hermanm Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 I tried to manually add a local peer, but I was unable to make it appear on the peers list for that torrent. Not sure if my global connection max or peer per torrent max was the problem. Anyway, would it be possible to let manually adding a peer take priority and drop least desirable peer (e.g. inactive)? This idea is an extension on the recent 1.8 change:--- 2008-04-20: Version 1.8 beta (build 9704)- Change: drop inactive peers in favor of local peers, if a connection limit is hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 AFAIK peers are tried in the order added... If you are running multiple torrents with lots of connections-per-torrent it will take longer for the peer to be tried. You can verify the peer is being tried by turning on Log Incoming and Log Outgoing connections in Peer Traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Hazel Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 It's not clear, but this change only drops a peer when a local connection is incoming. It does not try to make an outgoing connection and drop a peer if it succeeds. That will be added eventually, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 AFAIK peers are tried in the order added...Naw:Add Peer... allows you to add a peer manually if you know the peer's IP address and port. µTorrent will attempt to connect to the newly-added peer as soon as possible.It'll attempt as soon as it can -- when the number of simultaneous connections clears up, for example. This has been the behavior since 1.7.x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
