The leader of Sardinia-Piedmont seems to have become enamoured with Ukrainian babushkas and/or rocket launchers and has been neglecting his duties for quite some time. :knuppel2:

S***, are we waiting for me?

I didn't see the turn come in - I'm on it, there are Austrians to invade!

It takes a while for those balloons to find the right jet streams to get back to... uh... Morocco.

Was there a Steam update or somesuch?   Your last savegame turn is not inputting properly and the game is trying to revert you back to AI control.

undercovergeek

sent again - try now

yesterday i removed the ~ from the savegame name and replaced it with _

these were the only circumstances that would let the turn send, ive changed it back to ~ and now the ISP has decided its ok

:tickedoff:

Maybe there was an extra hidden space involved somewhere by accident?

When Mom's file work acts weird, I often find that's a problem: she put an extra space in, and the non-monospace font she uses made it even less obvious.

Sorry about pinging you today, didn't see this first.

undercovergeek

its cool - dont worry - my fault for not seeing it

I tried adding the tilde instead of the underscore on the old save file as well.  Neither one works. 

I tried reverting to an old save and re-running the previous turn again to see if I could then load this save in.  That didn't work either.

Then I tried reverting the game back to v1.03 because that worked in the past but not this time.

I have no idea what's happened between the last turn and this one to cause your save not to work any more UCG.  Tuna's saves still work as do mine and I haven't updated or done anything to my version of the game.

The only thing I can think to try now is to send the host file to one of you and see if you can successfully load everyone's save and process the turn.

I think we're screwed at least until Steam patches to the latest version.

undercovergeek

Yeah - I've tried everything with the save files you sent, nothing happening

Has there been a recent change you and tuna switched to?

Silent Disapproval Robot

No, nothing has changed.  That's why I was wondering if something bad been updated or changed with the Steam version.

undercovergeek

theres no steam update or nothing on the forums to suggest a change or a similar problem

do you want to roll back a turn and see if it rights itself?
