Hi,

Thank you for your answers.

I've tried switching to BBSTYPE QUICK and DORINFOx.DEF, but the result is the
same.

My settings in scfg are:

========================================
Name                       Railroad Empires 2
Internal Code              RRX2
Start-up Directory         ../dos/apps/rrx
Command Line               rrx2game /PD:\ /N%#
Clean-up Command Line
Execution Cost             None
Access Requirements
Execution Requirements
Multiple Concurrent Users  Yes
Intercept I/O              No
Native Executable          No
Use Shell / New Context    No
Modify User Data           No
Execute on Event           No
Pause After Execution      No
BBS Drop File Type         RBBS/QuickBBS   DORINFO#.DEF
Place Drop File In         Node Directory
========================================

in RRX2.CTL, the settings are (all lines without ; at the beginning):

========================================
SYSOPFIRST FREE
SYSOPLAST COPY
BBSNAME BBSFiles.com
BBSTYPE QUICK
FOSSIL
PAUSECODE @PAUSE@
========================================

I'm using the dosemu FOSSIL.COM, and have set BUFFERS=40 and FILES=60, as the
README for this game says that more are needed...?!

After this screen, it quits silently:

@xbit: Is your BBS up again so I could test the game in your BBS? Thank you!
