Unit rebalance and pretender 2.2 right?

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Nm
Just Zens whole set.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Are we ready yet, or still need people to upload? I'm also hoping we start this tonight.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

4 more pretenders to be uploaded - hopefully the players check here tonight and don't wait until tomorrow. (Tien Ch'i's player took his turn this afternoon, and might not be checking again today. This is why I hate restarting non-blitz games.)

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

I repicked as ulm( I was TC) because Shmonk took Machaka

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Man uploaded.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Only waiting on Abysia now I think.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Sorry guys, I live in Russia and it's different time zone, you know. I was trying to sleep while you were uploading pretenders )). So Abysia is uploaded, sorry for the delay ((

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

It is not needed, no matter what you did to it. The .map file only creates the game, and sets the name of the .tga file... which incidentally allows the game creator to do some mischief with it. In KOTH, I used a theater6.map file, and everything worked fine without having it.

If you have changed the name of the .tga file, the players will have to do the same on their end, but that's the only problem I can think of.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Started at 10 AM Boston time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Ah, cool. I had thought that the .map file was at least required for the local client to know the neighboring province scheme.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

The neighbouring provinces seem to be kept in the .trn file themselves (explaining why turn files for turn 1 are already 36 kb big). I guess that's a good thing too, as otherwise a player could alter neighbouring provinces on the local computer... though it could be avoided by using a check of some sorts.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

I put you guys back on a 24hr timer. Let the turns flow...

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Added server / port information, and nations / players to the first post in the thread for quick easy reference.

And, we're only waiting on some Mainiac to take his turn. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

This Mainiac has taken his turn.

New turn up!

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

All turns uploaded except Pyth, it seems.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

And another turn has run.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Weird, when I played turn 2 today it seems my orders did not go through from turn 1. I had no new commanders, research, or units:(. Just more gold. Its not a problem though.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

You haven't been connecting from two separate machines, have you? I know that's bitten some other players in the past : connecting from a second machine, after already doing your orders, wipes out your orders if you then end your turn from the 2nd machine. ( I believe the reason is that the first machine has the orders in its .2h file, which is uploaded; the 2nd machine doesn't have turns entered, so uploads its own, empty, .2h file. )

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Nope

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Um - it just hosted, and you staled again. I'm guessing this is possibly your first hosted MP game? After you give your orders for the turn, you need to connect with the host in order for it to have your orders for the turn. When you're connected, you need to hit lower case 'e' in order to end your turn and send those orders. If you quit the game, your turn doesn't get uploaded.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

The only other time I've seen this is when a game is restarted and the game name is not changed. But I changed the name of your game every time I restarted it (thus the name Sunken_Restart2) that is being used now. Ribbon Blue, are you sure you are submitted your turns to the server?

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

OKay, I feel really stuped, here is what happened.
Connected to my faeren game turn 1,
Gave my orders
Reconnected to my faerun game turn 1 replaced my orders with out giving any new ones.
Connected to turn 2 on my Faerun game and found no units or mages or research, just more gold.
Posted HERE that my turn seemed to not gotten orders through.
Actualy staled on this game for 1 turn, I must have missed the deadline though, but it does not matter since I had already qued my recruiting and was going to do nothing but research last game.
Okay, so I figured it out!
But ya, I feel stuped.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Turn 7 is up.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Three hours to go, and RibbonBlue's Ulm is the only one whose turn hasn't been taken.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

It has come to my attention this game is on 24h.
Sry for staleing and keeping you guys waiting.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Is there any desire to change this game to something other than 24hr? I simply assumed you would stay at the normal pace until the game starts to slow down a bit.. say turn 25-30

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

No, its fine, I just did not see the post saying it was at 24h. Now that I know I am fine with it.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

New turn, not sure who if anyone staled.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

New turn just ran.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Just Ulm to go.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Turn is up (as of an hour or 2 ago).

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

New turn is up.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Hey, I just said that! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Heh. Just a minute apart. And now if Abysia checks in and takes a turn we'll have had a nice quick turn. Cross yer fingers, paws, tentacles, etc. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Sorry guys, traveling from Moscow to Nizhny to S-Petersburg so I fear I'll be able to take my turns only once a day next week ((

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Two hours to go, and ... Ulm hasn't gone yet.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

He's probably going to stale. It's RibbonBlue, and he did write something in another stream earlier this evening (The First Step game), so he might have forgotten this game. Or had problems like before. Oh well...

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

That makes at least 6 turns out of 12 that he's staled - I'm going to ask Ironhawk to set Ulm to AI.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

New turn, and yes Ulm staled, and will hopefully be AI soon.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Sorry Ironhawk, can you slow the game to 48h for the next week? I'll still try very hard to make turns every day, but it seems that it will be harder than I expected.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

I just seem to keep missing the time. Iv'e been taking what seems like every other turn. Its serverly annoying.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Argh!! I wake up this morning to find I'm the last one to take my turn. So as soon as it loads, I go to "quit without saving" so I can play it offline, and instead I hit end turn (still drinking my coffee, so not 100% awake. So I basically sat on my hands the last turn and did nothing for that turn. Dagummit!!

And I was about to take over the world, in that one turn no less! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Oh well, new turn is up.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Just so you understand : I'm asking the host to set your nation to AI, meaning that you won't be playing Ulm anyone, or should I say, won't be not playing Ulm and holding the game up.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Yes I understand that and I don't like it.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Since it seems the game is going to 48h for Dimaz this week, it probably wouldn't hurt to leave RibbonBlue in charge of Ulm. I would think that's better than AI.

Just my 3 1/5 cents.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Why do you keep missing turns, Ribbonblue? If we actually switch to 48h quickhost, would you be able to take your turns?

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

I think I keep missing turns cause of bad timming, which is why I missed half of my last turns.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

Bad timing? What's so difficult about checking a game once, or even twice, a day? If you can't be bothered to do yours turns when the turns only take 1-5 minutes, even after you were told about the issue, what's to indicate you'll ever show the consideration to the other players to take your turns?

I mean - you had the time to post on the forums on other game threads, while you had a couple hours left in which you could've done your turn. Did you? No. Obviously you were thinking about dominions, and had free time, but you continued to ignore taking your turns.

Re: Sunken_Treasure : New Shahrivar game on Moseha
 

I think Ribbonblue is relatively new to playing MP. Yes?

Ribbon: Aren't you able to check the status of the game at least once every 24 hours? I commonly check once in the morning and once at night. Are you sharing your computer with someone else, so that it is difficult for you to check in?
