How Hercules works

Hercules has a multi-process architecture. It runs three different processes: login-server, char-server and map-server.

Login Server

Login server : receives the login packet, checks if account exists and if the password is correct. If all is OK, the connection is then passed to the char-server.

Char-Server

Char-server : controls all the character related, Guild, party, pet, inventory etc.

Map-Server

The last one is the map-server, which controls char and NPC position, chats, skills, exp etc.
