Ross Przybylski: maybe I finally got lucky and can figure out the last sync bug here

[Joshua]

One possibly (based on my experience as a programmer):

- Qyis ended his turn (with 00:00 remaining)
- At the same time, the player who comes after Qyis somehow sees the time remaining out of sync (possibly 10 seconds remaining)
- Ross gets "it's your turn" command from the server too early
- The client-side coding doesn't agree.. and possibly ignored the command.

My brother and I played on the same home network, unranked match based in New Zealand. Our turns are often out of sync, like:

- I see my brother finished his turn with (00:00) remaining
- My brother was still moving on screen, attacking my enemies for further 10 seconds
- Then finally it became my turn and I only had 50 seconds remaining to start with (not 1 min)

Maybe the bug you discovered only occured on 3-4 players game, especially with clients that have slow internet (dial-up)

Josh we solved it, the problem was Ross was running on 1.2.1 and us 3 were running on 1.2.

[Ross Przybylski]

Yeah, sorry bout that guys.  I figured using 1.2.1 was harmless and that the host staggered teams, but its done on client end, so...  Yeah, problem solved.

FYI- for game logs, especially long ones like that, I'd prefer you attach them as .txt files.  Just copy and paste log info into a text file, save file, then attach that file to your post
