Is there a new mobile website?
It looks great, but could I turn it off? I use a BlackBerry Passport, which has a nice big screen and doesn't need it.

In Chrome you have to set it back to original version under settings

There was an update on github for the webdip-version.
I merged the update with our code so we can iron-out the bugs for the webdip-release.. :-)

If you are using Android, you can use the 3 dot menu in the upper right and choose "Request Desktop Site". Not sure about Apple.

Desktop Mode doesn't work for me. An option at the bottom of the screen to switch back and forth would be nice. Maybe I should ask on the webDip side, though, if the update is on their end.

Weird it works for me.
For my iPad, it’s displayed the new way when I hold it vertically and the old way (the one I prefer) when I hold it horizontally.

I've got Samsung with Android 7. I used the "three for request desktop" and it reverted right back to the original look.

It is nice work though, and thank you Oli.

Maybe I should try Chrome?
Just checked on my iPhone using Firefox (perfect!) and iPad using Chrome (does what I hoped, vertical version uses new look, horizontal version usual approach.)

Thanks Oli, nice work!

I wish websites were more 'opt in for mobile page' rather than 'you have to opt out to get a remotely functional website when viewing on your phone'.

Works well on Android 7 with the last Firefox guys. I was waiting for a while, thanks a lot.
Aside note : you should set the width attribute of the background picture smaller for mobile

opera android still kinda annoying. opening page is zoomed in
Thanks Mapu, fixed that for me.
I found the new mobile version very difficult, the desktop site is a far superior layout in my view. Much easier to use, this just made life difficult for me. Even on my small 3 inch phone I prefer the Desktop version.
Why was a change deemed necessary? Anyone know?
Mapu (2086 D (B))

@Oli, Better now but Notices are unnecessary. Can you..?
Ok. Useable under windows mobile now.

This site was never really mobile-friendly and a pain to use (at least on my iPhone). This is much better. Also we are "testing" the code for other webdip installations. This is a bit like in the early beginnings of the site with all the new (and sometimes unstable) stuff going on. I like it.. :-)

Is it really to hard for anyone to request the desktopsite on his mobile-device if he don't want the mobile version? Usually all devices/browsers have an option to do so. I should be able to make this a user-setting if needed, but nearly all browsers have the ability to do so on their own.

Game set up - NMR
I want to set a game so that it never processes a turn with out orders. I think that is setting “Turn” = 0.
But if I set “Delay”= 2 does that mean a two day/phase pause before that player is kicked? Or is he kicked immediately and there are 2 days for a replacement to appear. In the latter case what happens after the 2 days?

Imperium-variant might work again...
I did some work on the adjudicator and this might work again.
Not a very balanced variant, but has a really interesting start..

obsolete Sengoku variant
Hi all, designer of Sengoku here. I would love to get the latest version of Sengoku in use on this system, as it is much more balanced. Found here: http://dipwiki.com/index.php?title=Sengoku
Even if the DP system, can't be used, the version at http://nairenvorbeck.angelfire.com/ is still better than the one in use currently. Poor Mori needs a fair chance :-) Anyone willing/able to help me get these implemented?

1 v 1 games on variant maps
I am not a coder (sic) so I was wondering how hard is/was it to code 1 v 1 games? Is it reasonable to think that variant maps (Modern, Ancient Med, etc) could be set up to create 1 v 1 games? The idea of having a larger group of countries to play against each other is intriguing. I just don't know if it possible, or doable.

How old school are you?
I am not very tech savvy so forgive me. I think I started dip on some RSS pages using Netscape at work in maybe 1996(?) does that make sense? All email based through Judges. What were they called? USDJ or something. I remember FROG but they all spoke French. Haha. I used to stand outside my office in the snow smoking a cig with a hand drawn map with about 100 crossing out for each phase using coloured pens. Ah web based interactive maps?!?! Luxury!!!

New Maps
I'm super new to the site and I was curious how new maps were made and/or submitted. I noticed a lot of the maps look a bit old and it got me thinking about what it would take to create a higher resolution version of a game map. Are there certain file formats a map must be in or is this all a responsibility for site admins only? Thanks!

Imperium Diplomacy
Under the variants, I noticed one called Imperium Diplomacy, but was not able to create a game using this variant. Is it a discontinued variant, or under a different name? It looks like an interesting one, especially the beginning turns.

Custom phase bug
This might be better in the Mods section, but I thouht I'd post here first to see if other users have any input.

I'm trying to create a new game with a custom phase length. When I select "Custom" from the drop-down menu, nothing happens. However, when I select "2 days, 2 hours", I've given the option to input a phase length. Hopefully this is an easy fix.

WWII Update Errors
Hello, I am currently in a game of WWII and I was just informed that it has been updated, "fixing" problems with dual coasts. This supposedly means that Palestine now has two coasts. However, I have a fleet in the Red Sea and it can no longer move to Palestine! Please fix?
