Hello, Has anybody experience these problems with the new version of xtrek? (the one without the shared memory stuff) 1. If a user is playing against with a practice robot and a new player joins in, the game terminates. 2. After multiplayer plays for more than 3 minutes, and a new player joins in, the game terminates. Basically the game terminates when a user dies, or join in. Any way to debug it ? Any way to fix it ? Thanks in advance.

I tried to send this message to the address given in the README for this latest (I hope) version of xtrek. The mailer does not know 'unix.eta.com' nor does it know 'eta.com' so I am posting my message here. ------ Begin Included Message ----- From greg Thu Aug 9 16:02:33 1990 To: ddickey@unix.eta.com Subject: getting xtrek up and running Dan: I hope that it is not too much difficulty for you to take a couple of minutes and see if you can figure out what my problem is with making xtrek run on my system. Vitals: Sun386i, X11R4, xtrek 1.2 I have built the executables as directed in the READMEs. The only thing that I changed is the destination directories. Instead of /usr/games/lib/xtrek I use /usr/bin/X11/games/lib/xtrek. Permissions seem to be set correctly. I restarted inetd as prescribed (even tried rebooting, to no avail). One warning...I got three warnings during compilation having to do with some constants (I believe...they were in ALL CAPS) being redefined. Problem: when trying to run xtrek I get a "Connection refused" message from the server. This occurs when trying to run xtrek from the console of the server or from an X terminal. Any suggestions?? Thanks for any insight. I am quite familiar with this machine, but not that much of a network guru. ----- End Included Message ----- Can anyone out there help??
