This howto is also available from my other site, www.totaldomination.nl, but heh, I need to fill this up…
And due to the fact no one ever reads the howto on TD, I’ll just post it here, perhaps it will help me, getting less people to mail me with questions.
If ya want to read it, click the button below:
Well, I guess you worked out what the dutch word for continue to the rest is 
.
The rest of the pages are like this:
Page 2: Requirements and file functions
Page 3: Setting up the database and the game
Page 4: Ticker (1)
Page 5: Ticker (2)
Page 6: Debugging & blah blah
Page 7: Changelog & other stuff
Hi there I followed your guide which is ofcourse fantastic just one minor problem I have run the tick.sh but on my server it says that the ticks stopped is there something that I can consider looking at thanks

edit by author: I\’ve mailed you
love your guide it got me through the sticky bits just got a question though I was curious as to whether you have the formula or a guide to running the ticker under cron job as I am running the game on a hosted server and they have cron jobs.
I hope to hear from you soon as to the whether you have a guide or if you know where I can get one.
Cheers
DarkPhantM: If you have SSH rights as well (like with some cPanel / Direct Admin servers), you first have to compile the ticker, after which you’d get something like:
Before ticker start, run the following in shell:
touch ticker/ticker.end && touch ticker/ticker.run.timer
Crontab entry:
*/5 * * * * ticker/ticker ticker/mypa.cfg
If you want to end ticker, comment crontab entry, and run the following:
rm ticker/ticker.end && rm ticker/ticker.run.timer && rm ticker/ticker.run
If you have any questions, please, let me know, and I’ll answer by e-mail
