as a better explination as I understand it
Code:
start zone.exe . 24.175.75.83 7995 192.168.1.2
In this example the "." is a wile card...you type #zone halas from NK.
you have a zone up for NK (your in it) when you type #zone halas world looks for a zone that is aval to boot up "." will allow that zone to become any zone thats needed.
Code:
start zone.exe Halas 24.175.75.83 7997 192.168.1.2
Will keep halas up even if there isnt anyone in the zone, BUT it wont allow this zone to become any other zone.
