We are going to need some more information from you before we can really help you.

What does the subgame server console say?
I think your problem is related to a bad connection with the biller.

Please read this: http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php/Server_Troubleshooting

ok here is what is says when I try to join. "Failed to connect to server. Check to make sure the server it online (it should appear yellow or green it the zone list) and that you are currently connected to the internet. If the problem persists, seek help at the tech support forums found at www.subspacehq.com."

PLEASE HELP!!!!

Are you connecting to your own server or to an existing server?
If you are connecting to an existing server then a firewall is probably blocking your connection.

There should be a message in your server console when starting the server or when you try to connect to it.
Copy/paste that here.

What's the // about?

Also, if you're running the biller on the same computer as subgame, then Billing:IP should be localhost.

But my suspicion is that your zone is actually red, you're just not giving it a couple seconds to change color.

ok everything is fine and the subbill and subgame2 say it should work.
maybe I am porting the wrong port. want it says add costum zone and you click on it what do you put in the I.P.?,and the port? do I put the misc I.P. ? and the misc port or what?
Smong - Thu Nov 30, 2006 6:15 pm
Post subject:
When adding it as a custom zone, for the IP I would put 127.0.0.1, port should be taken from server.ini Misc Port.

If you're just running a test zone don't worry about Misc ServerIP, you can leave that blank.

Replace _bzw.lvl with your own map or change DefaultLevelFile property in your server.ini to the new map name.

That probably means it can't find the map, either you spelled it wrong in server.ini or didn't put it in the same folder as subgame.exe.

Many things such as the ?warpto command use tile coordinates. These start with (0, 0) at the top left of the map and go to (1023, 1023) at the bottom right.


http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php/Tiles

so using
Code: Show/Hide

Spawn::Team0-X=512
Spawn::Team0-Y=512
Spawn::Team0-Radius=0
will make people always start in the center of the map

Bak's talking about asss.

If you're using subgame open up server.cfg with a text editor. Don't just paste in the new settings, see if they are already there, if so edit them. If the same settings are written twice there can be problems later.

If you want to have different spawns per freq then edit these [Spawn] settings:
Code: Show/Hide
[Spawn]
Team0-X=400
Team0-Y=400
Team0-Radius=8

Team1-X=600
Team1-Y=600
Team1-Radius=8

Otherwise if you want everyone to spawn around the center (most zones are like this) just edit [Misc] WarpRadiusLimit, the distance is in tiles.

Ok really simple answer:
Open server.cfg with a text editor. At the very top add these two lines:
[Misc]
WarpRadiusLimit=8

Save and close the file.

in your server's directory(folder), there is a file called server.cfg. Open it in notepad and put it at the top of that file.
