General Suggestion - Stop the client from requesting files that don't exist (fix load times) [Completed]

Recommended Posts

What are you suggesting?

Find some way to stop the client from requesting files that don't exist on the server (I.E. dogbark.mp3). I'm not a coding expert, but according to some more tech-savvy users who use fancy debuggers and shit, the client repeatedly requests files such as the elusive "dogbark.mp3" on loop when the file doesn't exist on the server, causing server load times to be vastly increased because it just requests the file until it completely gives up.

How would this change better the server?

Vastly increase loading times by not forcing the client to repeatedly request a file that doesn't exist until it gives up

Are there any disadvantages of making this change to the server? If so, explain.

might take SMT some time

Who would this change mostly benefit?

quite literally everyone
