Re: New Game Server
 

sorry for my silence.
The problem that I've found with running with the "noclientstart" option is that then no one can start the game, since I'm running the server with the "-T" option, since its remote and I can't have a window open on it. If you know a way around this, I'm very interested. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

So I will use my masterpass magic to make players computer controlled if they don't take their turns in a timely manner.

Anyway, I'm going to start this game now, so hold on to your hats!

Ack! For some stupid reason, now I can't connect to my own nation (Ermor), but I can connect to other nations with the master password. Geesh. I wish the command-line interface was better than it is!

Re: New Game Server
 

oops, I just realized that I wasn't in this game as Ermor, but as Marignon. D'oh! Nonetheless, the master password doesn't seem to work, so if someone drops out of the game, I can only force host: I can't make them computer controlled.

Re: New Game Server
 

So what's the deal with schedule? Are you going to have a set time when the server runs, or just set it to quick-host?

Are you shooting for X number of turns per day?

I probably should have asked these questions before I joined, I suppose...

Re: New Game Server
 

I have it set for quick host, but I'll force host after two or so days if people don't take their turns.

Zachariah, i've emailed you my pretender. I set a wrong password and know i can't play my turn. You have to replace the atlantis.2h you have with the one i sended in order to take my turn.

Re: New Game Server
 

Server seems to be down. Has the first turn been completed?
