We've just opened a new RWL in complete Hebrew version!
there are over 200 israelis players and not much hebrew promisances...

our future goal is to combine the hebrew DB with English version and to make multiple languege selection...

we have server and sponsers and everything so far....

but...unfurtunally we have the most common problem in my opinion...

we have Crontab(Cronjobs) problems...

so..i would like to ask from all the proggramer who now's this to help us fix this 1 little problem...

("No Turns Yet!")..

i would apritiated if some1 would help us...

CAN YOU HELP US?... :blink:

There is a simple solution. FAF 2.0 does not require crons and is better than RWL (there are 5 holes in RWL that let an attacker entirely destroy or control the server). It can be downloaded here:
http://faf.staronesw.com/faf.zip
Its installer is automatic and painless, and it is highly configurable. Please try it and let us know how you like it.

While I CAN help you with cron-related problems, it probably is a much better idea to go with the FAF 2.0 code.

Feature list (now somewhat incomplete): http://faf.staronesw.com/?features&srv=1

The main problem with RWL is that it is very insecure. A couple friends and I ran a RWL-based server for over a year, and we had no end of trouble with bugs and a couple cases of hacking. From testing the code on that server, I KNOW that anyone can take complete control over the game and the web hosting account on the server.

Great! :)
And what's more, we've added several new features since then as well, which just didn't make it into the features list. I suggest you also sign up here and try it out for yourself. ;)

There is no "turns.php". Everything is done without crons. The only things you need to set up are config.php and possibly chmod "templates_c" to 777.

I have AIM, but I am so rarely on it it's best to ask us via our emails (on the Credits page) or via the forum... or forum PM. Sorry about that.
