PBW Status

Looks like there is a bug perhaps on the PBW site - when I delete a player from my game because they are dead, this player keeps coming back into the game and the game is waiting a turn from them. The game is Maelstrom and the player happens to be myself. I believe this worked ok before so I am guessing the restore didnt include this bug fix?

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.

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!

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.

Ok, gonna take it down for a while this evening to see if I can get those previous bug fixes operational again. Not right this minute. Giving you a few hours warning this time.

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.

Rags, what game? Is it happening every time or is that an intermittant thing? DOes it boot the player but then gives you an error trying to take you back to game info, or is it not bootin them?

Whoops sorry, I was going to give more detail but got distracted.
The game is Return to Hell. And it will not boot them at all. I go to kick player and it asks if I'm sure I want to, I press yes and then the bottom frame goes to a 500 error. Here is what the error says:

Error: 500

It does it everytime I try to boot them. I've tried a few different times now.
