PBEM with patch02
« le: 15 juillet 2010, 15:43:35 pm »
I have create PBEM game.
Made deploy.
Hit P.
Hit end turn send file or similar.
Then without wait file from opponent.
Resume PBEM game
Load my previous file.
Why found me to make deploy with enemy army without warning ?
Only first move,then next moves if try to reload my file for two times  'error is not your turn'
Very little problem,the PBEM work well 3 turns for now.
Tank for reply

The sequence is like that:
Let two players A and B

Init
A creates the game, place his troops, send his orders (turn X) * Send to B
B loads the game, place his troops, send his orders (turn X) * Send to A

a
A loads the game, simulates the turn X, * Send to B
B loads the game, displays the turn X (15 minutes), sends his orders (turn Y)* Send to A
A loads the game, displays the turn X (15 minutes), sends his orders (turn Y) * Send to B

b
B loads the game, simulates the turn Y, * Send to A
A loads the game, displays the turn Y (15 minutes), sends his orders (turn X) * Send to B
B loads the game, displays the turn Y (15 minutes), sends his orders (turn X) * Send to A
Continue to a

Is it clear?

What does simulate the turn mean?

This is where the turn is actually processed.  Everything else is just display and entry of orders.

I don't know of a good one word description for what's happening there. 

Both sides display the replay of the last turn, then give orders, and when you get the red screen, all these orders are processed for the next 15 minute period.  This is where the game is actually played.  It produces the replay you'll watch when you get the file for your turn.

While it's possible to change it so that only one person does the processing, it's more secure and generally more fair to have each side alternating the processing.   I'm not sure whose doctrine files are used or if you can specify a custom doctrine for both sides.
