Spwaw 7.1 beta online play problem

Post by Cirrus »

Finally tried 7.1 beta RC1 which I downloaded while ago from armorsite. Haven't read all post so I don't know if this is noticed before or not.

It seems that 7.1 has much more consitency problems than in online play that previous versions. Now when we tested it I noticed that very often when my friends kills my men (I am host). he gets men killed, but I don't actually loose any. Other thing is that when he tries to shoot indirect fire with tanks. It often hits to top left corner of my map altough he most certainly wasn't aiming there. We only played couple of games before reverting back to 7.0 so I don't know much more about this, but it was very
clear that this happens. with 7.1 beta.

Yep. 6.x version you could get aa different map than your opponent when using random setting, but 7.0 was quite good I don't remember any consistency problems with it. All online games I play is in my LAN so latency or packet loss isn't a issue here.

And with 7.1 beta We couldn't play a single game without glitch. In every game there was some problems with men not dying etc. With 7.0 that is possible.
