Zone/pricing questions

Can users chat/interact across zones, or are zones like totally different games in their own spaces?

Are the SmartFoxServer licenses per server? Ie, do two servers running a game require two licenses?

Zones hold separate applications, so they were thought to be completely isolated from each other. In other words each Zone runs a different application in the server which knows nothing about the other apps.

Anyways using server side extensions it would be possible to make Zones communicate and exchange data.

Each licence can run on a single IP address. So you could run more instances of the server on the same IP but you would need more licences to run it on different machines.

The demo version runs on any IP address.
