@shaiboo8 said in Help with Windows 10 Bot:

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I'm also looking for information on hosting a bot on Windows 10. It seems like you've made some progress, so any insights would be appreciated!
By the way, I recently made the switch from Mac to Windows, and I've found the Windows key Reddit sub to be a helpful resource for Windows-related tips and tricks. They might have some guidance on hosting bots or configuring the files you mentioned.

If anyone else has experience with hosting bots on Windows 10, please chime in and share your knowledge. Let's help each other out!

@interestedparty said in Rule clarification: Allied Units in Russia:

@rogercooper perhaps.

But, there Germans/Russians are in a stalemate. US has a huge naval fleet near Australia. Japan destroyed China, but is only thinly holds it. India has a large stack of Infantry in Burma.

UK has 2 tanks and 3 mech infantry in Novosibirsk. With no danger from Germany, they can cross the border into Kansu, if the rules allow it. As the Japanese player, I had not put any troops to guard the Russian border, beyond the 1 Japanese infantry in each territory.

So it looks like a good use of UK troops to invade.

You could add a territory restriction to prevent the British from entering Siberia unless Russia and Japan are at war. However, in the situation described, the British would be better off focusing on Germany than intervening in China.

@panther Thank you for answer and advice on rules & TA engine, send you greetings, Raville

@martymoose

IIRC a savegame always includes the game data of the map version it was created for the first time.
So changes occurring in later map versions will be ignored. So savegames are not updated to current map/engine versions.

@ojdrew

By the way: As an (uncomfortable) workaround you can manually save the game and post the turn summary and the savegame file to the respective forum thread.

Hi there. Really love the Jutland idea - any luck in the meantime with the armament placement?

When you have a new phone you need to transfer the auth-details from your old to the new phone.
Google Auth has a routine for that. Anyway, let's do the same procedure as last time. 🙂

@lafayette

Thanks for responding!

Sadly this file is from months ago and I played many games since then.

@beelee Those are "community" hosted bots. They have passwords. What exactly should not be happening?

@myrd 2.5 for me, havent tried 2.6 yet, Ill try it in a few days to see.

Got it, thank you!

@bayder

My example is a bit more concerned with the opposite, where a CV is =100% able to pick up the plane after combat but not before.

Me and Bayder and Rumrem had a few examples run in a bot.

I think we came to these conclusions, correct me if I'm wrong:

Any move that is 100% guaranteed to be possible after combat in LL is a legal move with the exception of where this results depends on picking planes as casualties as that would be kamikaze planes.

I think I was a bit confused by the nature of the above example in the OP as it splits 2 planes from a carrier that can theoretically hold both of them. But one of them incidentally has to become a kamikaze plane, the mental conundrum now could be deciding which 😉 But thats a whole other thought experiment.

@zlefin actually the bots have a chance at 5 or 6 different auto-saves. "default save", before combat save, after combat save, etc. try them all before giving up on your game in a bot.

@hungry-coyote you mean you can play offline or you can join an existing bot and play, you just cant be the host of a bot?

I need it set at 150%, so if there is a way to change the game let me know.

addendum, the focus of the bug report I would intend to be that you were not able to submit an error report, and _not_that 'game-id' was null. Those are two different problems.

The game-id problem is worth an error report. Though, it requires some investigation into the logs and is rooted somewhere in 2.5. I don't think I have bandwidth to do that, hence I would not bother cutting a ticket for the game-id being null problem beyond what you've reported here already.
