[fixed] MegaGlest is a long time about closing 8-10 seconds.

Core data

What i did.

I started the game went to internet lobby joined a headless and disconnected and returned to main menu and clicked exit.

(Well f***** **** ****** ***).

(Edit for information i FORGOT).

Win7 64 Bit
SVN version 4057.
(and just in case I got it from the SVN and compiled it myself).

Do you even read the "READ THIS FIRST"? Version of MegaGlest? Operating system? Download location?

[Coldfusionstorm]

I edited the first port to contain the information i forgot.

This only happens when a network connection has been established, but then it takes, in my Windows 7 VM, (roughly) 15 seconds to shut down.
So I assume it is the winsock cleanup which takes a while. I guess it may be possible to background the process (or return to operation in non-graphical mode)  while it keeps shutting down the socket so the user can continue with something else in the meantime.

Another approach my be to just ignore the socket state and have the operating system on both ends of the connection deal with closing the connection and liberating the socket (I would think it does this generally, based on a timeout) on application exit (only). This can seem programmatically dirty but I assume that's how many other applications (not) handle it, too.

Confirmed. MegaGlest closed in about a second while in the custom game screen, but took about ten seconds to close after joining one of the master servers.

Not much can be done, the first time the IRC client connects to the IRC server it takes time. If you start and close the game before we can close the login process to the IRC server you have to wait for it to a) finish or b) abort.

A hard system exit is not possible here ?

[Coldfusionstorm]

Other games are able to close so, it's possible somehow, what about having a "close button" function call, alt-f4, ect, When activated just hard killing all processes or just hard killing network processes or stuff like that.

Found a way to do it, fixed in svn rev#: 4259

[Coldfusionstorm]

Exelent!, I will check it out!. (Might take some some time, need to get my game to compile again).

[tomreyn]

Have you had a chance to test this, yet, Coldfusionstorm?
Anyone else on Windows?

[Coldfusionstorm]

Last i checked i couldn't compile the game, and i haven't had time to get it to work yet sorry.

[tomreyn]

I think Coldfusionstorm said on IRC he considers this [fixed] now. And so do I.
