1.Encountered this case when i wanna start a pbem a PBEM game with my friend, when i opened his saving file i was directly notified that i lost(without even get to play screen).

Then i tested starting PBEM game using different scenarios(of ED), it appears when player want to start a PBEM game of ED month-long campaign and ED full campaign, after selecting the defender's handle, the game jumps to score review screen and directly ends the game. player would be asked to create a savefile for it but no any player opening it could actually play.

I havnt test ED 1day scenario, but ED weeklong and BOB scenarios seems fine.

2.when creating handles(for multiplayer games), after type in, using ENTER(button) to finish naming would cause the mouse disappear. though with alt+tab it could be restored.

3.sometimes game map malfunctions.(as the picture shows)
it mostly happens when bug1(PBEM starting failed) had happened, and user tries to load another(different?) scenario. sometimes it would need to zoom in a level to shows. im not totally sure if it's connected with bug1, but it never happened before, and restarting the game would solve this (if dont try bug1 again).

im using game version 1.06.5(updated from matrix game page), currently running on WIN11 dev edition, started via dxwnd.

(my opponent was using WIN10 so I guess it's not WIN11's problem)

Thanks for this. I found the problem causing the game to end for BoB pbem and fixed it in time for the next patch.

Not sure about the weird graphics, but you need to exit all the way out of the game if your going to load a save game or bad stuff happens. I should take that load option off the menu.
