1000 connection limit

[Cuteless]

I haven't found what will server do after the limit of connection is reached. What upc code will it return and when? Where can I read about it and how should I handle it?

Based on the lack of response, it doesn't look like there is much support for Union Platform, which makes me skeptical of using it in a production environment where there may be more than 1,000 users. This is too bad since Union seems to be a really good product otherwise.

Anyway, I tried de-compiling the code and I couldn't find anything that checked for user limits. That doesn't mean it's not there somewhere - it could easily be hidden. But, if there is no check, then nothing will happen.

hi cuteless,
currently, after the 1000th client is connected, the server simply disconnects all subsequent clients that attempt to connect, with no refusal notice.

in future, we're considering sending clients a u164 (CONNECTION_REFUSED) prior to the disconnect, as is currently the case for banned clients.

here's the ticket for future reference:
