Variable Initiative?

[76mm]

When playing hotseat, the manual says that variable initiative will not be used. But it is. Is there any way to turn this annoying feature off?

I thought this had been fixed in a patch, but it does not seem to have been. I thought this had been discussed on this forum, but a search turned up nothing, as usual.

Anybody have any tips on how to stop this?

You should be able to turn it off in the Advanced Game Options dialog.

It should not be Variable if you Start in Hotseat, that's how we used to get around it. But this could have messed with some Events, so with IV's Option to turn it off we don't have to do that now. I know we tested it in Beta so hopefully it is still working properly. Maybe you switched to Hotseat after starting?

Found it, thanks. But I don't see this mentioned in the manual, it just says that it will not happen in hotseat or PBEM.

Nope, I only play in hotseat, and this was happening in a test scenario I'm playing with that didn't have an AI, etc.
