When it asks for a port number, put in the port number you want instead of 0. A number like 4000 or so is okay, if you didn't have anything already in mind.

Set the world.status var during the game. I like to use a proc for this, and I call it whenever I want to change the information.
var/version = 1
// set these at startup or during first login
var/mob/gamehost
var/gamehost_key

proc/WorldStatus()
var/txt = "-= Version [version] =-"
if(gamehost) gamehost_key = gamehost.key
if(gamehost_key == "Dtroys")
txt += " ~Main Server~"
else if(gamehost_key)
txt += " {Host: [gamehost_key]}"
world.status = txt

3 - also i want to know how to make my walking man slower

New()
walk_rand(src)

Add a delay to walk_rand() by using the next argument. walk_rand(src,10) is pretty slow.

yeah thats what i really wanted and i was trying to do that for past 3 days..

the port thing is annoying me.

i want to make a URL instead of my IP add and port number

some thing like:

byond://DragonballBLAHBLAH.Dtroys:4000

how do i do that friend?

You'll need to use Dantom.HostServer to host your BYOND game on a remote server - prefereably a Linux box. Nadrew, Digitalmouse, BovanDark, and AirJoe sometimes offer hosting to BYOND worlds (all but AirJoe's cost some money for server charges, etc). I'm also lining up another service that may provide more expensive professional BYOND world hosting than any of the above small-potatoes hosts above can.

The proc and vars I wrote were global. You can put them anywhere.

WorldStatus() would make sense to call during Login()--at least for the host--and the gamehost var would be set before that.

Small potatoes?? I find that sort of funny, because Digital mouse has nice systems from what I know. Me myself I have a home network with cheap prices for people who want small projects hosted without much cost as well a head up the hosting department for http://www.nct-it.com which we have 5 main servers in the network cluster where the minimum machine is P3 1.8 with a gig and a half ram. Not to mention the countless drones in the cluster 63 of them i believe it is running a mixed network of debian linux and windows 2003 machines with an unlimited bandwith (connection is numerous T1's)...... So if people like us are small potatoes, then i'd like to see what you have up your sleeve. Also if you have somthing on the go why is it that you are getting me to host that project for you? Which you still need to figure out why it won't work....
