL). We are just about ready to do a new push live were players will be able to buy ships too!
