Game will not stop on Players Turn

Post by larrywrose »

I have uploaded an autosave land combat file with this message. I have run through the fights twice. Both times I did the battle with Nappy last and chose Outflank. In both cases after the combats are done when I hit the button to end the phase the game starts cycling through phases and does not stop. I had to bring up the task manager both times to close the game. Good luck with this one. I am using 102k.

Thanks
Larry W. Rose

Marshall, I'll bet this is tied to the enhancement you put in that I suggested: Automatically choosing the next PBM file in sequence.
At LAST! The greatest campaign board game of all time is finally available for the PC. Can my old heart stand the strain?

Larrywrose:

Appreciate the save. Looking at it...

Jimmer:

You could be right. I'll have to do a little digging.
Thank you

Hey guys:
 
This bug was due to the fact that in Kiel, France is blockading the port BUT also has ships in port. Denmark owns Kiel and at the end of the turn Kiel was evacuating and France was being forced to run her own blockade. The blockade running resolution was turning France into a temp computer player twice! You should be able to fix this game and run with it if you assault and take Kiel. This will shut the blockade down. This fix will be in 1.03

I'm Spain in a hard game, and after running this fight three times, the game runs itself after the fight everytime.

I picked Esc Assualt, and both times the defender failed to withdraw. The first two times I eliminated the enemy force, the last fight I did not though I still won the battle.

What file should I email?
