Re: [pbmserv-dev] quoridor 4 player?

[Douglas Zander <dzander@solaria.sol.net>]

I looked at the code and let me tell you, it will be *very* hard
to change it as it is.  Sorry, but I don't think I'll be messing
with it.  I would like to have functions that are general purpose
but unfortunately, the quoridor program was written for one purpose
and one purpose only, to play two-player only.  I believe a total
overhaul of the program would be required to make it an optional
2 or 4 player game.
