League General Discussion Thread

Noticed the dice server is down, if you (yes, you!) are able to use it will you reply here so most of us get a notification? 🤓

@Stucifer

yea it’s a linode issue. Nothing triplea can do until they get it fixed.

@Stucifer

looks as if they made some progress. Might be worth a try

@barnee Thanks, still down, but I was able to subscribe to updates from Linode and will post here when I can verify MARTI is operational again. I have games to throw

@Stucifer

Bummer, hopefully it’s back soon.

If you only have a few small skirmishes, can roll using dice or in the forum to keep things moving.

@Booper Good idea! Also, if anyone else wants to check on updates:

https://status.linode.com/

I subscribed for text updates but haven’t received any, but there have been updates on the website, however the issues are still on the Newark infrastructure which is where the MARTI service is running.

dice roller just worked for me

@mike64 Confirmed working for me as well, thanks!

@gamerman01 I ran into an issue today with one of the 2.6 client versions - it’s on my work laptop and I don’t have it handy right now so don’t have the exact version #

With Edit mode enabled for smoother resolution of naval battles with subs involved, it would not prompt for Retreat and just goes immediately to the next round of rolling dice.

I am going to try a few different 2.6 iterations and 2.7 to see if the issue is reproducable in those other versions.

My home PC has no issues with this bug, running 2.6.14534. Also tested 14748 and 2.7.14934 and was not able to reproduce. @mikawagunichi helpfully tested 14762 on his machine.

Perhaps it was something local to my laptop, I will try to reproduce tomorrow, and point out the version number so we can avoid it.

@Stucifer

I’m pretty sure this is known but not entirely sure if it was resolved.

Some of the very latest pre’s have some issues but 14962 is what I’m on and seems to work pretty good.

I use edit a lot too in Big battles and I’m pretty sure it asks for retreat but I think the whole Sub dynamic may throw things off a bit. I can’t remember if it works with Subs or not lol

https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.14962

Can try the latest though :)

Thanks Barnee. I have 2.7 installed but haven’t switched to using it in any of my forum games. I know it’s backwards-compatible with 2.6 but I think a lot of players are still using 2.6.

Some versions have seemingly random changes to the battle calculator working differently, or having ships and AA guns at the top instead of bottom that I’m used to for land battles (2.7.14934).

Interestingly the more I look at that flipped ships & AA for the land battles the more I like it now…😂😅

@Stucifer

heh heh yea hard to keep up with it all especially when is used to a certain way. I would definitiely upgrade to 2.7+14962.

I’ve been using for 4 months and haven’t really had any issues with it.

To all my current opponents, we had a death in the family and I’ll be away from the forum for a while.

@mikawagunichi Sorry to hear of your loss, my condolences friend.

@gamerman01 @barnee I am on 14748 on my laptop and don’t have the bug if I am in a fresh game either on my laptop or desktop. But the bug is persistent with the save in question. I screen recorded in case anyone is curious but seems like it is thankfully a one-off. Good to know it exists though, in case someone else stumbles into this issue in their game.

The bugged save file: Savegame

had this happen with a strafe using a 2.7 version about 3 weeks ago. unsure what version then but went back with current version 2.7+15113 and it happened again. previous version may have been 14971

redid not attacking with subs. still went directly to next round of combat with no option to retreat

@mike64

Hmm … I just tried with 14962 and it asks to retreat with a Sub attacking as well.

I’ll get latest and test. Oh you already have tested latest. If it broke it might be between 14962 and 14971 then.

I’ll do some more testing.

@666 @ArtofWar1947 @axis-dominion
Thank you for your patience. I am feeling better now and will do my turns asap.

@mikawagunichi
Sorry to read that. Condolences and strength during this hard time.
