Guest Mike Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Apparently this has happened a few times now - happened for the 1st time to me today tho, vs Buffy who has experienced it b4. Custom mission - player setting up takes the bottom pair in the setup screen with 1 fighter & 1 bomber. Other player is the top pair with 2 fighters. When hte game starts the player setting up is presented with his bombers and fighters mixed - each pair on the screen has 1 bomber and 1 fighter!! No idea how hte game sequence goes because we stopped the game pronto. It repeated with a 2nd game. In the 3rd game I put myself as the top pair, and the other guy as the bottom pair and it was OK...except I got massacred! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakespeed Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 I think this happened because of the bomber coordination card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horatius Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 My theory for that bug is that both players can hit the start button, not just the one who creates the game. If only one hits start, all is fine, if both do it the elements get mixed up. I came up with that theory after a game where my opponent created the game and i hit start, we aborted and tried again. The second time i did not start and all was fine. Haven´t tested this theory so it could just be my imagination , but maybe it´ll help. If not dismiss my rantings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartbert Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 Ok. I'll try to take a look at it within the next couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron von Beergut Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I never heard the start button issue before, but maybe that is it? I've had it happen both with and without the bomber coord card in my hand. vs StalinO the first attempt I had the card but the next two times I didn't and it still happened.

bartbert Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I think Horatius has identified the problem. I ran some test earlier today. If just one player clicks the "Start" button, the game works correctly. It doesn't matter who clicks the Start button as long as only one person does it. If both players click the Start button, the game is all screwed up. It doesn't matter what skills you have, or what position (top or bottom) that your aircraft were supposed to be in. The game is completely messed up. I'll try to get a fix out later that only allows one player to click the Start button, but in the mean time, just agree ahead of time who is going to click the Start button.

bartbert Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I updated code on the server that should make it so that only the player who created the game can click the Start button. There is no download necessary since all changes were on the server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mike Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 That's great - I hope it fixes it but it won't help me for a few days 'cos my home cmputer is on the blink & in the shop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
