Check.1. Check the forums first to see if the bug has already been posted!
Check.2. Write the bug report in the following way:
a. Write the title of the bug. (i.e., "Game crashes when the user clicks 'X'".)
b. Write the steps to reproduce the bug. It should look like this:
1. Load the game.
2. Choose a single player game.
3. Select Persia and press x."
1. Start PTBS and load a 'recoverysave' file from an existing game.
c. Write what you observed. (i.e., "The game crashes").
The player that has most recently played (and the recoverysave is named after him) shows as logged in/out but their turn is not actually completed.
d. What you expected to happen. (i.e., "The game should show the Civilization info for that civ)
The game should have that player's turn as completed.
The recoverysave is a great tool, but its utility is blunted by the most recent login still having to redo their turn, potentially losing it if the clock is too far down near the next turn. If the save could be done immediately after logout rather than immediately after login, everything would be fantastic.
