Re: Wierd battle results
 

I have had several inconsistencies lately, all since the last patch. I have no idea if that's significant. As far as I'm concerned, the battle report is the definitive version, and the replay is correct if I'm lucky.

Ah yeah well the battle report seems to be correct. It was just the replays in these instances that were not. However the other player was getting the same incorrect replay.

I never use to see these inconsistencies before the last patch. However, I might have missed a few.

Re: Wierd battle results
 

These have happened from time to time, but they are usually caused by different versions. Sometimes spesific spells were handled differently on different operation systems, sometimes the host had patched the game before the players had, etc.
I suggest figuring out:
1) What OS and version of Dominions the hosting computer has
2) What OS and version the players have. If there are more players in the game than you and your friend, please contact them and ask if they've noticed any inconsistencies.

The errors are happening in Fallacy(i am Reay's opponent). Velusion has the correct version of the gsme I am quite sure.

I also saw in the Manatee thread, which is on Lllamaserver, a similar complaint, and I know Llamaserver has the correct version of the game.

It is too early to tell, but a trend may be occurring. This bug, which has always existed, is occurring more frequently since the last patch, but only in the late game. And I stress the word may. It bears keeping an eye on.

Re: Wierd battle results
 

I am not sure what OS Velusion is running on but I assume it is Windows. I have been playing games on his servers for more than a year and never had a problem seemingly until now.

I will keep my eye on it anyway.

Re: Bug thread
 

A "Huge number of people have immigrated into this province" event is or may sometimes be too weak. After two such events on a capital which has not, at any point, been affected by Growth or Death scales or ever had any unrest or been patrolled, the capital in question has 30600 people. After the first even, there were 30350 or so people.

Re: Wierd battle results
 

Yes, Velusion is using Windows for hosting. I'm fairly certain that llamabeast's hosting server is using Linux.

Re: Bug thread
 

I completely agree... every time I see this event the "huge number of people" provide virtually no increase to the province. I've had this event hit my capital and hit small wastelands, yet no matter the location the increase is pointless.

Considering how many methods drop population it's too bad this event doesn't work as described within the event.

Re: Bug thread
 

The incorrect battle replay bug used to only (or at least mostly; maybe we assumed?) happen with different OS/version, but lately I've seen it even in SP, where the OS and version are obviously identical.

Re: Bug thread
 

Yeah, Xietor thinks this is not related to OS either. Xietor and I are both on Windows XP and Velusion's server is on WIndows XP so it seems like he is right.
