    From Avon@21:1/101 to All on Tuesday, February 18, 2020 20:47:17
    Hi there

    A heads up I will hatch a new version of For Honour shortly to the FSX_DOOR filebase. In a few days time I will update the HUB and issue a reset for this game. I'm 99% sure this new version runs different packet specs to the old current one so nodes will need to shift to the new version to keep playing.

    Apam can talk to the changes :)

    Galactic Dynasty has been won so I am resetting this now. The new Game ID should be 73 after the reset.

    I have yet to work on a couple of new games coming soon to the inter-bbs
    scene but will announce those when I have made some progress :)

    Cool, I'll set up the new one.

    Still waiting on the rest of the setup for InterBBS games and Usenet BTW ;)
    I know you're a busy man. I've been setting up InterBBS on sciNet in the meantime ;)

    Yep, those just arrived here. Should we update now or wait until the hub
    is updated?

    I'll likely update the HUB in another 24 hours time, just working on getting Mystic A45 out and updating at my end, so when you opt to do it is up to
    you... but I'd suggest in the next 24 hours or so would be good :)

    What syntax to issue a reset and increase the game ID?

    c:\fsxuse\doors\fh>ForHonour.exe /reset 15
    '.' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.

    Just also FYI I'm seeing some SQL error when packets are processed.

    19:59:56 Performing maintenance...
    19:59:56 SQL error: no such column: hostpacketver
    19:59:56 Version Mismatch, is your game up to date? (Packet: 00001 vs Local: 00004) FROM Node: 8

    I'll look for the report.txt file when a few more packets land but at this stage it's not generated.. but it is early days

    Yeah sorry, you will need to delete the ibbs_info.db so it can recreate
    with all the tables.

    I should be all set up in for honour and in the usenet ftns. Packets look
    like they're flowing and I rescanned the last 250 of all the usenet bases i hooked up to.

    You can switch me to crash whenever, i should be G2G.

    Also should be ready to hook up the other 2 games :)

    Thanks Avon :D
