[Tinymux] function invocation limit

Okay, back up a second-



You say this file is 'eternalnights.conf', yes?  before, you had mentioned
netmux.conf.  What exactly are we dealing with here?


In the file 'mux.config', is the GAMENAME variable set to 'eternalnights'?
If this is NOT the case, and GAMENAME is set to 'netmux',  this conf file
will not be used.

If this IS the case, you have a potentially serious issue on your hands,
in that the database filenames are out of sync between mux.config and
eternalnights.conf.  mux.config defines several filenames using GAMENAME
as the base, but in the file you included, files are using 'netmux' as the
base.  A situation like this can lead to a loss of data.



If you decide to you change GAMENAME in mux.config, you need to first
create the new <gamename>.conf file, usually by copying or renaming the
netmux.conf file. But you *also* need to edit the new file to change all
instance of 'netmux' to the new GAMENAME setting.


Where you have:


> input_database data/netmux.db
> output_database data/netmux.db.new
> crash_database data/netmux.db.CRASH
> game_dir_file data/netmux.dir
> game_pag_file data/netmux.pag


It should be:


input_database data/eternalnights.db
output_database data/eternalnights.db.new
crash_database data/eternalnights.db.CRASH
game_dir_file data/eternalnights.dir
game_pag_file data/eternalnights.pag





So... either mux.config has GAMENAME=netmux, and you use netmux.conf for
your game config.... or mux.config has GAMENAME=eternalnights, and you use
eternalnights.conf with the appropriate database names.

What, then, is your GAMENAME set to?
