Title: Postpone Battles for 24 hours.
Post by: Tyr_ on November 21, 2012, 07:07:47 pm
Since the current strat Battles aren't actually happening (once again :rolleyes:) it would be nice if the battles just would be postponed for 24 hours, or, if it takes longer until it works again even 48 so we actually now when the battles are going to happen.

Most of the time, when NA battles get postponed, we just have to wait until they pop up again.

Yeah so a battle is scheduled for 9pm, and battles start up again at 3am and you lose your 1000s of troops.  Go strat!

I have not the slightest clue what this thread is about.

Care to explain? I can only react to bug reports if they actually contain bug reports.

Strat battles was frozen since yesterday. Few hours ago they all went unfrozen & now they are played one by one.

Empire  already lost 1.5 army(nobody shown up), DRZ lost one battle, Nords lost 1 & second is incoming(they have no ppl who could do roster).
Don't know about other casualties.

Heh, maybe they weren't frozen for you, but definitely were frozen for everybody else  :wink:

It was actually played and won (enemy no show) but was not removed from the battle list afterwards and all the following battles got stuck. They remained stuck until today sometime around 15:00ish when they suddenly started working again and happened one right after the other. We did lose this one when it was repeated and some other minor fights too.

that's very close to useable. Next time when that happens, a) send me the ID of the battle, and b) do it via IRC, and c), right after it happens, then I can actually fix it :)

Can you stop QQ? I really don't understand what's your problem. Everything is OK.  According to the plan UIF lost next armies without fight. It's simply mechanism for balancing the zystem so quit your pathetic whining  :)

Yeah, stop the QQ...

Supposed to have a battle yesterday and it bugged out. 30 min ago I log into strat and see that I took a default win or something and got some nice equipment for nothing else than being attacked  :mrgreen:

So I see all the battles that were frozen are no longer listed, so assuming they went through.

I'm guessing there's going to be a lot of unhappy attackers who's battles came and went in 5 minute intervals until the battle list was cleared.

We are the world, we are the testers
We are the ones who make a game better
so let's stop QQ-ing
There's a choice we're making
We're wasting our own lives
It's true we'll make a better game
Just you and me :*

The info on the problem was posted was on Strategus Issues subforum, thread started yesterday by Ginger:

http://forum.meleegaming.com/strategus-issues/battles-stuck/ (http://forum.meleegaming.com/strategus-issues/battles-stuck/)

The more detailed description of the problem was stated here (same thread):

Quote from: Haboe on November 22, 2012, 11:21:50 am
There are 2 problems here:

1) The battles have been moved to unknown date (still says wednesday)
2) the battle does disappear from the battle tab in strategus, meaning there is no way to make changes to the roster anymore, even if the battle takes place at a later date.

The result was actually well predicted by Ginger when he started the therad:

hate to loose our 1800 army if the servers aint reset and the clans told so.
If not there going to be many no shows and angry ppl i guess.

I hope you postpone strat battles for 24.00 from that last battle.

Cheers

Rollback of the battles missed due to bug would be a nice touch.

I reported in IRC, yesterday at 17:50 GMT+1... even highlighted you with "Mollhammet slaps chadz with the fubar strat battle timetable". Meow was online, you weren't.
I do sense a lack of communication...

I got banned from irc by chadz when the Jambi incident happen.

Just because chadz didn't care to talk to me, don't expect mercs to join Irc to talk to someone who never reply.
Thats why i post on forum and if incident like this is why we have Devs and Admins. But they prob to lacy when there not a ban involved  :P
