I would like to run a hedgewars server on my Linux server but dont have any xwindows and dont want to meet all the debian requirements. Is there/will there be a command line server only option. Then I could run it as a public server for anyone to connect and even iPhones when we get there!

Thanks

We're working on standalone server implementation. It requires protocol changes, and some frontend work. Our frontend developer is busy now, so no progress in that area soon.

Is there a communication reference that I can use to write one. I would love to help and generally its not that hard if you know what the network game is looking for in communication. I guess I could go to the trouble to sniff out the communication but its easier if you have a flowchart of the communication.

Thanks

It's not that easy, you should change much things in frontend's network code, as it doesn't support dedicated servers
