HiHi
 
While we wait, anyone any idea how the in game 'Chat' thing works, ie can it be made single Nation specific or does everyone get to looksee.
 
+  what are folks veiws re emailing diplomatic stuff to Nations you want to explain more than the games treaty deffinitions alow; I'm in favour, but not sure if it's considered bad form or something.  It would certainly add an extra dimention to the game, make it more like an expanded 'Medieval diplomacy', anyone here played that?
 
Thoughts?

Chat is just for online game ... in PBEM doesn't work

[Mus]

I wouldn't mind if you want to do is turn until he can tell us what is happening.

Kingmaker I'm all for emailing before deals... Not so much because I think there's not much you can do within the current system. But more because I think some stuff can get stupid (ie even if you set some stuff too export, maybe you'll get SO MANY trade offer in one turn that you'll drop to like +3 of something you wanted to get to +10 instead a turn...) I think the best way to resolve that issue would be to try and get the programmers to modify how PBEM policies work


On top of that, I believe it is nice to be able to tell someone who just beated you that if he leaves your territorial intergrity alone you'll happily turn against your old allies to help in out. I think it as the feel of the period alot more not to ask for only land when you beat someone but rather for stuff like enforced alliance and stuff Unfortunetely, AI aren't a lot of help so I don't do it in solo play

On top of that I offered some treati on the first turn, Having asked to people first might have made sure we didn't all ask for the same treati... It can get confusing to know wich one to sign when you have 5 indentical treaties offered by you and the four others![&:][8|]

[Mus]

Give him a few hours to respond to the email and then if not make a very conservative turn for him.  Just set his labor in an intelligent way and put his policies so that he basically sits there.
 
Thats my vote.

[timurlain]

Sounds like a good plan.

[Matto]

So I wait until today evenening and than will play it ... agree ?

[Matto]

So, two news ... good and bad
God: I played Sweden
Bad: I cannot merge files (game always crashed) ... something is wrong. So I'm asking Matrix team and will hope to quick response

Or

Can ANYBODY try Merge it ? Just save files to PBEM directory and click Merge PBEM files button ... here are all saves: PBEM files

[Mus]

Does it not like the fact that you played two parties?
 

[timurlain]

Hello, I got an error message saying incompatible versions or something. It did produce a file. I loaded it,but none of my movements have happened and the month way May 1803. Also there were no events.

[Matto]

I'm sure no ... in PBEM test games we tested it and it works

[Mus]

Damn, I hope support will be able to resolve the issue.

[Matto]

I combine it now ... after about 10x crash ?!?!?

Wait for turn ...

[Mus]

Is it possible you have different files from being a beta tester and thats messing things up matto?
 

[Matto]

Sending to all ... [8D]
