1. Why do you complie a server?
2. What does compling a server do?
3. Do you have to comple a server everytime you add new scripts, and other custom made items?
4. What is the difference between Console and GUI like as in TFS Console version, and TFS GUI version?

I havnt had a chance to try and complie the server im using because i dont even know if i have to do it and all that soo, if i could get some answers on that one to it would help me alot. Thanks this site has been a big help in helping me learn all this. Btw im using theforgottenserver-v0.2-win32gui. and Gesior acc. maker 0.3.0 for TFS 0.2.x. if any of that info is needed

1. When you compile a SVN you get the exe that you use to run the server. (Not have to be exactly an exe can be a DLL if im not wrong)
2. Compile make an exe.
3. Nope.
4. With gui it's look more friendly and you have more options like reload NPCS and with console it's just a black windows thats show you server msgs... like X player logged in....

Hope i help you with that answers

So then basically the only reason to complie would be to update the server if any update for the config come out or say the version like to got from 8.11 to 8.21 right?
