Hi, I've been lurking the autohost community for several years, but I'd like to throw in my full support for helping any Stars!-related projects to come alive.

I came here looking for a dissemination of the file structure...
That, right there, is the plan. ATM it's just me muddling along as I can...which isn't particularly fast but, unlike the shoulders I'm stomping on, I'm making it available as I go via the wiki. Send me an email (link at the bottom of this post with your email and I'll share the folder with you Smile...it doesn't really give you much extra info besides my work in progress stuff, though you will be able to see exactly how slow I am Wink

... so as to interface with a true web application that would allow autohost games to operate seperately from any particular admin's attention (e.g. w/o sending emails to Ron Miller and eliminating tedious steps when starting and joining games); it'd essentially be a completely new hands-free online web application that would allow users to create and join games while monitoring all of the relevant information.
I think Ron's hashed out this idea before...dunno...aside from actually playing the game, you don't need an API to do this anyway as you can create games from a definition file, which could be generated by a web service easily enough.

Let me know if there's anything I can do to help organize the project (e.g. project management systems, dev hosting, etc).
