Default Re: Restart on MA Abandoned Game - Started

Whoa, I just got this from llamabeast:

Quote:
Hi. On trying to host Abandon just now, Dominions crashed. This is not a LlamaServer issue, but rather Dominions itself crashed with a "Nagot gick fel" error.

These errors are normally caused by a (generally inexplicable) problem with one of the players' 2h files. Therefore the LlamaServer moved all your 2h files away before hosting again. This is why you will receive a new turn file in which you've staled.

There are two options from here. Either you can treat the stale turn as a random event and carry on with the game, or you can roll back the turn and try to host again. If you try the latter your game admin will have to do the rollback via the admin options on the LlamaServer website, and you will all have to do your turns again. Note that in this case it is _really important_ that you actually do redo your turn, rather than just sending in the same one again (which people sometimes seem to do because they don't believe me). If you just send in the same file, hosting will simply fail again.

I hope you manage to get the game back on course, whichever option you go for.

I'm good with whatever Pythium, Man, and Bandar want to do. We might want to dispel Utterdark at some point since it's actually blowing up Dominions 3... the last turn that actually managed to host was pretty buggy (in terms of many battles not being seen, I'm guessing because my message buffer couldn't handle them all) and I'm guessing this one might also crash, but I guess we'll see.

It might be good to not spend a huge amount of time on a redone turn that might just crash the server again...
