New Game Server

[Comandante Loko]

I can connect to the server. We are waiting for me to take my turn (Atlantis), but i can do nothing unless Zachariah puts my correct .2h file in the game folder.

Sorry.

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.

Email it to me at my address:
zack@evilzombies.com

and I'll put it in place.

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.

use '--noclientstart' until you want to start the game.

That just makes it so that no one can start the game. There's no way to start the game from the command-line, only through the GUI, and there's no way to say that only a particular user can start the game.
thanks for your help,

The server is there now: it may have been down for a brief time.

Hmm, I just dont see how putting a different .2h file in the game folder will help. The first turn has already been generated by the host. I cant imagine how you could do a valid turn without connecting to the actual pretender..

I'm going to force host this evening (in 10 hours or so). There are some folk who dropped without becoming computer controlled.

You can put down the other server now, I've beaten everyone exept the computer, and thats just a matter of playing the game. but as it in effect would be a single player game from now on, im not going to bother

Also, perhaps we should restart without the dropouts? they can be a pretty disruptive force in the game, and we're still in the beginning.

[Zachariah]

I'd rather not restart. Its just another element of chance. At least there's 2 of them, so that evens things a little.

[Zachariah]

I just forced hosted again. I'll set the timer for two days (in case I miss it), but if every human gets their turn in, I'll host.

See you on the battlefield!
