Re: Network Server host question
Answers:
A) You can stop it and restart it with no problem.
B) most of the starting items (like map) are unneeded on a restart but quickhost is needed
C) that line might work. And it should also ask you in text mode for anything it needs.
Notes:
A) Technically, thats how its meant to be run actually. As a pbem and not as a continual server.
B)but I find it safer to put them in than to try and figure out what I can leave out.
C) You might want to put that line in a script and make it executable. That saves you haveing to rememeber all this when someone asks for a change such as --hours 24. And it iwll let you do things like
nice nohup dom3 xxxxxxxxxxxxx &
You should also get in the habit of putting a master password on the game. Its a real pain to have a game die months into it because you cant change a player.
