Order Processing Error (Ankara Crescent variant)

gameID=14376 Autumn 1903. Notice that three units (Sevastopol, Black Sea, and Wales) were simultaneously ordered to Armenia, none of them under support. The move from Wales succeeded; the others did not.

This should be considered an error and bug-checked in the Ankara Crescent variant.

Competitive Dip

On a suggestion from PE, I am interested in finding those people on this site who like to play competitive Diplomacy - the way it was first created. No pre-arranged draws, no unbreakable alliances...play to win, just like the objective says.

So, who's interested?

Please, new request : units sorted by alphabetical order on the orders sheet.

I am playing my first Modern Diplomacy II game and I have had the HUGE pleasure to notice that my units are sorted by alphabetical order on the orders sheet !

It is so much easier and clearer to find my units that way ! Would it please be possible that units are sorted by alphabetical order on the orders sheet in every variant ?

Sitter needed

I've got 2 games on the go that I'd rather not CD - a WWII gunboat most importantly, and a Europe 1939 full press game. I'm away from the 30th to the 10th of June, so would somebody mind taking over for that period?

Feature Suggestion: Delayed Vote Notification?

In the age of the mobile smart phone, it is quite common for people to accidentally hit a button they don't mean to, which usually breaks up the global chat and causes an extra envelope to show up for every player in the game.

Safari (1530 )

While this is nothing game breaking, it is certainly annoying, and has caused many players to feel the need to apologize at one point or another for the inconvenience it causes.

My suggestion is, for those orders, to implement a short timer (say 5 minutes or so) that would prevent those votes from appearing in the global chat until it ended. If the player chose to cancel their vote before the 5 minutes was up, the notification in global would never appear and the chat flow would continue uninterrupted by any accidental button hits.

I have no idea if it would be possible/feasible to implement this, and I know that Oli is very busy, but I am sure a feature like this would be appreciated by many players if it ever came to be. Does anyone see any flaws?

The one big problem I see is games with 5 minute phases.

Safari (1530 )

What if it wasn't put in place for live games?

Oli (977 )

Maybe not delayed, but if you cancel your vote in a specified time (maybe 5 minutes) it could also undo the message...
But I'm not sure if I can easily delete the notification. On the other hand maybe these "vote"-messages should not generate a "NewMessage"-icon by default.
Also I'm thinking about removing "GameMaster"-messages after 1 turn from the global chat (They would still be visible in the message archive).

Retillion (2304 )

Maybe a solution is to add a feature that asks, after a player has clicked on a vote button :

"Are you sure that you want to vote "XXX" ?

This was under discussion two months ago:
http://vdiplomacy.net/forum.php?viewthread=40270#40270

I would support Retillion, and argue that having a check message
"Are you sure that you want to vote "XXX" ?
would be in general a good thing, in particular for the draw vote.

If you play through a touchpad device and you're on the lead of the board, you have to keep away from that damn Draw button…

vDiplomacy Webserver

I tried to install the webserver on a local server for testing purposes and ran into some problems:
1) the documentations do not seem to match the downloaded folder
2) it seems like there are .sql files missing
3) when installing all .sql-files manually (in order) the webserver gives the following error message: "Error triggered: Unknown column 'u.showCountryNamesMap' in 'field list'."

Appears to be a problem in the coding of the Youngstown World War II map

I'm currently playing Italy in a Youngstown World War II map, and I've run into a problem. The supply zone of Tirane is very obviously drawn so that it's adjacent to the Ionian Sea, but the game will not let me order a movement from the Ionian into Tirane.
