While we are at it, My goos friebd Trystane got banned forever for saying "Thanks Croat!" In public.

This is a lie. We never ban anyone for something so small, and you should know this. He had a long history of problems.

CPU: Intel i7-10700
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti (old, I know...)
RAM: 32 GB DDR4
Storage: 1 TB SSD + 1 TB HD

Let's see those PC's. I'll compile them all into a chart to rank all of our computers. For simplicity sake, i'll only be looking at CPU, GPU, and RAM for the chart but include more details if you want! Also include if it's a laptop.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti
RAM: 32 GB DDR4
Storage: 1 TB SSD + 14 TB HDD

Is 4chan back? But for real, depends on the details bro, what field, where are you, job details, etc. Hope you're good now though mentally.

Moved to offtopic as well.

Bug Report
Expected behavior
When i play casual or long games with my map 1600's Age of Empires, i expect to be able to play normally after turn 15.

Actual behavior
If you play with the map 1600's Age of Empires and clones/presets of them like Riddle of Steel by Your Laki after turn 15 and with minimum 3/4 players, you can't connect to the game and the chat tab shows a lot of stuff related related to this bug, mainly "error stack trace in x, y". Many guys can actually rejoin to keep paying the game but many others like me can't rejoin to it. Laki said its possible if you try many times reloading the page, but that never worked for me while playing that map in specific-

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Make a casual or normal game on the map with 3/4 people minimum.
2. Play till turn 15 or 20, after those turns you will see all kinds of bug related stuffs on the chat tab and you can't rejoin to play the game.

Information:
Browser: Chrome

Browser version: 99.0.4844.51 (the most recent)

OS: Windows 10

Any other relevant information:

I thinked this stuff was related to the recent bug Dave fixed related to amount of troops on the map, but it seems the bug its still on this specific map.

I tried playing the map in question for 20 turns, but didn't get any errors. Of course it might be just by chance, who knows.

Do you remember the last time it happened? If I can know what date it was, or which game it was in, maybe I can find something in the logs...

Bug Report
Expected behavior
I have chosen Master of Stealth as my strategy of this game https://atwar-game.com/games/?link=7517721995

When I login today the strategy became Lucky Bastard so it screwed up my plan completely

Steps to reproduce the behavior
No special step to reproduce, my strategy was changed by system.

I'm sorry to hear that. It's going to be difficult for me to do anything without any steps to reproduce.... this is the single most important thing for me in any bug report.

I tried the following steps to reproduce on my own:
1) create casual game
2) choose Master of Stealth strategy
3) make a few moves, then leave
4) return to game and check strategy .... still Master of Stealth for me.

I did this twice. 2nd time I made sure that "Lucky Bastard" was my default strategy (under user profile / settings).... still it worked correctly, staying Master of Stealth after I had chosen it.

If there are some different steps to reproduce that I should try, please let me know and I'll try them. Otherwise, for now, I can't reproduce it.

---

For what it's worth I did check the logs, and I see where you did select Master of Stealth (note to self -- see log entry at 2022-03-12 05:10:30.8377). I also see that your default strategy is Lucky Bastard. I can't tell which strategy you actually have in the game right now. Unfortunately it won't show me what strategy you have now until the game ends.

Great Dave !!!
Now it works, I also tried a ruined map, it doesn't always manage to solve it but if you erase all the borders of the nation that has problems and recreate them then it works.

I'll do other tests anyway and if I find any problems I'll let you know

Face that I would like to make a map with the current nations I would have a request that, barring unforeseen events, would only cost you a change of RGB, you could have the inaccessible areas colored blue instead of red so you can do the great lakes of Canada, Russia , etc...

Great, glad it's working for you now

I'll go ahead and mark this bug as "fixed".

Regarding the no-go areas being red, that's another bug I already know about, which will be fixed soon...

Prispeval Dominicano, 18.03.2022 at 12:14

Yes bro this

So.... the reason this is happening is because technically that map is broken. It has been broken since 2013.

When it was last saved in the Map Editor (2013-08-28) there must have been an error, because it never finished saving 100%. Specifically, the background never saved. That's why it looks all black like this:



Is this what it looked like when you last played it?

---

Btw I've made an update to allow "partially broken" maps like this one to continue being played, so you can try playing it again.... but I can't do anything about the missing background, sorry. We would have to get the original map author to re-upload it.

As far as game mechanics goes.... if the game lets you do it, it's legal. (I mean if it lets you without opening your browser console or hacking code -- that's different, obviously.)

We're not going to make any new rules about walls. I don't want to get into the business of judging whether one end is a few pixels too far, blah blah blah. Rewalls, serbwalls, wallfucks t1 -- so what. That's just the nature of the game.

...And for the record it's pretty clear WD didn't do anything wrong here, I'm just talking in general that we shouldn't have rules about walls to begin with. Then we wouldn't have these stupid arguments.

I'm down depending on the game and availability.

Moved back at players request.

Playing since still in the womb

Not sure what the problem could be... i would suggest a bug report

Prispeval Eridans, 13.03.2022 at 07:40

I just did another update of the Map Editor... could you try it again please?

