Title: Squadron Commander Will Go Down at 7PM Eastern
Post by: Herr Burt on September 23, 2004, 01:47:03 pm
It just struck me that I was in danger of running a server that didn't get patched before it ended.  Well, we can't have that!!

Expect SC to go down tonight at about 7PM Eastern.  It will be patched, and a new installer will be available.  To run the new installer, simply double-click the FromSquad icon you already have, and then delete the SquadMaker directory from your machine.  Extract the new installer into your Starfleet Command OP directory, as you did with the first, and you'll have a new SquadMaker directory with install and uninstall buttons.


What will this mean?

I discovered the typo that was preventing the Romulan base stations and starbases from launching their PFs.  This patch will fix that.

Cleaning
In addition, I'll clean the database, which is getting crowded in a couple of hexes that have changed hands several times.  Since the server has to come down for this anyway, now is a good time for the patch.

Finally

Finally, let me take this moment to shamelessly say that the server needs more coalition.  We've had a good turnout from the Gorn for the alliance.  A bit more for the other side would be nice.

Assuming you are talking about the Lynx's, you couldn't do any more to them... they even make lousy cannon fodder!
They did produce a pretty image last night though, 3 of them blew up at the same time side by side - it was like a miniature sun popped up in the middle of the battle. Shoulda taken a screenshot, it was purdy!

I beg to differ, my skills with ship edit are legendary. <snicker>
