It took its time - but now it's done: Instead of using my homegrown "network filter" that basically sent the message to each player individually and directly (in loops for all kinds of groups), Traces of Illumination is now using Unity's built-in networking-scoping ...

Traces of Illumination was mentioned in Unite 2008: Highlights And Award Winners on GameCareerGuide. This is the second time Traces of Illumination is "in the media"; first it was in the Unity Developer Magazine, Issue 2 (I had written about that before).

Wait a minute ... no, this is still not about the news of Traces of Illumination. Right: Right after Unite 2008, I was on a 12-day intensive meditation experiential seminar. That was a pretty great experience with many hours of deep meditations every day ...

Ok, so altogether, I did three major load-testing sessions to which I had invited all people currently registered with the site. The goal of those load-testing sessions was to find out how many simultanuous players my server can currently take ...

I've just sent out the invitation to the first load-test of Traces of Illumination. For the purpose of this load-test, I've created a special "load-test client" which immediately logs in to the server. The user only needs to join a team, and then wait until a real player hits "play" - the load-test client basically simulates a user with the simple AI that's also used in single player mode. The full invitation:

I had been going back and forth with this for a couple of weeks now, and during last week, I finally came to a decision: TRaceON is now called Traces of Illumination.

As you may have noticed, I could be considered somewhat "aware" of names and what they refer to or what they associate you with. That's why I'm using Jashan Chittesh instead of Holger Wagner. It's also the reason why I think I never mentioned the name of the portal system used for this site on this site. And that was for a reason! I'll mention it one time today, but then it will be gone from this site. Because now, at last: WISDOM is here ...
