I was wondering what your handle on this board was...

A game I created on mosehansen (Cradle of Uncivilization) has an anonymous nation I've been trying to boot before starting the game. (The result of someone uploading two pretenders.)

Using the "Kick all anonymous players" option isn't kicking the player off (5 attempts now). Nor is it restarting the game as it says it will, though this is perhaps a result of the game not being started yet (it's still in an open state).

The nation (Jotunheim) is also the only one that doesn't display an md5 value, which makes me wonder if there's something ... screwy with the nation / pretender?

Anyways - anyone know if it's safe for me to start the game, _then_ trying kicking Jotunheim? Or using the master password to remove it?

Thanks.

Did you try stopping the game, kicking the anonymous players, and then restarting the game and seeing if the player appears in the server list?

The fact that he has no md5sum anymore suggests that he has been DELETED!

Eh - you can't kick anonymous players while the game is stopped. When the game is stopped, the only option is to restart.

Ah well - guess I'll start the game, and trust I'll be able to kick / delete once the game is running if need be.

Bah. Despite the lack of an MD5 value, and despite the repeated attempts to kick anonymous players (which did kick the pretender I set to anonymous), Jotunheim (anonymous) is still in the game.

I guess the best I can do is set it to AI, then?

The reason Jotunhiem had no md5sum and couldn't be kicked was that I had configured the masterdata wrongly... the filename was incorrect.

I has been fixed now. You'll have to AI now that the game has been started.

It may be a good idea to send problems directly to me, or at least an alert. I do check this thread, but not every day
