Hi Zach, well the server is simply compiled the normal way and is stored under /usr/local/games the tricky part was including the dependend package that are not natively on tiger within the deployment. The client simply checks if it can find the dir and launches the server as a seperate NSTask, you can even create additional robots, but they run just as they would from the commandline. They are simply wrapped in an NSTaskWrapper which monitors the processes. I did notice that the client does not always close the server, resulting in a very long time robots fighting other robots. (They had reached commander by the time i got back :-) > is the source code available? Will do, as soon as i get around to clean it up a bit, drop me a mail if you are in a hurry. (For those interested there is a development log at http://mactrek.sourceforge.net but no code) > Steven is about to download: > > I'm going to test this as soon as I get home (delta+10hours or so), > and then if it lets me fire torps and phasers, I'll update the > website. > I'm quite sure it should do that :-) if not please file a bug report through the sourceforge page, i'm confident there are still quite a few bugs in there. (Like an echo in Worf's voice) See you in/at the continium Chris
