  • Reset number of nodes

    From Andy Gorman@1:229/426.52 to All on Mon Oct 11 10:11:14 2021
    Is there a way to reset the number of available nodes? At one point, I had set mine to be 99 and I'd like to bring that down to a more presentable 4.

    Thx

    In the DATA directory, nuke MULTNODE.DAT and files NODE5.DAT to NODE99.DAT.

    Goto your data dir and delete each nodex.dat you don't want.

    Thanks, Nick. That did the trick.
