Wondering if I can setup my asss to come up as 2 different zones on the download list, but goto the same zone (just different arenas). So if you hit esc a after entering battlezone you can also see battleball and go there through battlezone (since it's the same zone)

so entering battlezone would take you to the subarena 'battlezone' upon entering and entering through battleball will take you to the arena 'battleball' upon entering

Yeah. You need to load ap_multipub and edit global.conf. This should work, but I didn't test it.

Code: Show/Hide [Listen] Port = 5000 ConnectAs = battlezone [Listen1] Port = 5002 ConnectAs = battleball [Directory] Server1 = ... ... [Directory-battlezone] Name = blah Description = blah [Directory-battleball] Name = blah Description = blah

And just a side note, in Pirates! I am using "ConnectAs =" (it's blank), this makes publics split when they become too full. There is a side effect that it starts at public 1 instead of 0, which can confuse chatnet clients.

THANKS! but how do i tell it to ?go battleball upon entering through battleball zone and ?go battlezone when entering through battlezone?

[Smong]

Perhaps I should have explained it, the [Listen] sections let you specify a port for each "zone", the ConnectAs setting defines what arena you will appear in when you try and enter the zone. The [Directory] sections let you change the name and description per "zone".

So I guess short answer, ConnectAs is what tells the client to go to battleball or battlezone.

ROCK ON! Thanks Smong.
