[comp.sources.games.bugs] Hunt

[choke on this line eater]

I have sucessfully setup a version of hunt (version 2) but I have a
question that hopefully somebody out there can answer.

1) According to the source code there is a feature in hunt2 that will
   consult a list of players (in the file 'hunt-players') and will
   send a message to them when the game starts up. Has anyone got this
   feature working? If so, HELP ME!

   Where is this file supposed to be located? What is the format for
   the file?

I have set up the game in my personal directory (not /usr/games) and
have set the approprate protections. We are running a Sun4 under UNIX
and I think I got all the flags correct in the makefile. I have also
tried making a 'hunt-players' file and locating it in /tmp and my home
directory, but no go.
So why doesn't this feature work? Not supported on a Sun4? or what?

Thats all for now...			Thanks in advance,
