Probus Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I just wanted to give a shout out to the developer(s) of the "Who's Turn is It?" PBEM Manager. It really works great for handling your PBEM games automagically. It is free and works with the free version of Dropbox. Removes all the hassle from PBEM. I am pretty sure it will work on all the Combat Mission games. Thanks @IanL! or https://www.lesliesoftware.com/products/WhoseTurnIsIt/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Thank you that is very kind. Yes, it works with all CM2 games. I purposely built it so you point to your installed game and it makes an attempt to figure out the needed directories but you can override them. That way if BFC changes something you are in control. I have a new version coming with a few new features. I'm bogged down with real life work and some changes that are causing me grief. I will update people when there is news. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Probus Posted July 22, 2020 Author Share Posted July 22, 2020 @IanL, Thanks again. If I have Combat Mission on both my Desktop and Laptop, can "Who's Turn is it?" manage the same PBEM games from either one as long as Dropbox is configured properly? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Yeah, it doesn't do well with that. That feature is on the top of my list for after this next release. I sometimes do that too. What I do to keep things sane is create a folder I call "TurnTransfter" and put the latest turns that I am supposed to play in that folder. Then on the other machine I manually copy them to the incoming folders of the appropriate game. Then I can play turns like normal on that machine. When I'm done I do the same thing the other way and then play turns like normal on my other machine. I know that's not very satisfying and doesn't work for people going back and forth between machines. It does work though if you are heading on a trip and want to use your notebook for a few days and then later come back to your main machine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
