Recently I have been considering setting up online games for my friends & myself. This leads me to a couple of questions in regards to running Master Server & Server for online games.:
1) What are the functions the master server & server perform in relation to eachother?
2) Do both need to be running in order to host online play?
3) Does it matter which service is stated first, master server or server?
4) These both seem to be only supported on a linux platofrm, is this correct?
I have tweaked the python code in order to discover the IP address when running multiarch on Windows. It is not quite complere as I have to know the GUID if the network interface but it is functional by entering the GUID in the startup options but needs to be much cleaner. Assuming runing Master Server & Server on Windows is something diego50 & poilou are interested in I will be happy to share my code once it is a bit more polished.
Thanks,
Mike

hi Mike!!! I recently play cricket on windows ( 8 and 10) in the same lan using official poilou server.. The problem is when I want to create my own server, this I do not know how should be done...
