bitdave Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 Hi, I recently switched from Bitcomet to uTorrent and had a few questions that I didnt want to post in the main sections. I tried the Search feature first but maybe my searching skills are lacking cause i didnt find any good answers.1) I was seeding a torrent and am wondering if I Stop it will it finish uploading whatever pieces that were currently going? Or does it just cut the leechers off mid-piece.2) If it does stop uploading mid-piece, does another seeder pick up that piece where I left off.Or does the leecher just dump the partial piece as rubbish data. Also how long before the leecher dumps my partial piece as rubbish or do they dump it right away? (like if I restart that torrent an hour later and the leecher still hasnt got the piece I was sending will they pick up the partial piece where I left off or would that partial piece already have been dropped?)Another quick question does the new v1.5 have the ability to right click on a torrent and scrape the tracker or does it only have that scrape_stopped for all the torrents in ur list.
Firon Posted March 26, 2006 Report Posted March 26, 2006 1) Cuts them off mid-chunk, not mid piece (each chunk is 16KB)2) it dumps your partial chunk then gets it from someone else. Probably does so immediately.3) Update tracker = scrape (for queued and stopped torrents), and is announce for started torrents. If the torrent is stopped (not queued), then the scrape won't do anything unless you turn on bt.scrape_stopped.
