Well, if you aren't having players persistently try to get past the Waiting for Game data screen by killing the process and trying to reconnect for at least 5 or 6 times in a row then you are missing a solution that works for many of us most of the time.

But the more important question I suppose is was it really necessary for you to come across as a know it all *** in your reply? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif If you have alternate information there are better, more polite ways to communicate it than the terse slap down approach you chose to use - which this community is largely devoid of and most of us would like to keep that way.

That's a workaround, a kludge, not a solution.

He gave the information. He didn't use any bad words. He didn't insult anyone. What's your problem? That he didn't say "Golly gee, did you know that there might be another way of doing things" and go on and on at saccharine length?

Take a deep breath. I think you've misinterpreted the meaning of archaeolept's reply, and I'm sure you've misinterpreted the tone.

He meant that the game owner - the person who set up the game on the mosehansen server - has the option to stop and restart the game process that's running on the server. The "waiting for game" data problem is one that many of us have run into at some time. Restarting the game on mosehansen generally fixes it.

Problem: I can't connect to a game.

Until yesterday evening there haven't ever been any problems but this evening my Dom 2 can't connect.
My game, ar dom2.mosehansen.dk is at port 230l. Dom 2 hangs on "waiting game info".

Any clues?
Thanks

Now it goes all well. I reinstalled the game. i don't know if it was my game or perhaps Mosehansen was down.

It's a well known problem, which has nothing to do with my server. My server hasn't been down for some time now.

Could you tell me a link or a keyword to find the appropriate thread for this well known problem?

Thank you

Well, this thread is one such. Otherwise, try "waiting for game info". The solution is to kill the client, restart and tryagain. Supposedly, it also help to restart the game on the server. Also supposedly, this may have been fixed in 2.14. Sorry for being so blunt.

Dry Lands is finished, now its slot can be probably reused for some new game.
