Is there a "master switch" for auto-processing of turns? If there is one, is it turned off? "Slugfest 12" has "Fully Automatic" key turned on, but will not execute manually.

Tks!

Thanks for looking at it,

Ok. That makes sense. You are correct. The workaround is to mark them dead, then go to the game admin screen and hit the "update options" button.

We'll get that fixed agian.

Yes there is, and yes it is. Games will run when all players upload, or when the game owner hits the "execute the next turn" button from the game admin screen. Once we feel confident of the reliability of th eserver we will turn the automatic processing back on.

Tks, geo, for clarifying why Arch runs automatically and Slugfest 12 does not.

Hey Geo, I go to try to boot a couple players from the game I'm hosting and I get a 500 Error. Just thought I'd let you know so if it's a bug you can fix it when you take the server offline tonight. Thanks.
