Just wondered if you are still looking at this problem.(If it is a problem)

I have just had a game killed by "Player2 has already played this turn" Happened really close to the end, V frustrating. I have the files and will send you my password and ask my opponnent to do the same if you are still collecting suspect game files.

Send the files and the passwords and well see if anything can be found. I also need to know that both games are in the standard file path the game installer suggested when you were extracting it. If they are not, don't bother sending the files

However, here's something one of our playtesters found on the 'net that may help you. I haven't tested this personally becasue I've never had the "Player2 has already played this turn" problem

Basically, the game is telling us that the current turn has already been played. You may have exited the session or closed your turn.
However the file will not reopen.

If we did not zip our turn beforehand we will need to replay the file if your opponent also receives the same message.
To do so simply unzip your opp's previous turn send in the slot.
Then open it with your password. Be sure to end this turn immediately.

Now retrieve your opponents most current send and place it in the slot. Open the file with your password. You can now play out your turn without trouble, but be sure to end your turn and to zip it instantly for sending.

You may delete the .DAT file to avoid accidentally trying to reopen your file. Be sure though to leave the .CMT file in the slot so that when the game is open you can tell that there is a game currently running in that slot.

This works for both WinMBT and SPMBTver3.1 Relax your game is still good.

One warning though. Be careful with the above procedure. It causes your turn report opens-closes-fails to miscue.
