Thank you, , for creating this and releasing it. Looking forward to the 1.2 release.

As my obligatory suggestion/wishlist: I think a basic skill system and hotbar would be very well received.

For those who would like to “host” your PHP and MySQL locally (on the same PC you use Unreal Editor), you could try something like Laravel Homestead. It’s basically a virtual machine image for VirtualBox + Vagrant and it comes with PHP 5.6 and MySQL. It’s a bit of trouble to set up, though far less trouble than trying to install a virtual machine, operating system, PHP, etc. individually. It removes the need for finding (and potentially paying for) a web host.

If you’re having an issue where on the login screen you submit your username and password, the game returns a “logged in” message but cannot proceed further, it’s because a PHP error is being generated. I suggest adding this line to mmoconnection.php (because it is included in the other scripts):

error_reporting(0);

Place it above this line:

$servername = ‘www.example.com’;

I’m using a webhost but I think xampp/easyphp/wamp would be easier then setting up a virtual machine dont you think?
