@iratoric after some more reflection, let's try to nail down the game mechanics first. It does not necessarily have to be all at once. There are probably a couple key configuration options. Specifically, there's a question of how many variations of rules we should support, and what exactly those rules should be. Another key question, is whether retreat should work how subs are supposed to work, where it is 1 to N that can submerge, perhaps similar for retreat so it would not have to be the whole army. Once the mechanics are nailed down, we can then decide how many and what best options to use to encode the rules. Waiting for a nicer generalized framework is likely too much to wait for. With rules nailed down, we can then consider what the least painful way would be to encode the settings, and which key configurations options are needed.

@LaFayette Yea that's basically my question. If people have to restart the game or if it's just a few second blip and the game continues as normal. Idk the answer. It just seemed some people were reacting that they had to restart. Maybe they are jumping the gun and don't know to stand pat a few seconds. Last comment I saw half hour ago or so was someone saying "tomorrow should be better" in reference to the disconnects

@Nothingtoseehere abt to tap out if ur not there

@RogerCooper Thanks, I just made a post to poll people's opinions on how it should work in Development, be sure to give any opinions there

Notable mention, bot hosts are an exception. They need a manual docker pull & restart to pull in changes. This is largely intentional as I would consider them already as legacy. edit: plus, restarting a live game is incredibly disruptive. I wasn't comfortable having the lobby restart without warning until there was the auto-reconnect capability implemented - let alone interrupting a full blown in-progress game.

@trout Howdy, yes, it is Russias turn, but I am getting above error message while trying to solve tha battles. Did you register your email address or are you using a new one? BR

@Trout @Trout said: @alexander @panzerstahl-helm-0 @beelee By the way, you may see me posting some questions on the A&A forum for our Danish leader. That's because when summer started, my son who goes by Mussolini Pizza Emperor on TripleA, decided to want to play his Dad in HRE again. So we have a board game going now which has an interesting twist. Tokyo fell to Allies and next turn Moscow falling to the Nazis. So I need some clarification from him on a few things that are new in this situation Howdy, I indeed saw these post and was searching for that game here to have a look at t he map and front lines. That game sounds a hell of a ride! At which round are you? BR
