PBEM question

Post by klzlueylx »

Is it possible to having PBEM mode? not using the slitherine PBEM++ account,as the server sometimes having difficulties to connect.

I've thinked about using hotseat saving files to do so, but the hotseat mode don't have a confirm button between player turns, so the opponent will have visual and control on everything

Hotseat is currently the way to go. I'll see if I can add something. But really the PBEM system is the best way to go. If something gets lost I can restore a corrupted turn.

speaking of which, a game i was playing would not load, i've tried 3 times, first two times it says loading failed after a long loading, the third time it took half an hour before i lose patience.

The game id is 167765, game between klzlueylx and kennonlightfoot, would you please do anything about that?

Try today some others were having problems. Is it on the WarPlan loading screen when it says Generating Game?

Or is it on the Server side where the years flow across?

It's the server side, years 1939-1945 rolling. usually my computer would took 3-10mins to give a result, loading failed or successfully loaded, but these two days it cannot.

Thanks!
