Windows Server Questions

I think you also shouldn't use the ipaddr switch: That's for clients, and makes no sense on a server. Perhaps it will not crash if you leave that switch out.

Me, for my hosting, I use:
dom2 -imqsST --port XXXX GameName

I tried using your command line and it still exits after a few seconds. I played around with the different options and its the quickhost that is making it quit. If I leave -q in it will exit, but if I take it out it will run normally.

Any idea why quickhost would make it exit? Isn't it just supposed to generate the next turn and sit there?

How many players are in this game? If there's only one player, then the game ends because that player has won, thus ending the game.

Hahah! Yeah I did have only one player cause I was just testing out the multiplayer stuff. I thought I had all the command line settings right so that must be it. I'll try it again with 2 clients hopefully that should work.

Yeah norfleet, that was it. I got two clients connected and it works fine. Much thanks for the help!
