Pitboss 27 IT and Tech Issues Thread

Heads up guys, there is a (new to me) bug with the combat calculator.

If you, player A, are at war with Player B and at peace with Player C, imagine that Player B and Player C have units stacked on the same tile. Sometimes the combat calculator will return the odds for a battle between Player A unit and Player C unit defending, when instead the Player B unit would be attacked, if the player C unit has "better odds" in the imaginary battle that would occur IF players A and C were at war. If you choose not to declare war on Player C, then you attack player Bs units, but you don't know what the odds are.

Anyone who knows the requisite part of the code can feel free to dive in and fix it for inclusion in a future release of RtR, with many thanks. It should be a DLL update, not XML as far as I know, but I'm not a credible resource on the matter. nod

To be clear, this is a bug in base BTS, not something in RtR.

Heads up for people locked in sequential turns with me: I will be unavailable to play until January, 5th.

Well, there's technically 200 hours left on the clock, so we shouldn't need a pause at least... crazyeye

Unless anyone has any reason not for me to do so, later today I'll update the timer back to the 22hrs (I think that's what it was) so that after whoever ends up being last to play ends turn then the timer will be back to what it was.

It's too late now, but it sure would have been funny post-game to see the progression of all the war declarations for this game. There are so many going on right now just as it is. It would also have been interesting to see what the most number of people being at war with someone else at the same time was. I'm sure right now that more than half the people still alive are at war with at least one other person. Heh.

Make war not love.
Give war a chance.
War, love & rock 'n roll
What if they threw a war and everybody came?
