Acornell.2522 net.games,net.general utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!duke!chico!harpo!vax135!cornell!sc Fri Feb 19 10:10:58 1982 sc We are planning to soon release sc (a game). The new version will be VAX and version 7 compatible and use curses. If you don't know what it is, we'll tell you in a few weeks in net.games. We would like to know about other sites that already have sc. If you are running it, please send mail to cornell!sc (perhaps decvax!cornell!sc) answering the following questions. 1) Are you still running the V6 version? 2) Was it hard to use non-Data Medias? 3) Have you installed any new features that we might like to include in our distribution? 4) Have you found the source of the infamous "combat deadlocks"? The last question is particularly important. We get a combat deadlock a couple times a year, and an expert is required to fix things. The first time I fixed it I spent a day and a half figuring out what to do. A program that is generally distributed should not require such assistance. Also I would like to know if any of the original implementors are on the net so that I could occasionally ask their opinions.
