MP Game - RewriteHistory - 18civ EARTH map historical start position

[whiplash_CDC]

Game reloaded after Network Socket Error, twice. I think we may have a compatibility problem between the host and Blww. This error prevents players from joining after it occurs but PitBoss keeps on running on the server. 15+ hours to go.

I think there is a problem with Blww...I was trying to log in the other day when he was already in.... I got some strange graphics issues and a flashing red warning message about compatibility problems. He may be playing with a Mod installed or something.

 

[classical_hero]

Well it appears the game is down again.

 

[Indiansmoke]

It seems that crash happened when Blww logged in again...

Blww can you please let us know if you are using any mods...or if you have any idea why this might be happening?

 

[Elkad]

yup, can't connect

 

[zenspiderz]

civstats is gone bizzarro again. I don't know if i can play turn or not. turn order is important at moment due to war.

No, I haven't played yet. Host is down anyway.

 

[Ronnie1]

I actually monitored the Blww issue yesterday...I was able to log in after he played his turn....but there could possibly be an issue when the turn rolls over for some reason.

From civstats...it looks like the last legitimate log in AND log out was Pexicus.

I still believe there is some sort of issue with Blww...just because we were not having problems before he joined.

 

[whiplash_CDC]

Reloaded after another nse.

 

[Blww]

Hi guys,

I have no idea, what can be wrong. As for mods, I don't know if there are any. Just because I don't know what it is. Are you sure the problem is with me ? As far as I could see there were players that could log in and log out after I made the turn. Or is info on civstats wrong ?
Any suggestions on what I can do to eliminate the problem?

 

[zenspiderz]

weren't we getting network errors before blwww joined us?

also there is just 7 and half hours left on the timer and elkad hasn't played his turn yet. he has to play before me but i need to go to bed soon. If i wait till i get up the clock will have flipped over and will have missed my turn

 

[Elkad]

I gave up waiting and went to sleep, sorry. I've played now.

Pexicus, was it really necessary to force me into a split-turn situation? I kinda doubt declaring was a decision you just made this turn..

 

[Blww]

I"ll play my turn now. Everybody has made his turn except of Classical Hero. Let's see if the error occurs.

 

[Pexicus]

Could log in just fine.

 

[Pexicus]

Pexicus, was it really necessary to force me into a split-turn situation? I kinda doubt declaring was a decision you just made this turn..

Decision to declare war was made as soon as Ottoman military advisors reached Syria and saw the direness of situation - hence, last turn.

Let it be known that we do not take lightly declaring wars against brothers in faith.

 

[Elkad]

and the server is down again...

Shouldn't you be assisting your Persian brothers-in-faith in our war vs the Arabian aggressors then?

 

[Pexicus]

Well, I did not notice anything out of ordinary and was able to play my turn. Problem is somewhere else than in Blww's setup, at least.

EDIT: I'm currently testing Pitboss setup on my linux box. If it runs stable without interfering too much other processes I run there, I could take the load off whip's back if thats the consensus. Will keep you posted.

 

[Elkad]

yes, it appears to have dropped about the time Levgree attempted to login (shortly after you played)

I doubt its the fault of any individual client. Probably something more like the server hanging after a certain number of connection attempts.

 

[Hercules90]

Timing out for me atm.
