Gotcha, that makes sense.

I've seen this in a few boards, shows up in the about sections.
whenever you use a possessive apostrophe, you get this instead: "&apo"

apo is greedy and likes to steal people's stuff.

This board is in Review now, so why does it not display the Custom Fog on the Game Info page http://www.wargear.net/games/view/15834 but it does in the Flash Player?

Minor bug in the way that boards are sorted when the Points column is clicked on the Player Stats page. It appears they're sorted as strings instead of as numbers, so 2 incorrectly appears higher in the list than 12.

Strangely, this only seems to happen for some players. The same bug is on bengaltiger's page, but not on Yertle's or asm's.

It appears everyone* has 0 boots/surrenders for a Stat, did this get wiped clean on purpose or accident?... Must be an accident because it doesn't appear Boots are being tracked/kept at all currently.

*everybody* = The 5-7 players that I am fairly certain had at least 1 boot and going from a game with a booted player to his/her profile and seeing the Boots at 0.

That's pretty funny, because I remember seeing someone talk about this in the forum and then looking at my own profile and thinking "huh, Tom must have just quietly fixed that at some point".

I noticed the boot thing this morning too. Pretty confusing. I had to doublecheck map details to make sure there weren't secret capitals or anything because I couldn't figure out what had happened to a player.

It's a weird bug that one - unfortunately the tablesorting script is someone else's code which appears to not allow natural language sorting (i.e. 1,2,3 not 1,10,2,3).

re: boots - they will be back, there was a change made to the way boots were stored in the database, to retrieve them means trawling through the gamelog for every single boot entry which means about 10 mins of server outage which I haven't scheduled yet :)

In the flash player, board description tab, I have an extra horizontal scroll bar that shouldn't be there (text should wrap), and an extra vertical scroll bar on the outside of the player.

In the board designer, new borders can be added with modifiers already in place. I think this happens when:

You use the modifier section to edit an existing border, say by changing the attack to +1.

Then you click back to the borders section and add a new border, it will add the border with the +1 modifier saved from the modifier section.

Expected behavior: no modifier should be used on new borders, since there are no settings for that in the border/add section.

History Viewer does not work for me.

Select Log View.

Click End of Last Turn.

Expected behavior: table shows the moves starting at the last turn.

Actual behavior: table is blank. Clicking the Step Backwards button a few times will start to populate the table but with moves 25, 24, 23 etc. until it shows the start of the game.

Sliding the move slider back and forth gives really bizarre results, with those same moves 1-25 shown seemingly at random and multiple times in a row:

I tested this a few different ways and couldn't get it to happen... can you check again?

Which game / board is this for?

I created an new map and placed 5 territories, then Saved the board:

Select Borders, using Add and Single as the toggle selections.

Clicked on Red, then Black, then Apply to create a 2-way default border between red and black.

Repeated for black/blue, blue/yellow, yellow/green, then green/red.

Select Modifiers

Click red as source, black as target.

Select attack modifier of 1, click apply.  I get the following:

Reload map so I'm back to just territories and no borders.

Select Borders, using Add and Tether as the toggle selections.

Click on black as the Source.

Click on blue, yellow, green, and red as the targets.

Click Apply to create default 2-way borders between black and the other four.

Select modifiers.

Click black as source, any other as target select Attack mod of 1.

Click Apply, I get:

Reload, repeat same steps, this time using Add and Chain as the border options.

Add a circular chain of borders from red back to red using defaults.

Select modify, chose red as source and black as target, attack mod 1, apply:

Sorry. =]

Impressive 11s!

Thanks - has been fixed.

I have to agree with Toaster.. stop fixing things so fast!

I have noticed a bug where if you start placing armies, then turn in cards, and place again you can place armies over the amount you should have. (Which I frequently do because I like to look first to see if I really need the cards.) There must be some checker in place, because you get a warning like "amount placed is over amount you should get". This is usually fine, but in this board:

http://www.wargear.net/games/player/16198

I did not get the check even though I had placed 4 armies on mexico and 8 armies on Northwest Territories. (Placing 12 when I was alotted 8.) When I hit Apply my 4 armies on Mexico disappeared.

Would it be possible to go back to turn 298 so I can place my armies where I want them?

And then can things be fixed so you can't place more then you have when you do the trading cards in the middle?

Thanks -

(Sorry this is going up twice - but on my screen I get am seeing a garbled mess instead of a post - then there is a second copy written over it, but only about 7 characters wide and extends through the bottom of my screen. I would try to insert a picture, but I don't want to make things worse.)

Wow - sorry that is a mess - I now see my post three times. I'm hanging my head in shame.

For what it's worth I just repeated the bug, but this time I placed armies, traded cards, and tried to place more armies. Then I tried to put more armies on the countries that I had already placed some and the number reset - so it seems the program wipes out the original placement, but the graphics are not updated (or backdated or whatever.)
