Are you sure server doesn't quit connection for any kind of motivation?

(You can check what really happens between server and client by sniffing your connection with utilities like WireShark)

I'm sure. There's nothing that would cause the connection to close. In fact, when a bunch of connections are opened, the 3DS starts closing connections by just ceasing communication.
If you want a look at the Node.js code, let me know.

A proper report of what happens with WireShark could help understanding if the problem is in lpp-3ds or not.

During the capture, I turned my n3DS's wifi on from the home menu, then opened lpp and repeatedly tried to connect with the section of code I posted earlier. Other family members were using the network as well, so there's some traffic to sort through.
My n3DS's IP is 192.168.254.28.

I sorted through the dump myself. All I found were a couple Windows things, nothing else.

Currently i'm not on my "university" house in Bologna and i don't have an updated version of lpp-3ds sourcecode (since i was working on a major refactor to the whole interpreter and the sourcecode is on my Desktop PC). Anyway, tomorrow i'll take a look to WireShark dump file and i'll try to reproduce the same issue with my console.

It looks like N3DS IP doesn't appear at all in your file :/
Are you sure server at least reaches your request? Cause if so, there should be something in that file about it.

I'm sure the server gets the request. It must be something related to LPP-3DS, because I get data.

Whenever I call System.listCIA(), lpp3ds crashes and the 3DS reboots.
Sample:

cias = System.listCIA() 
while true do 
    if Controls.check(Controls.read(),KEY_HOME) or Controls.check(Controls.read(),KEY_POWER) then 
        System.exit() 
    end 
end

I'm using lastest commit, cia build, lastest DevKitPro, Luma3DS a9lh.

Just wondering, would it be possible to download a file with a progress bar?

 

[LiquidFenrir]

To do it with a progress bar you'd have to use sockets @PabloMK7
Unfortunately the sockets system/module is broken

I just finished learning basic LUA, can't wait to use this!

what happened with thath module?

 

[PabloMK7]

Would it be possible to make a font print center-aligned? (or at least, a function that calculates the amount of x and y pixels of a string printed with a font, so we can calculate the how it should be aligned.)

 

[EvilTusk]

Will you be able to support UTF-8? Cuz I want to print some Chinese characters.

 

[chinhodado]

Is it possible to load external Lua library like SQLite with this?

There shouldn't be problem but for some kind of libraries you'll need to rewrite part of the code. (For example if the io library is used cause on lpp-3ds they are slightly different from the original ones cause extdata support.

It's not broken, it's used for example in FileKong.

I was working on this feature since the library that lpp-3ds currently uses is the same used in original lua player plus for PSP (that had such feature) but we had problem with that feature (like wrong size as output) and NaNNi (my collaborator who made the TTF library) is kinda hard to find online .

Will you be able to support UTF-8? Cuz I want to print some Chinese characters.

It's one of my main goals but it will require quite a lot of re-writing so i always postponed such modification for now.
