A multi-player game is usually played over e-mail or an IRC chat server by exchanging turn files between the players and a host.The following are links are a good start if you're looking for more info Stars Home Page Stars Mailing List Stars on IRC Stars Site What is Stars TurnXChangeThe Stars TurnXChange is a system I’m developing that will allow a web server to take over hosting portion of the game.The reasoning for this system is that the classic e-mail method is slow and tedious. The game host often waits for turns to be submitted to him, generates a turn and then emails them back out to the other players. IRC blitz games are on the other side of the spectrum. People have devote 5-6 hours together to play a Stars! game. It’s difficult to play a large game to an end due to scheduling constraints. The idea of the Stars! TurnXChange is that people can submit their turns to the server, which will get generated and posted for retrieval when they are all submitted. The amount of turns generated per day can be totally dependent on the speed that people wish to submit their turns. |
