1.08.02 BETA status?

[Dancing Bear]

So, how are we doing with 1.08.02? Is it in the queue at Matrix, or are there still some final changes being made?

[Marshall Ellis]

Matrix is on it! Should be early next week!

[Dancing Bear]

Brilliant Marshall. Thank you for your hard work on this.

Hi Marshall, is there any news on the 1.08.02 patch? Is it going to be available soon? Thanks for your
time.

[Marshall Ellis]

I do not have an ETA yet. Matrix has built the installer so it's only a matter of their schedule now.

Good luck guys, hopefully between your game and the rest of us, we can find all the bugs and tighten this version up. Btw, there is no reason why another test group can not form and run tests in parallel. There are already a few key 1.08.02 bugs on Mantis from the weekend, but some good testing of the PBEM is what is really needed.

PS: Marshall, the 1.08.02 main screen is looking much better than previous versions, and moving fleets is now a breeze.

Thanks guys!

I'm watching some reported combat issues on 1.08.02 PBEM so I'm really wanting someone to get the game to combat.

OK havent heard any word from Eske2u does anyone else want in in the test, if so post here and will send you a file on this
This is a Great Britian player

I can play GB as well as Austria just to get the test game moving if you want.

While people are waiting for feedback on the beta can the following bug be looked at as we are unfortunately losing players due to frustration:

i can take the GB player, as having one player have two countries is not ideal. I'll PM you.
