• Galactic Dynasty

    From apam@21:1/125 to All on Tue May 29 20:20:50 2018
    Hi All

    I've made some changes to the next version of Galactic Dynasty. Packets
    that are the wrong game id will be renamed with a .GAL.OLD extension,
    packets that are a wrong version or otherwise bad will be renamed with a .GAL.BAD, only packets for a different league will be left untouched.

    Hopefully this will help cleaning out your inbox in the case of version mismatches.

    Very useful change. I have already forgotten the steps to take when this message appears after quitting the game.

    Just by the way I really like the 0.6.1-fsxnet version. Good work.

    Have a good day

    Hey Andrew,

    Can you get me set up for the GD league game? I finally got GD compiled and running. Not sure what the problem was before, I was missing a prerequisite
    I assume. Whatever it was, it got installed when I installed the list of prerequisites from the magicka web site.

    Paul runs the fsxnet league so he'll have to set you up.

    Hello apam!

    I'm working on setting up Galactic Dynasty on my MBSE system running under Slackware64 14.2 (kernel version 4.4.132.) I've got it built and installed, but it segfaults when trying to read the door.sys. Any ideas?

    Hello apam!

    A couple things I've noticed with 1.7.0-fsx:

    1. After defeating Queen Mapa, I still occasionally get asked to pay tribute to her at the beginning of my turn.
    2. Immediately after I defeated Queen Mapa and logged out of the game, GalacticDynasty maintenance started segfaulting. (I call GalacticDynasty maintenance in my BBS door script to make sure that score updates get sent out after players play the game.) After a couple of times deleting the inuse.flg and running GalacticDynasty maintenance, it cleared up.
    3. Pirate attacks seem to do excessive damage. I've noticed pirate attacks close to wiping out all of my military, plus destroying thousands of planets.

    Regards,

    Andrew

    Paul;

    I have been out of the BBS scene so long, I do not know what version of Galactic Dynasty there is.

    As well, I probably missed out on the File Posting...

    Could you Hatch out the latest fsx_Net Inter-BBS version as well as the current BBS.CFG?

    I will try to run it under my Quazar BBS Door Game Server (GameSrv).

    Many Tanx.

    It appears that I didn't get a reset packet here when everyone else reset. I'll manually reset my game here; everyone else can have a little head start.

    Hi Paul,

    Just want to check - you are not getting Galactic Dynasty packets from me?

    From what I can see, it is generating "Recon" packets, but I dont see them being created (unless they are going out before I catch them)...

    But I do see an "error" file in my GD dir - the same timestamp as the log, however, it is a zero sized file...

    So I'm thinking its broke.

    Anybody else got Galactic Dynasty running on a Pi?

    Yup, had it running for awhile.. but then I moved the BBS off of the Pi over
    to a 64bit Linux box.. I need that Pi for something else because it has heat sinks.. my other Pi doesn't so I had to sac the Mystic/Pi .. Amiberry really heats up the Pi and without sinks it'll fry

    Just wondering... GD on your website is not Interbbs activated.. Just wondering why. It's cool if not, just wondering...

    Oh I saw you logged on to the Game Server but it was my older game

    Hello everyone!

    Question anyone running Galactic Dynasty on SBBS?

    Sure would like to know the config for it. Only reason being I play it a lot.

    It (Galactic Dynasty 1.0-dev) was pretty easy to install:

    Name Galactic Dynasty
    Internal Code GALACTIC
    Start-up Directory ../xtrn/GalacticDynasty
    Command Line GalacticDynasty%. -D %f
    Clean-up Command Line
    Execution Cost None
    Access Requirements
    Execution Requirements
    Multiple Concurrent Users Yes
    Intercept I/O No
    Native Executable Yes
    Use Shell to Execute No
    Modify User Data No
    Execute on Event No
    Pause After Execution No
    BBS Drop File Type Mystic DOOR32.SYS
    Place Drop File In Node Directory

    This configuration works for both Win32 and Linux Synchronet installs.

    However (Apam, are you here?) if you run both OSes (as I do, with Vertrauen) for
    some reason the user's created on the Win32 instances aren't seen/reused on the
    Linux instances, even though both users appear in the created "users.db3" file.

    Hi all.

    I have been working on adding Jan and UnderZaNet to the inter-league game.

