[comp.sources.games.bugs] Trouble with 'Search': Multiplayer game

bharat@cf-cm.computing-maths.cardiff.ac.uk (Bharat Mediratta) (04/22/91)

Hello out there in netland,

	I recently grabbed a copy of 'search' an old multiplayer search
and destroy game (circa 1985) off of a ftp site.  It used to be a favorite
of mine a long time ago and I was wondering if anybody had gotten it to work
on the Sun networks.  I get it to compile without any warnings, but when
I try to run it I get something like the following in the error log:

	
starting daemon, pid 648
listening at port 3756
select error in newplayer()
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select
error, input select

Does anybody remember this game?  Does anybody out there know the solution
to this problem?  If not, can anybody tell me how to get in touch with
Matt Crawford	(last seen at <ihnp4!oddjob!matt> or <crawford@anl-mcs.arpa> or
		<matt@uchicago.csnet> or <x1.crawford@uchicago.bitnet>)

My thanks in advance,

Bharat
