GG Johnarryn, been a great war against your Abysian armies - mostly Yomi and I losing battles in various (fiery) ways.

As for the gems - I didnt notice, but can check...

I seem to have lost several as gems.

So, while admin is missing, I'll try to write Llamabeast...

Hmm, very strange. I've had a good poke around, but there's no sign of anything untoward, so I'm stumped frankly.

I did a lot of work on the LlamaServer last night, and I was a bit tired, so it's possible I did something funny. However, the good news is that I've now completely finished work on the server itself - I managed to tick off every single feature on my to-do list (still a bit more to do on the web server, but that's separate). So I will hopefully never again have to manually go poking through files, and since I often seem to cause mayhem when I do that that should definitely be a good thing. Indeed, I am crossing my fingers for the rate of issues on the server falling to about zero, because it can now cope with lots of messy things all by itself and should be self-sufficient now.

However, even if I _did_ go bananas and do something weird to Strolling last night, I don't think there's anything I could do to make you lose gems. The only way to get this kind of weirdness in general is if a game is rehosted and someone uses the wrong instance of a trn file to take their turn. I don't think that's possible here.

I should perhaps explain that all the LlamaServer does, so far as Dominions is concerned, is put all the files for a game in the same folder and run Dominions. So there is very little room for subtle errors.

Right, so the net result of all that rambling is - I don't think I can do anything, sorry - hope it doesn't cause problems. I can't imagine how it could be a server issue, but apologies just in case I made some bizarre bungle.

I don't think neither it's server related. This would be weird.

Also I noticed some random event on one province (Bandar Kadek : 77) :

Quote:

A master thief has stolen many of your magic gems.

The province is not really mine : TC owns the castle, I was just passing through the province, Abysia conquered it just after my armies left it. Anyway, there is no lab in the province allowing access to my gem stock. The commanders I had in that province didn't owned any gem.

Hence, it may be a bug related to this random event. Did you guys had that kind of event this turn ?

Now that you mention it... yes, I did. There were just so many messages that I DID miss it... It also was the only event as such this turn. Sorry for false alarm. :ashamed:

Damn theives..I wonder who they work for *TC is hiring*

Unfortunately, there is no way to implement this in the game as far as I know. A real pity - I would like to use this in my ongoing 1001 Nights mod project... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
Another thing - I won't be able to play for about 2 weeks starting next Tuesday: I'm being send off for a field work, where I won't have a gaming computer (though I'll probably manage to appear on forum from time to time). But I think I can find a sub before that...

Re: EA Game Strolling, part 2 - Looking for 2 more

Sorry to see you go johnarryn. I hope everything is alright.

Re: EA Game Strolling, part 2 - Looking for 2 more

As I haven't found the sub for now and it seems that Kadelake would also be away, maybe we should pause the game? What everyone thinks?
