Default Re: New & raw web based Dominion II game server

You might want to restart the host with a "process at midnight"

a kludgy work-around for missing players (if you didnt put in a master password) is to copy a turned-in file to the players name. It wont work for just any old file. If Man seems to be missing and Ctis has done their turn then copy Ctis.2h to Man.2h in the same directory.

This is good for when the player has actually been beaten but hasnt returned that Last file to the host to let the host know that they got that "you've been beaten" message. Im thinking that the host should maybe be rewritten to skip that.
