do you know DrFlay by any chance?.. if not then have a read through
here as he has very similar thoughts to you .. and there are people that can make this happen if possible.
however there is a problem that we have been facing for years.. and I need to consult someone in order to see if they can assist in fixing this and releasing a patch to cater for things like this.
the problem is file mismatches.. same file name different version.
public redirects atm.. can only hold 1 version of saidfile.u right , so.. if saidfile.u is modified and saved as saidfile.u then that file will fail to be sent from the public redirect yeah..
ok in saying that what admins should do .. is add saidfile.u to the very last position in the ut.ini ie;
ServerPackages[9999]=saidfile
that way after all other files have been sent from redirect .. the last one saidfile.u will be sent from the server instead.
another engine fix that we need in fact is the ability to send larger files from server if redirect fails at a better rate.
as for some reason they are sent at pathetic speeds and this is another issue which should be resolved imo.
