Default Re: Starting a new game...

Even MORE good news!
This one also works! The other one should work for Dom2 but this one is Dom3 only

dom3 -STd --port 5432 --era 1 --mapfile eye.map --uploadmaxp 6 pbem

OK definetly leave off the -g
And the uploadmxp thing is a new switch (one which I requested) which allows you to set the number of players that a game can have. It will auto-start when it hits that number. It was mostly for things like small-map blitz games where you wanted them to choose any nation you wanted but you wanted the game to start after 2 people joined, or 3 people, or 4. You could even start a full game and use --noclientstart so that it would start automatically when the nations were full.

ANYWAY.. it will autostart the game. If you have 6 gods uploaded to the game dir, and set it for max 6 players, then it will check the files and start the game. YAY!
