New Server: javatrek.org port 1764

Written by  on January 8, 2023

There is now a new second instance of the game!

Go to http://mtrek.com/javatrek-org-port-1764/ for more information, or join the game via:

TELNET javatrek.org 1764

The port 1764 game hosts a somewhat less-modified fork of the JavaTrek engine. It has only the standard Multi-Trek and JavaTrek ships that were available from 1994-2012. There are fewer bots, and future plans include adding some tutorial-type features to help players (re)familiarize themselves with the game.
