streu in Re: Offline PHost game hosti...:

This also explains the following warning

I'm not sure how it does? shiplist.txt is present and everything works, PHost is just (correctly) warning that pconfig.src does not have entries for certain values and the default is being used. This looks like correct behavior to me.

Hmmm, PHost should not warn about things in shiplist.txt.

Does your host.log indicate that PHost is reading shiplist.txt? I just checked host.log from North Star 18, there it says "Using custom hull functions defined in 'shiplist.txt'". PlanetsCentral's games do not generate any such warnings.

SpaceLord inside DOSBOX

SpaceLord isn't playing nice. Running as spacelrd game01 /1 it starts ok then immediately crashes:

Processing data for turn number 1
Spacelord will play for The Solar Federation
INFO: Initialising MyPlan1.spl
INFO: Initialising MyShip1.spl
Runtime error 201 at 0909:13A9.

Any ideas?

Runtime error 201 is "Range check error". Could it be that SpaceLord does not like ships with more than 10 weapons?
