Maritime combat in PbEM partially not shown

Post by Sugar »

My opponent complains he can`t see some of the combats in the turn repeat. He`s using a PC at home and a laptop at "work".

Challenge ID is 93434, a game in german. It would be very kind if somebody could take a look.

Saved PBEM++ games are only partially saved/uploaded to the server with the rest of the turn copied/saved to a .dat file on the computer hard drive.

The file can be typically found here: C:\Users\<windows_user_name>\AppData\Local\My Games\Strategic Command WWII - War In Europe\PBEM++\<matrix_user_name>

See also: tm.asp?m=4305962&mpage=1&key=&#65533;

Essentially, your opponent needs to copy the dat file from the computer he previously played his turn on, to the computer he will play his next turn on, before launching his turn. The play back of his opponents turn (your turn) will be corrupted/incomplete unless this is done each time.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
