PBEM Questions

[kaintzs]

Is there a source somewhere that covers how PBEM++ works in detail? I don't see much (anything?) in the actual game manual. I've created a game a day or so ago, and it's not clear what happens next. I assume my partner accepts to start the axis turn, but there is no prompt for this. Also, today there was a patch I gather, and so I logged in, opponent had still not accepted, and all games there were showing up as red. Is this a version control issue? If so how does PBEM work with Steam given that it generally auto-updates games? Any version update will break the PBEM game? Many thanks for the assistance here.

Hi Scott

The game only starts when someone accepts the challenge, no turns can be played until then, and you should receive an email when your challenge is accepted.

The server does need to be updated when patches are released, but I believe that has been done now, so once your opponent accepts it, play can commence!
