Is this a PBEM game? PBEM games don't end with a victory -- we keep the game active so all players can have a chance to look at the final game state.

Status: offline 		Further to the above. Bobo is refering to our PBEM game. The game we had the Time Out issue with. We are both using 1.04 beta. The scenario is 1st Manassas 2 player only. He can't end his turn.

Right now our game is non playable.

Advice?

2 turns played out fine. Now he can't end his T3.

The End Turn button did highlight when I have been clicking on it but turn did not end.

Status: offline 		This may be from a bug in the new build. I added code to prevent buttons from working in the middle of combat, but the data for this may not be initialized properly in PBEM. Would you mind terribly rolling back to V1.0.1 and seeing whether you can end your turn or not? This would help me figure out whether it's related to that or to some other issue.

Status: offline 		Does this mean 1.04b is broken for PBEM?

I want to start another game but this problem experienced by Bobo has put me off ATM. Should I wait till the next beta or official patch?

Sorry for late reply, I was off during the weekend.
I can try and revert to v1.0.1 if it will help you.

Status: offline 		Thank you, that would help. As to whether 1.0.4 is broken for PBEM, I haven't been able to duplicate this issue and we haven't had any other reports of this problem so far, so I think things are working in general.

Status: offline 		eric,
Today I tried to play my turn under 1.04. and the bug struck again. So a made another attempt, just watched the combat and then immediately ended the turn. It ended and uploaded w/o problems.
After I get it back, I will try with 1.01.

I could not try 1.01 earlier as the box have arrived only today and for download is available only 1.02 and 1.04.

Status: offline 		That's strange that it worked and then didn't. 1.0.0 should be sufficient to test this problem. Have you played any other PBEM games during this time? If so, are those working properly?

Status: offline 		No, only this one game. I have played 2 turns now with 1.05 and the problem did not occur.
We are going to restart the game soon and currently it looks only 1.04 is causing this issue.

In the combat resolution phase I have the "OK" button overlapping "END TURN" button. Might accidentally click on the "END TURN" button during combat phase break it?

Status: offline 		clicking on any part of the screen while the AI or other side makes it turn can cause problems on some machines, with windows 8.1 and windows 10 beta it has been noticed on some hardware, to make sure run the game in windows xp sp3 compatibility mode with a admin account and settings, and then see if it fixes the problem with accidents or any sort of error messages, but have no idea if it will help a pbem game in progress or not, but worth a try as you have nothing to loose as it takes all of 2 sec to use the settings, only down side is when you exit the game you get a few seconds more delay in closing the program which is normal for this setting being used on a exe...

Status: offline 		It's possible clicking end-turn during combat causes problems. I'll have to double-check the code to make sure the check for the combat phase is working.

Status: offline 		well back to my single player end turn problem. I get it occasionally with different scenarios but all I do is save the game and load it back up and then it will let me end turn.