    There is a new BBS.CFG file being sent to you that should land in your inbox, please drop this in to your GD directory

    Jan. You need to create a file box for the 21:1/10 echonode so packets placed in there by GD will be sent to the 1/10 HUB for processing.

    You also need to set your galactic.ini file as follows

    [snip]


    [Main]
    Turns Per Day = 20
    Turns In Protection = 60
    Log Path = c:\path\to\your\galactic\logs

    [Interbbs]
    Enabled = true
    System Name = UnderZaNet BBS (21:2/108)
    League Number = 21
    Node Number = 5
    File Inbox = c:\pathto\mystic\echomail\in
    Default Outbox = c:\pathto\oubound\filebox\

    [snip]

    Andrew can correct me if I'm wrong.

    You will also need to run maintenance on a regular basis.. check the docs for more info and/or sing out for help here and the guys will guide you :)

    e.g. GalacticDynasty.exe maintenance

    For now there will be GD game packets being created at 1/10 HUB for your
    system but I will set them to HOLD so they will only come across to your BBS when you poll. I can CRASH them when you give the word.

    Best, Paul

    BTW, I think this will be the first test of adding someone to an already running game with the new game_id code. Hopefully it will work! I have a
    few ideas what might go wrong and if they do how to solve them, but as
    long as no one is making packets with incorrect game_ids, it should got according to plan.

    OK coolio, let's give it a whirl.

    I'm not sure what versions folks are running right now but from memory the inter-BBS version is build 100

    Perhaps it's time to update soon?

    Possibly, I just made some really big changes with sprockets and ore
    instead of money for industrial and ore planets.

    While I'm pretty keen to, and it seems to be working, maybe a few more
    days just to see how the testing goes.

    So far I'm liking the changes as it seems to make the game more
    challenging, so you don't get tonnes of money anymore.

    There is a new BBS.CFG file being sent to you that should land in your inbox, please drop this in to your GD directory

    I've got the correct on in place here. :)

    You also need to set your galactic.ini file as follows

    Log Path = c:\path\to\your\galactic\logs

    I'm glad you posted this. I didn't have that line in my galactic.ini file.
    When I would upgrade the game, I would copy mine into the directory, so I wouldn't have to edit it again... :)

    Somehow I missed that one... :) It is a great idea. The log files can get a
    bit 'out of hand'...

    Andrew is just an awesome, all-around guy! I just wish I had a portion of the programming knowledge he did... (and ANSI talent...) ;)

    Yeah, Paul's good at coming up with ideas :) The log path is actually
    optional, if it's commented out or not there it will just dump log files
    in the current directory like it used to.

    *blush* well thankyou. speaking of ansis did you get the one I sent you?
    not sure if it worked as it might have been while your bbs was doing
    strange things.

    He really is good at it. :) As soon as I saw the message Paul posted, I added it to my galactic.ini file. There really are a lot of log files created...

    Yes, I did get it. Thank you! I've never had someone make an ANSI screen for
    me before... :)

    Yeah, I make a new one each day, I did that on Magicka because they get
    rather long with the built in webserver logging everything that's
    accessed, and having them split up by day seemed to help find things. I
    just copied the log code to galactic dynasty, which doesn't log as much,
    I could switch it to use a single log file.

    Yes, I did get it. Thank you! I've never had someone make an ANSI screen for me before... :)

    Oh cool. I have to think up some more ansis to draw, I'm just doing it to practice, I did one for you, gary and paul. I get a bit nervous making
    them for others, because I wonder if they might think that I think they
    need new ansis (which I don't) They probably don't but I tend to over
    think things a lot lol.

    Avon,

    I am under the impression that Galactic Dynasty is now a part of fsxNet (or at least support) and the game has gone InterBBSing. Is this correct? Pardon me, I have not been following along as I should be. It is very interesting that apam got his game to work InterBBSingly <g>. I too, at some would like my door game Legion RPG to support IBBS. Any leads would be great.

    Hi Jon

    I wrote up an article on fsx wiki a little while ago that sort of goes over what I did in galactic dynasty. There's no code in the article but you can always grab the galactic dynasty source off github if you want to see how it works closely.

    the article is here:

    I'll be doing some work on it over the next 24 hours or so :)
