Never too early for a bit of desperation :)

Yeah no problem

I had to edit the sub from z36 to z44, as TripleA always tried to get it to move through the destroyer instead of the cruiser, and wouldn’t let me move it forward if I moved it to z35 first.

Do you want to intercept in London? I’m sending three bombers and you have a UK ftr and a France ftr (got the usual error on posting the map, so it should arrive soon)

I got around to posting a failing turn summary in debug mode. The forum is just returning 404 not found with no additional information. I believe this is in line with what someone else reported earlier when they were manually attaching a file.

So not really anything to do about it in TripleA, besides potentially showing a different message when that happens.

Keep the tipped bb

@Boldfresh:

Holy cow totally forgot we were playing this game!!! Sorry

Hehe no problem, I’ve been busy anyway so I didn’t bother bumping.

Yeah scramble three fighters. Start with bb tip and cruiser, if you get three hits take the german ftr, if you get more than that please ask.

Yeah, I thought of that as well. The changelog just says “Sessions weren’t always cleaned up properly on logout” though, which doesn’t really indicate a security issue. I’m thinking that adding the session_destroy was the important thing for that.

Luckily not much was changed so it was pretty easy to track it down.

In 1.1.19 they added some code in LogInOut.php that changes the users password salt whenever you log out. When you switch to another browser, the hash matching fails since it was generated with a different salt, and you get logged out.

The offending code is at lines 463-464. I have no idea how to make a modification for SMF but I guess you could just try commenting out those lines to start with, to see if it works.

The call to session_destroy() on line 462 is also added in that change, but I would expect that is independent for each browser session so I don’t think that’s causing any issues.

Realized just after my post that I could just check an archive.org snapshot of the forum. Looks like it went from 1.1.16 to 1.1.21. To spaghetti land I go…

What version of SMF was running on the old site? I can try doing a quick diff to see if anything’s changed in the logout module.

I agree. If it really bothers you, you can choose to use a separate account for posting from triplea, so at least the forum account won’t show up.

As far as I can tell, the logout and posting error issues are independent.

The logout issue is just because the forum software now logs you out of all sessions when you log out of one session. This is easy to reproduce just by using two browsers on your computer. Since TripleA always includes a logout as the last step, you always get logged out of your browser when posting, regardless of whether the post succeeds or not.

The posting error is something else, and since it doesn’t happen every time it is probably somehow related to server load. Unfortunately it seems to be working right now when I try posting with the debugger active in TripleA, I’ll give it another try when I see issues posting a real game.

By the way, the forum seems to have an attachment size limit of 1 mb now and not 1.5 mb, so the text under the attachment button isn’t accurate.

Nothing to see here

Want to intercept in London? Would be 2 bombers vs. 1 ftr (map is posted but not visible yet)

No thanks

Well, it was a close one…

Yeah, sub is fine. Take the destroyer and carrier.
