  • Pass node # for door?

    From Alpha@25:25/0 to All on Fri Aug 12 17:52:50 2022
    I feel really stupid for even asking, but I'm setting up a multi-node RG
    BBS (Win732/Net2BBS) and I'm trying to figure out how to pass the node #, or path to the drop file tempX folder, when setting up a door... What the heck
    am I missing?? Didn't see this in the docs.

    Oh, on a positive note, wanted to play around with a custom door, got DDPLUS + TP7 up and running on DOSBOX, boom, we have an .EXE! Still have to TPPATCH it, but it worked :)

    Rock on RG'ers.

    batchfile.bat %n

    %N is for node #.

    r; before the batch passes the REAL NAME.


    ... Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the bitstream.
