New & raw web based Dominion II game server

[Ygorl]

I'm happy to help in any way possible. My player name (surprise!) is Ygorl.
I used to get Jabber notices intermittently. Lately I haven't been getting them at all.

Ok, I've tried it out, see if you got anything. Note you can't reply to the address, as the server doesn't read the responses... but you could write me at mesbenh@jabber.dk

Thanks for the help!

Cool. Then I'll just have to watch the logs for the next few days to see if there's still something from with the notification system

I've a problem, I cannot start a game because I cannot remove the check on Disallow Client to Start ...

It gives this error:

Sorry, I didn't get that right. Use your back buttom to try again.

The errors that occured was:

No game named For_whom_the_bell_tolls_doesn't exist. This shouldn't happen, unless the post is spooked.

I can't connect since about 4 hours to Pandemonium2 port 2296

I have only ~150 minutes left to do my turn .

You may well have already tried this (if so, forgive me for redundancy), but many of us find that both mosehansen and Sheap's server occasionally lock up our Dom2 clients. This happens to some people more than others, but the usual precedure is to go into task manager, kill Dom2, try again. One player reported having done this 25 times in a row before finally getting through (I've never had to do this more than 4 times, and even that many is quite rare).

Have you tried this 10+ times in a row?

Copying from someone else's post, I've found the following command line parameters very helpful in bringing up Pandemonium:

dom2-2.12.exe --tcpclient --ipadr mosehansen.dk --port 2296-m

where dom2-2.12.exe is the 2.12 Version of dom2.exe.

It's because of the accursed ?-mark. I could fix it, but it is some work. I hoped you would heed my warning and simply migrate the game... but now I have renamed everything in the tables, so now it should work. Sorry for the inconvenience...

It starts the countdown and after nagots, and stops.
And I've to restart it ...
Esben can you start it for me please?

[Esben Mose Hansen]

I believe Jabber notification works for games that have been restarted since now... sorry for the noise I have been making for some of you

Also, I believe I have now fixed the "game-restarted-mean-everyones-turns-are-lost"

In other words, the only disadvantage with restarting games should now be that the hosting interval is restarted, so the next (forced) turn generation will be postponed. Oh yeah, and anybody connected will probably find that their client is crashed
