ahhh, great. That's the thing I really need.

Thanks Suicide.

How about to contact Malfador to include this tool within the next patch for SE4?

Hi Suicide,

I ve got a little problem with your tool.
If I use it to start my round none of my ships has any movement points left.

They can t move any time. If I load the same turn without the tool - all is ok and the ships will move their path or have movement points left.

The game is turn based.

Any idea?

Woah! Running SE4 using commandline parameters screws up sequential movement!!!

This is a major bug in SE4 v1.41, and you should definitely Email Aaron about it, so it can be fixed for the next patch.

----------------------

For now:
-The LANHelper will still notify you when the turns become available
-The LANHelper can start SE4 for you, but you will have to re-load your savegame from within SE4.

You will initially see all your ships with no movement, but after you reload the same game from the SE4 menu, the movement will be restored.

I am afraid that there is nothing I can do about this. Obviously, the commandline stuff works properly during simultaneous movement, or PBW perople would have complained.
You are the first EVER player to load a sequential movement game using commandline parameters! Congratulations

Hopefully this can be resolved by the next patch, so send that Email!

Hm,

the same thing happens when I use DOS.

Even all newly built ships don t have any movement points left.

This problem occurs on both machines (LAN).

Total Edit: I know what the problem is.
