By the way, please remind me - what do all these special small icons on a random map mean?
IIRC some of them are just for fun, and some actually mean something.
For example, on our map we have:
Multiply tiny houses icons, sometimes several per province
Volcano icon
White stone building with big ball on top
Lake icon
Ice icon
|
I don't think the little house means anything.
But the volcano etc correspond to a special terrain mask that indicates more chance for sites, on a random map. However, the map file could have been edited and the terrain mask changed, in which case the graphic would still be there but the extra site chance wouldn't.
If you really want to check, have a look in the map file at the terrain masks, and compare the mask values to the values here:

Or you could just be sure to do a little more site searching in those sites.

you'd think the little houses would indicate higher than normal pop....

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
Why are we on 48 hour host for the first turn?

Re: Figment - Early Game (Sign Up Now!)
read back...I don't think velusion has come back and read the thread yet, so he hasn't switched back to normal host.

Delay request
I need to fly to Stuart for a wedding.
May I request no turns be run on Saturday? I will be able to resume on Sunday.

I'll try and remember to reset the clock Saturday - hopefully that will give you enough time. |

Re: Delay request
Hmm, suddenly I can't log in. Dom3 freezes on "please wait" message, I've tried twice over the last 15 minutes.
Is anybody else having troubles connecting?

Re: Delay request
Oh no. The dreaded syncinfo bug has appeared again!
Launch Dom 3 in a window. Log in. Leave that window open, hung on the waiting screen, and launch a second instance of Dom 3. Then you should be able to get in.

Re: Delay request
Nevermind, it looks as if I was trying to connect while the new turn was being generated. Appereanly it takes quite a while with so many players. But thanks for the tip, I'll keep it in mind.
And yes, it means we have a NEW TURN.  |

Re: Delay request
if the sync bug occurs, when you cannot login after opening the window twice, just open it for the third time.
Worked here in last game  |
