I normally play my turns on two different computers. All works fine, except for a little detail that you should take care about:

If you do a turn on machine A, then the turn is not available on the machine B. As a result, you cannot 'continue' the turn on the machine B, but you have to redo it completly.

Also, if you should then switch back to machine A, then our "outdated" turn will be uploaded directly on connection, overriding your changes from machine B.

So you see - it is a little bit tricky when you do the same turn on two different hosts.

I wanted to develop a tool that would allow you to easily check the status of a multiple servers without interfering with the uploaded turns. JK of Illwinter promised my on 2004-11-25 to give me some protocol specs to do it, but I have not heard from him since.

I'll be going away for the weekend and would appreciate if you could hold the turn after the current one until Sunday night, CET. If not, at least you all know why I'll stale ;-)

It will pause the game until you restart the server (which does NOT restart the the game from turn 1)

But a better way to give Knudsen his weekend off would be to set the time limit up to a couple of days and leave quickhost on. That way, the turn will run as soon as Knudsen gets back and puts in his orders.

Darn, that means we don't even see the results of this turn.

Isn't it possible to switch to only QH on Mosehansen?!
