Re: MP Turns Not Loading as Normal
Posted: Wed Oct 14, 2020 6:07 pm
Yesterday (Tues) and today (Wed) I didn’t have any problems loading my turns.
Last time this happened (Monday), it didn´t just go back, but also removed the minimap and all buttons and made me unable to interact with the game (P&S, not FoG2) or even leave it normally. I had to close the app from the desktop.rbodleyscott wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 2:22 pmIt isn't in fact messed up, it has just reset to the position at the start of your turn - which is what gets saved, along with a list of the actions taken. The actual position at the end of your turn is reconstructed by the replay at the start of the other player's turn.sIg3b wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 1:41 pmCan this be remedied? It confuses me no end, particularly when, after the message, I am thrown back into the game and it´s completely messed up.rbodleyscott wrote: ↑Wed Oct 14, 2020 6:30 am
Having said that, the server sometimes gives this message when the turn has in fact saved correctly. In which case your completed turn will have been saved, despite the message, and the other player will get his turn as normal.![]()
However, it would be nice if the server could refrain from sometimes sending the could not save code when it has in fact saved. I will raise the issue with the PBEM programmers.
Very strange, but glad it sorted itself out.DryNick wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 6:47 pm Opening my turn in a multiplayer game, I watched the replay of MY previous turn (which in fact was the deployment phase, after force selection) instead of the replay of the enemy's turn.
After the replay was done, I can play the enemy's turn and all of the UI is missing.
So right now I am deploying my opponent's units, it's just 5 cavalry units in an army of 1600 points. Obviously, I can't send his turn as there is no end turn button.
EDIT: FYI, after killing the process and trying again everything worked fine.
Something clearly went wrong with that upload. As you say, server issue.julianbarker wrote: ↑Mon Oct 26, 2020 5:34 pm MP server being very strange today. Playing the new tournament. I am told my move can't be uploaded to the server, but when I cancel it has been uploaded, my opponent plays their turn, then load but it loads my army without the purchased units and then adds the units one by one instead of showing me my already deployed army.
According to the tournament scoresheet, the game has officially finished (no asterisk) with a score of 86:14.Thunderbird wrote: ↑Thu Nov 26, 2020 2:30 pm I just had this happen in the Rise of Carthage tournament. I was defeated by @Sweetnees101, who is leading, but am given the warning that I am unable to load my turn. I also had this happen in a medieval game with @snugglebunnies. I have never seen this before. I think @Sweetness101 will get the credit for the win if the tourney times out, but not sure. As this effects the top bracket I want to bring it to the communities attention.
