Part of this could be my end and part could be your end, but was curious about what you think.

I have 58 and am playing with prompts set to interactive. None of my players could turn them messages off last night in a game. Hitting cn7 didnt silence messages at all. Is this known or is it something I am doing wrong?

Also, under versino 57 i was having no problems or complaints from users, but last night i had several people tell me they were being dropped from the server. Each of them was doing something, ie coloing, in a sector WITH another player coloing as well. This happened to several people with different IP's but the server wasnt dropping everyone when it happened, so I am doubting it was my ISP. Any help?

Was the a fresh bang under .58 or an upgraded game from a previous version? Check your TWErr.log to see what errors are recorded in it and please get back with me.

They are all being ejected from game with the following error:

02/29/2004 05:18:45 PM Ae Soo (5) Halted;
Timeout while attempting access to TWUser.Dat User ejected from game!

This happened numerous times while people were still able to grab colos, but has slowed down considerably since the colos ran out.

Also, what about messages?

The silencing comms appears to be a bug related to having interactive sub-prompts, probably something in the way JP handled setting them up. Thanks for the heads up on it.

It seems that 2 of my corp members get booted out of the game to the server prompt while colonising. (its only when they enter/leave sector 1 at a certain time).(when one enters the sector right after the other, maybe?) both are colonising different sectors, and only get dropped at terra. (no one else in game gets dropped).
this is version .58 on alienbase game E.

Another .58 problem I am noticing. I am playing on a fresh bang of .58 on Alien Base (A game), and when I run a CIM, as soon as an alien hits my fig, It stops the CIM within 40 ports. I have tried turning messages off, but as Bone Collector mentioned, this doesn't seem to work. Just a heads up. Or if I am wrong, and screwing something up, let me know.

Guys, I'd like some caps of the game session crashes. When you get booted from the game, give me about 15 lines before up until the bit where it boots you.

(im evil, but ill see if my corpies can get some screen captures once terra fills up more)

Another problem:
I believe i was the first person to try to enter the Tavern at star dock and I was dropped to server prompt. second try and i got in just fine. I tried to write on the walls in the bathroom and it dropped me to server prompt as well. (4 times in a row)

just another few issues i've noticed with version .58

(I noticed at the Cinema at SD that movie #5 is: "Debbie does Rigel" has it always been this, or is this a little change by JP to see if we would think anything of it? hehe.. (curious))

If your helper has logging capacity, turn that on. That way you can edit it down to a manageable size for Harley and others to read. You might also try to copy and paste the error log from the game and send that along as well.

Heat Sink, you actually go into the Cinema? I can't remember the last time I actually ventured into that thing. And the 5th movie has been around for a while I think.

HHH

Yeah I was waiting forever for that sequel they promised. [:D]

Oh man, and they try to say I need to get a life

I keep having a problem too. Whenever I type CBY really fast from the command prompt, it boots me from the game and I can't get back in until externals run! What gives?

[:D]

You're lucky if you get in at extern... I usually have to wait till midnight... Unless, of course, they coincide.

I don't know what System 78 was running, but I got booted to the system prompt when I tried to enter the tavern, then got back in and went in fine. Didn't get booted when I went to write on the walls, but then wasn't saying anything bad either.

The new revision has a bug that boots everyone from the game the first time they enter the tavern. After that they are ok to enter.
