If the servers 3.10 and you use 3.14 you will crash the server and the turn will not run until your 2h file is deleted.

Meaning you will stale or after do your turn all over again from scratch using 3.10.

Copy your dom exec to your desktop, rename Dom310, cut/paste it back where it was. Then install 3.14. Now you can play sp 3.14 and use the 3.10 exec to do your turns.

I would send in your turn before downloading the patch(just to be safe). But Llamabeast says you can do it either way for this turn. Everyone must use the 3.14 version for the turn after this one.

Llamabeasts tech knowledge is far superior to mine, so I am probably wrong but I am sure he said that last patch and there were problems.

My way is 100% safe and I have been throu all the patches from 3.00 ---> present.

Llamaserver added an extra day to the host(because of the patch). But I do not think we need 72 hours at this stage to do a turn. And I reserve the right to shorten it back to the original duration if a delay is not warranted. In this case Llamabeast applied the patch in minutes so no delay at all is warranted.

Nonetheless, I did leave 10 hours of the delay in tact since 2 persons did not have their turns in yet.
