alternative 1.2 MP server on games.tuxfamily.org

Post by **Soliton** » March 25th, 2007, 8:10 pm

As you might have noticed server.wesnoth.org has some issues as of today. Since we've been kindly offered hosting of a server on tuxfamily.org I've now setup a new 1.2 MP server on games.tuxfamily.org. Test it!

Instead of 'Join Official Server' choose 'Join Game' from the multiplayer menu and type in games.tuxfamily.org. (Port is the default 15000 so no need to specify it.)

EDIT: Replaced manzana with games since that seems to be an alias and is probably nicer to remember.
server.wesnoth.org is up again. We'll see about how we'll use that new server in the future.

Woot! New server! But does anyone use it?

a feature request - can you make a "list of other servers" besides the default server? so people say when they have some server there?

also, for those servers, its location and notes should be included (like, for french-speaking only or buddhist only etc).

.......Nevermind.

Yeah, we definitely need to advertise this server more. I've literally never seen a single person on it, and I've been checking pretty often and at all times of day (I don't sleep).

I could not connect to it today, when the other server was down shortly. I hit "join game" and then entered "games.tuxfamily.org:15000". Did I do anything wrong?

No. What version did you try with and was there any error message?

Speaking of alternate servers, let it be officially recorded that the 1.2.4 server crashed at 8:00 EST today.

Perhaps a metaserver could be created?

I love the prefix "meta"
