No Warning When Running a Turn Without Opponent's Move

Thu Apr 05, 2012 1:36 am

I'm hosting a game, I have AI turned off and I managed to forget to put my opponent's move into the saved-game folder before hitting the run-turn button.

I assume that since the AI is turned off, that I didn't get the popup asking if the AI should take over, but is it WAD that no warning about the missing opponent's move was given?

No, I get the warning when I do that for tourney games. That is, if I try to execute the turn without both player's ORD files, the game asks me if I want to revert to the AI.
Two Rules: 1. The Tournament Director is always right. 2. When the Tournament Director is wrong, see Rule 1.

Hi LS, and you have AI turned off, un-clicked, sent to bed without a story, Athena's in the garden with :sourcil: Adonis? Image

So that means, to insure that I don't accidentally run a turn without both orders being in place, I have to turn the AI on, although I don't want to even use the AI Image

I believe you are correct:

The AI-off switch supresses the warning.

AFAIK, the switch is more for debug/dev while testing bugs and events, so that Athena doesn't bollix up the test... :wacko:
Always ask yourself: "Am I part of the Solution?" If you aren't, then you are part of the Problem!

You don't have to put AI off when playing a PBEM...

I'll never put Athena :love: off again.
