Settings bug

Post by Xmelnitsky »

Currently I play game through the server and I noticed some strange thing, I set morale for axis minors (except Finland) to +10, but somehow it shows me that we have +5 morale, including Finland. First screen from main menu, but the settings were exactly the same as in the lobby, unfortunately I didn't take a screenshot of the lobby as soon as I created.
It isn't my turn now, so I couldn't take a look and see is it just display bug or not.

Sorry to hear about your issue. I downloaded your game's last two saves and they both show the 5 morale help levels. I assume this is not a display issue, but actually how this game is operating. The question is did it change during the play of your game, or if it was set up this way (or changed somehow on the initial load)? This is now the 2nd case over the past 2 months of options changing (the other case was help levels changing). Since it's now happened twice, the odds that there is a problem somewhere have gone up. What version are you and your opponent playing with? We don't have any idea how these values could change once in the game. If they were showing one way when the game was loaded on turn 1, and then changed later, it could be a symptom of something else going wrong, but again, we have no ideas at this time.

For now, I suggest that players check out the values when they first start turn 1 to make sure they got started with the correct values. After that, probably worth a check each turn (we can revert a server game one turn if a change is noticed). The programmer is about to go on vacation for two weeks, but when he returns he may be able to put in some additional error checking in case this happens again.

Thank you for your answer. I guess I noticed this issue too late and don't know exactly moment when morale changes. In turn 1 settings were correct, seems that they changed later, maybe when I pass the turn to my opponent? Or could it happen because I saved several times during my turn?
My version is 1.04.16, I play through Steam. I'll ask my opponent about his version.
