Re: New game server
I'm just going to leave the server running, and once all turns are in, it will host.
Once there are 5 people, I'll start it.
The option for not letting people start the game only works if you run the server in a window, which I can't do (it's remote).

Re: New game server
There are 6 now.
To create a button for going directly to the game.....
Right-click your Dom2 shortcut on your desktop
choose copy
right-click a blank spot on your desktop
choose paste
right-click the new shortcut
choose properties
Change the "target" line to be
"C:\Program Files\dominions2\dom2.exe" -waif --tcpclient --ipadr 209.157.135.121 --port 10000
Change the icon to something else. Change the title of the icon to something like Dom2GAME if you wish
read the doc file for "Command Line Switches" and see what other things could be put there instead of w a i f (windowed, no animated backgrounds, no intro, no fades) such as maybe adding m for no music and x for fast graphics. It will only be for this game and will not affect your default settings when you use your original icon to play your other games. My button now has -mwaifx

You can start the game and then set it to be computer run.
