SEIV: Play by Web

[Admiral]

Quite a few updates to Play by Web this week.

The system is now very stable, and as long as the Users stay within the parameters of the bugs in the current 1.30 Version, works quite well (that is, don't upload corrupted .plr files or the wrong turn).

The system now has many administrative capabilities and unusual circumstances should be more easily resolved.

I would say the system is ready for primetime, but until the command line se4.exe problems are fixed, it will have to stay in beta.

I hope this is useful to the community, and I appreciate your support to date.

Thanks,

Admiral

The Play by Web server is now fully functional!

It can recover from almost all errors by the se4.exe program, a contributor (Georgig) wrote a work-around "auto-click" program, and administration is fully functional.

The system is almost ready to leave Beta stage and enter Gamma or even limited production.

Lots left to do on the "to do" list, but they're increasingly only "nice to have" rather than "must have" features.

Cheers,

Admiral

Does this mean it works with the 1.35 patch??
Or is it still 1.30 only??

1.35 does not work. This is not something that can be worked around; it is simply completely broken, rather than inconvenient.
