arethusa -> Changing sides (10/22/2003 9:31:55 PM)

In a recent PBEM game, I'd like to change sides to replay it with the same map and same OOB, (but different deployment as desired by both players).

To that end, does anybody know of a way to change passwords so that we can exchange passwords with each other and then change them to play the opposite side.

Failing that, is it possible to get the map from the game and restart it completely? It was a randomly generated map.

First I don't think you can change both passwords only one. So one of you would have to trust the other player not to peek at your side.

Second the originator of the game would have had to save his original purchase or start up under a unique name so that he could open the game at the point where he had made his intial purchases, put in his password and sent it off to you. This gets you the same random map you started with.

Third the originator would then open the game as the second person, purchase the exact same purchases as the opposing person did and then deploy and put in a new password. You can see what the other persons OOB was by looking at your old game and putting in the right passwords.

Fourth then the originator would send the game to the other person and they would deploy and start the game.

All very simple right. :D
