Index

PHost 4.1

Instructions

Hosts: replace the PHost program. Place the following in pconfig.src to make this version behave as close as possible to the previous one. However, we recommend not doing that, since that turns off new rules, and this version is there to try the new rules ;-)

% PHOST
AlternativeMinesDestroyMines = Yes

% PCONTROL
MinesDestroyMines = Skip

If you have used the default complete.src or tim-host.src, please check the settings for FighterSweepRate and FighterSweepRange. The files shipped with versions up to 4.0b were bogus. The settings should read FighterSweepRate = 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,20 instead of just 20 - the latter allows fighter-sweep for all players! The same goes for FighterSweepRange.

Players: update the PVCR program. PVCR 4.0a should be able to handle all PHost versions. Really :-)
