New & raw web based Dominion II game server

I think this is a question interesting to all of us: Can you give a date when you will patch the server, Esben?

Or is this flagged as "working on the server"?

How would that work for games that are in midstream - would we be forcibly moved to 2.13? Or would there be an game option available?

The patch seems to be borked, so I cannot give you a date yet.
As usual, everyone is forcibly upgraded; but only when the games are restarted. Sorry for any inconvenience, but good stategist incorperates changes

It's been confirmed (in the thread Patch 2.13 available now) that certain artefacts that make extra commands available to their bearers are broken by the patch, and will cause the game to crash if used.

I think that's serious enough to hold off patching the server until it's addressed. Anyone agree?

I agree with Zap.

Does the server use cheat detection?

I've never used either of those items and can live without them, so I don't care.

I am a bit worried about what will happen to my huge stash of burning pearls in one game, though.

We need to determine whether we want the Version 2.13. enabled. Is cheat detection is always enabled, this is no work around. So we have to choose between

The old Version --- no mods, no Scratti and so on
The new Version, but using certain artifacts will get you unpopular.

What do you say, people? Mark and Zap seems to prefer staying put.
