Serious PBEM bug /gamebreaker

Post by Espejo »

Yesterday I forgot to save my German move in a game (opponent is WA) . Lazy as I am I look up my autosave files to not replay the turn.

Surprise surprise locking at the last one I see world from the WA side I can even move his units around etc it is as if I am playing WA!!! No password was asked to open the save.

Again playing germany I am afterwards able to load up the autosaves to look up the WA side and play a little bit around with it even, see his units his research everything

I think this should be fixed.


I tried it with other PBEM moves I received. It works every time.[:o]Perhaps my opponents are to lazy to use passwords?

I tested this out, and when I used an autosave from a game with passwords for all sides, it required teh upcoming players password to get into, and when the turn was over it closed and made you save. That save needed the next players password to open.

So I think your opponent may not have entered a password?
