Hi guys,

At the moment are not enough server online especially for people like me who dont like time games. The marp server is just too laggy to play with more then 4 player or its just disappeared (maybe this is just a special problem on my place). And on the "great" pczone server, which is quite unplayable too, is a never ending game since a week. 
Maybe someone of you guys knows somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody who is willing to support galcon setting up a new server...The situation now is just not cool...

Agreed. I like Bacon, but can understand people who don't and would like to see more servers that work well.

Book is the only server up right now and it's full. NEED MORE SERVERS. I would execpt that I'm Mac only and the host function doesn't seem to work. Any Ideas? Phil?

Hosting on mac seems to work fine for me... after making sure that the port 9031 is routed to the box in the router/firewall.

I run the server inside "screen", an app inside Terminal which keeps a "session"... like this:
* open terminal (or open ssh connection to the box+login)
* run command "screen"
* start server like instructed in the guide: /Applications/Galcon.app/Contents/MacOS/galcon server -name NAME -passwd PASSWORD -gtitle "TITLE" -nosound
* press Ctrl-A and then D to "detach" the screen
* now you can close the terminal (or ssh connection)
* return later to the same screen session with command "screen -r"...

By the way... I tried to put a server to my old PentiumII 350MHz linux box. After getting the needed modules installed, it did sort of work...

Starting a game seemed to be so cpu-heavy operation (for the server) that client connection to server always timeouted when starting a game. However, one could still connect back to the server and start playing...
