End Game Bug?

Post by fluidwill »

Run into this a couple of times in PBEM++ where the game ends but the non-phasing player doesn't get to see the last replay or the results screen or any of the post battle stuff - basically can't access the finished battle from the PBEM++ screen. Which is not a deal breaker but annoying if you've had a good scrap.
I haven't tested the hypothesis but discussing with my opps initial thoughts are that it happens when you have the option to continue after the 30% cut off but choose manually not to.
Anyone else experienced this?

Just a follow up, there's definitely something weird going on. Just finished a game of 3rd Herd (Tac Vic to my opponent) he couldn't open the game (game ended on my turn and I sent the congrats/play again? message)so I had a go to perhaps take a screen shot at least to share or whatever. I got to see the map from his perspective (my units were hidden) and then got 9 mins of playback (also from his perspective) but no further end of game dialogue.

Same thing again. Actually things.
I have no turn notifications.
Another game stopped, apparently a draw, it simply disapeared from my list of active games and went "completed". No way to have a look at the last turn.

Rob has been alerted to this issue, but it will take some time to review the Red Storm side of the PBEM code and see if there is a fix or if this is something new with recent PBEM server changes. Sorry for these problems.

I have a similar problem. When the game ends, it immediately goes into the completed status. I can't watch the last move. There is no way to watch this game at all. There are already several such games. When I press the VIEW button, it says that the game has been viewed and that's it.

We are looking into this with Matrix Techs on the server-side, but it is not a quick fix at the moment so we appreciate your patience. [8D]

This is actually not a bug and you can take a look at the final turn and your results, if you are the non phasing player. Click the checkmark on the bottom of the PBEM game list that says show finished games. You should see then the game that just ended and can load the replay of the final turn.

Thanks for the info Secret45. [&o][&o][&o] That's what I get for being up to my eyeballs in Southern Storm work. I forget how to RS PBEM++.[8|]

Maybe the View button? Away from my computer at the moment.

Button - End game now - does not end the game as expected. When you exit the game, it shows my turn again.
