Tir na n'og is EA i believe ? May be you meant Eriu but vfb wanted to try it. Unless vfb switch back to C'tis ?

Re: Aran
 

Oh....I didn't know..It sounds from his post he wanted C'tis. OK...I'll be Ulm instead.

Heh, I started reading this thread after I found it via the map download in the new game you're starting... very informative!

Good, I have these in my game aswell and I'm surprised that they do anything even if you didn't intend to have them as victory condition. How come that do they pop up on the map? Can they be turned off at all?

Heh, you know what, I used the exact same thing when I wrote my MP Game statistics PHP script which is being used in my game and Velusion's games. I made a couple of guesses about the game purely by looking at the game files, but because of a few quirks I later had to settle for workarounds: Save the *.2h file sizes for comparison instead of looking at the timestamps, and looking at the scores.html files to determine if a nation has been defeated (dominion 0). I no longer need this filesystem-based method since I found on this board how to request the turn status from the server remotely just like the client does nowadays, though. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/smirk.gif

I poked at the vp a little bit, before real life got in the way.

It looked like they get added if you start the game as a server. Probably not if you start it as PBEM. It probably should get reported as a bug.

lch said:I tried to do this in the .map but it didn't help, I still got crowns:

#victorycondition 0

I'd love to do that! Is that what the scripts in your dom3stats-1.0.rar do now? If not, can you please point me to the thread?

Re: Newb Network EA Aran (Full)
 

I'm still working on it, it will take some more days to release. I have working proof-of-concept code, though. At the meantime, you could use the filebased version. I intend to make them compatible with each other in a sense that you can plug the socket-based code where you were using the filesystem-based code before and vice versa.

I've got the link to the thread where JK describes the communication protocol from MarcinM who created the Dom3 Status monitor which I "fixed" for Linux/Mono. WraithLord programmed a command-line interface coded in Python, too, which is sadly only released in binary format.

Thanks, Ich!

Re: Newb Network EA Aran (Full)
 

Will this be getting it's own thread?

Re: Newb Network EA Aran (Full)
 

If you mean vfb's new game, then yes, he already has a new thread. Or do you mean my "remote PHP stats" script?

EDIT: Nevermind, I noticed that you're already playing in that game aswell. How many games are you playing simultaneously?? I'm limiting myself to four, and it already makes my mind boggle. You should restrict yourself to playing fewer games and doing more awesome write-ups! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Newb Network EA Aran (Full)
 

All i really have time for are turns it seems. I try not to over think my games so my turns generally go quick. My write-ups take several hours a piece, and those are short compared to the other crap I write. I think I'm playing four right now, with two more possibly atarting soon. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
