Question about the battle replay bug

Norfleet · #1 March 18th, 2004, 09:57 AM

The only other potential solution I can think of would be to hire an independent technomancer, and have him cast "Hack Code", but this would require that you research up to technomancy 7 and empower or give him items that raise his Assembly skill to at least 5. You might have to ally with a nation that has researched technomancy 7 to get this done, if you yourself cannot afford to research technomancy.

In this thread the Illwinter guys announced that the bug was found and is fixed. Hopefully this will be in the next patch.

I recommend you only read the first page (or is it the Last page in this dominion) of the mentioned thread if you don't want to drown in technobabble...

Your solutions are either cast "Install Linux", which is Technomancy 3, or ask your host to host in Windows. Alternatively, you can suffer.

Argh! Then I must suffer. Technomancy level 0 chez moi. The thought of installing linux = heart attack.

Re-Question: Can a host who hosts linux *switch* to windows mid-game, or will that screw up the MP game?

Re-Question2: Is this something that can or could be fixed in an upcoming patch?

The potentially exact cause of this bug is now known to Illwinter, so it's possible that it could be fixed in the upcoming patch.

Ah great that is something I didnt understand from the former Posts. Good.

Whether it actually WILL be or not, is something that will only be known when the patch actually comes out.

For us finite beings, a tautology. For those with a privileged epistemological standpoint (IW), the question could conceivably be answered now.

Thanks both of you.
That means I can now
a) plague my host
b) wait and hope

Thanks
Empowerment = right out. Not enough blood slaves.
