Author Topic: Bug with multiplayer game (probably noob questions) (Read 1120 times)

Hello everybody!

Recently I tried to start a multiplayer game with a friend (first time we try a multiplayer game

)
It's a hotseat/through email game

And we got the following problem: sometimes, but not everytime, when one of us load the game and start his turn, he can see all the map, and unit everywhere all the map

in other words the fog of war seems to no longer function, suddenly.

I verified in the "rules of the game" and the fog of war was activated.

I don't know if we did a certain action which caused the bug, but it arrived at least twice (we restarted the first game).

I don't know also if we have to use a patch, of a certain version of the bug to avoid this.
(I checked the patch I could found on the web, but I saw nothing about this).

Thank you for your help

and sorry for the probably noob question

Note: I don't know if it matters, but we did not used any specific balanced map, just a game random map, each of us playing only 1 faction, other factions are AI factions.

It does not match any bug I am aware of, but if you attach the savegame, and a copy of the alphax.txt (or alpha.txt if playing SMAC non-expansion) file each of you was using, I may be able to figure out what's going on.
