 tm> I didn't find any clear docs on the game darkness. Did you?

I didn't.  But I've been able to get Darkness to run.
There's a batch file, START.BAT, and in there, I saw that it has this command:

DARKNESS.EXE /N%1

So it looks like you can pass the command-line argument /N with the node number.  In SCFG, I now have it set to run DARKNESS.EXE /N%# and it's working. Just be sure to run DARKCFG and configure the door with the drop file type and the location of the drop file. The location of the drop file should always be D:\ for all nodes when using dosemu. Currently I have it set to use DOOR.SYS for the drop file type.
