We need a configurable server port.

The ability to set the server port is the basis imho, not a feature.
Can't be to hard to code that in.
There are many people out there trying to run multiple servers on the same machine but atm that's not possible :/

thanks

#1: why would you want to?

why would you want to run multiple servers on one machine? One server with a fat pipe seems like it would be far more useful than a bunch've fractious servers.

I guess 100mbit is enough for more than one cube-server, lol.

IMHO having a fixed port for the official binaries is cool, it makes it easier both for the admin and users.

mod's can use other ports if needed, and running different Cube versions/mods on the same server is probably an interesting thing, but then it's trivial to change if you compile your own Cube :)

If what you want is only many servers for 2/3 ppl to have ppl play in many small groups on a LAN, maybe the best thing is running servers on the client PCs.