I've fixed what you and WD were talking about, about what happens in Brazil, Siberia, etc etc. Of course there are still other problems, but at least the ones you described should be fixed now.

By the way, if you have an old map that is bugged with this problem you would need to Save again the map and it should correct it. But -- important -- you have to force the Map Editor to re-process the borders. Simple way to make this happen:
1) draw a new no-go zone somewhere. Could be anywhere, could be tiny, doesn't matter, just something new. This makes the Map Editor know something changed with the borders and it will have to re-process them all.
2) save the map.
3) delete the new no-go zone (you don't need it anymore).
4) save the map again. After this the map should be fixed.

Topic:
Trying to login to my account through the Facebook icon on the homepage.

Actual behavior:
When I click on the icon, it brings me to a window saying that the app isn't set up and then redirects me back to the atwar homepage with an error.

Happens on Chrome and Edge

Yes, our Facebook login is blocked, unfortunately. I will be removing it completely in the near future.

There's a long story but, suffice to say, Facebook is making unreasonable demands and I'm tired of them taking this approach where they shut us down first and ask questions later. It's been going on for a couple months now.

All users who have their atWar account login tied to Facebook will need to switch to using a normal username/password login going forward. I'll make an official announcement about this once I've had a chance to remove Facebook completely.

If you, or anyone else, is unable to login and can't reset your password, just send a message to our support team at https://atwar-game.com/contact/ and they'll help you out.

Oof, thanks for the info. Seems like a pretty clear bug... It's on my list now

Note to self. the following client error was logged 4 times between 2022-03-13 07:14:16 and 2022-03-13 07:58:07 (first for Clovis, then Agel, Verperius, and finally Taibi):

|SYSTEM - Error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'TurnActions'), Script: https://atwar-game.com/java/game/atwar.game.min.js?v=202203021744, Line: 1, Column: 410905, Stack Trace: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'TurnActions')

- no related errors in the service logs. (searched 3/11, 3/12, and 3/13)

Well, that's definitely frustrating. I've had casual games bug out on me too, after spending like an hour making all my moves. It sucks

I don't have to tell you about atWar code though -- this will be a fun bug to try and find

I looked at the game and it does indeed appear stuck and permanently bugged... that will be in the lobby for a while I'm sure. Maybe until we move servers again!

Thanks for all the info though, I will go ahead and mark this as [OPEN] as of now and hope we find a solution someday...

That game is closed and gone now, so I have no idea what happened, sorry.

Next time please be sure to follow our Bug Report Format, and if possible include a screenshot. That really helps with tracking things down.

Which map is it? I see a few different ones called King of the Hill...



Is it this one, "Hardcore King of The Hill 1v1 (V2)" the scenario?

Prispeval Sid, 17.03.2022 at 13:45

Okay, thank you for this information

Kicking Siri out of his clan appeared to fix the issue until I put him back... But whatever it is doesn't appear to be affecting his record.

Prispeval sirivann, 17.03.2022 at 02:05

Damn, can we just keep cwing and a admin fix the results later? we have a scenario CW log to know who actualy won a CW in the scenario discord so the clans involved can always keep the data between FO and the Empire, as well as others like the one we did with epic clan.

Atm only the 3 cws shown in the bug report are the glitched games since sid fixed the previous ones when they happened before.

Yeah that's fine you can keep CWing and I'll fix the results later.

@Sid how did you fix these before?

They might be fixed by taking them out of the clan and putting them back in or maybe recounting elo? I'll try them both but i don't recall it ever working.

Hi there, I've seen your bug report, I will get to it but it will take me a while. If it were a quick fix I would do it already, but unfortunately I think this one will be another one of the hard-to-find bugs.

Prispeval RED DEATH, 16.03.2022 at 16:27

Oh no, I did not see this Fundraiser. Can I still send protocoins?

Sure, you can go ahead and send them in and I'll make another donation

I talked to him about a month ago, he's fine but not playing atwar.

Prispeval Adamos, 13.03.2022 at 11:17

Thanks for your apply. I get what you say, only thing I disagree with is it is not pay to win - as anything paid that gives you any advantage makes the title automatically a pay to win. The degree of pay-to-win effect between such games of course differs. Also there are strategies (not sure if good ones) available only to premium accounts. I am not arguing that a premium noob will beat skilled non-premium player.

You made good point with ganging up against - does it happen a lot? Or mostly it's any leading player which is being ganged upon?

It's one way to meet people.... it's a while since i was rank1, but i know i played people at my rank or slightly higher the first few games. Often these were 1v1 - i didn't want to be the one being ganged up on! Rank 5'ish i felt i had enough skill to at least stand a chance, and started playing games with players usually +/- 2 my rank. As soon as you get games like this with 5 or more people, i would say yes, it happens a lot... by then hopefully you know a couple other players, and you can work with them to fight an opponent you feel you can't beat on your own... ♥

(Looked up pay to win.. definition seems you are correct.. i was probably using an urban dictionary definition:

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pay-to-win

i.e. the game isn't so unbalanced that a skilled player can't win... AW let's you play balanced games without paying is what i was thinking.
