Don't think that's much of a choice, you know what needs to be done.

Okay, the path is clear. Let us sacrifice this game to the gods of llamaserver in the hopes that our next jourey could be without bugs.

I'm going to finish the game and start a new one with the same settings.

EDIT: Game is up. Please send in pretenders.

Le Sigh.
Llama server is now repeatedly sending my pretenders back saying they are middle age R'lyeh pretenders when they need to be early age.

I've checked, thoroughly, to make sure I am indeed sending in an early age pretender. I have the early age Jenga map open right now, with the Jenga mod on, and my one saved R'lyeh pretender loaded right in. I am certain this is a perfectly kosher early age pretender.

I've decided to step out of the game and ask for a sub. Hopefully the trouble is somehow on my end and a different person playing R'lyeh will enable the game to continue. I'm sure a lot of you guys are probably wondering if I'm attempting some sort of hacks or shenanigans which have lead to this, and I don't want to be in this position any more.

OH MY GOD!



I now know what the bug is. It was because of the Jenga mod where I moved MA R'lyeh into early age to give it coastal recruits. That's why llamaserver is throwing fits, because it thinks that you are basically sending MA prentenders into early era game. I don't know why it accepted R'lyehs pretender in the first game, but it was likely the cause of error.

I'll just make the game "multi-age" game, so that the game accepts pretenders from all eras. That should fix it. Just be certain that you have the Jenga mod enabled when making pretenders.

So yeah, my bad. Please feel free to verbally mock me if you feel like it, I deserve it for not figuring this out sooner.

Ugh.

I was just about to upload the fixed version of the Jenga mod when my internet connection decided to fail , but it will be back up later today. I'm posting this from school.

Just give me 12 hours and I will fix this game for good. Everyone just lay back and breathe until I mangae to upload the new Jenga mod. Patience is a virtue, you know.

Intostructure if you don't want to deal with R'lyeh right now, I can change nations with you, if you so wish.

Well, this is kind of a cluster ****. I think I may bow out of it.

Then again, I only have two games going now, so I guess I could try and slog through all of this. Heh, I'll decide tomorrow.

Default Re: The Early Days. Bug identified! Send in pretenders (..again)

Ok, here is my assestment of the situation:

1) The bug is squished. I tested my the new preferences out and managed to send a pretender for R'lyeh with 0 problems.

2) Unfortunately everyone needs to re-download the Jenga mod (can be found in the first of the game thread, titled Jenga_Mod_fixed, containing a Jenga2.dm file). When you put the file in the mods folder, feel free to delete the old "Jenga" .dm file to stop it from cluttering your mod preferences screen.

3) The changes in the mod shouldn't affect any one else but R'lyeh, but I've decided to play it safe and I'm asking everyone to remake their pretender and making sure that they have the new Jenga mod and the single age mod enabled. Since you guys probably remember your desings, this will only take a minute.

4) Send in the new pretender and once everyone has sent it, we start the game and have fun bashing heads.

5) Even if the player for R'leyh is final in his decision to step down, it won't matter, for I shall take control of R'lyeh. So if you follow the steps above, the game will get rolling.

6) Thanks for your patience.
