Re: Profile page

Righto no big deal, was just curious how you implemented it, (but I also don't want you to be caught off guard that the AGPL is a share-alike license) Lots of good improvements. :o hope it helps the hobby in Ukraine, I think a Russian language site dedicated to conquering europe is a good place to b...

Re: Defaulting to point and click UI for non-variants

No worries; using a short-work-week to take a whole week to geek out on webDip and cross some things off the list, reminds me of being back in uni :)

Re: Defaulting to point and click UI for non-variants

Hmm, that's weird it does seem to work here. Which game ID is happening for you on, and does it fail with any error message or does it just not do anything?

Re: Defaulting to point and click UI for non-variants

Hmm, that makes sense.. I've made it so the icon right below the map on the dropdown UI opens the point and click UI, instead of opening the large map (which seems redundant at this point), so this should let advanced players use the dropdown UI but open the point and click UI easily I'm not totally...

Sandbox feature

I often hear about the sandbox feature on backstabbr, but I've never really understood the appear / utility. It'd be pretty easy to do, but would people find it useful? What do people use it for?

Just thinking ahead a bit, there's obviously several more important things on the todo list

Re: Defaulting to point and click UI for non-variants

Well.. are those the only things that you can't do via the point and click UI? If so I might as well bit the bullet and add them to the point and click UI

Defaulting to point and click UI for non-variants

The point and click UI is no longer beta, and is the new default for non-variant games. If you prefer the legacy/variant UI it will always be supported, and you can change your default setting in your account settings (Account > Site settings) Any issues / feedback please post below. Note also sever...

Re: webDiplomacy Gunboat League R1 G1 CREATED

Hmm, looks like you left the game before it started. If you check your notices: "You've left WGL_1.1 before it started, and have been returned your bet of 5D."

There is something not right about seeing an AI send the message "Nah I'm gonna kill you". :shock:
Oh trust me.. that made it through the filter :shock: The AI says the darndest things that don't make it through. jmo would ban an unfiltered cicero in a heartbeat!

Re: Austria vs Bots

Interested to see how you go now; I think I've matched it up to the exact config they referred to in that paper but let's see That's the old Fairbot alright! Knows what moves I'm gonna make before I do. I'm not quite dead yet, but it's a struggle to stay afloat :sick: https://webdiplomacy.net/board...

Re: Austria vs Bots

Looks like you knew more than its opening. This and other data are leading me to doubt my original conclusion about the new AI. I don't see how a sophisticated AI on the level of DORA gets smoked like that. Or like this: https://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=550545#gamePanel https://webdiplomac...

Re: the server is not processing games

Doh, same time as before, I wonder what happened to stop games processing for 10 minutes. I'll look into this next week during the next dev cycle, it said 4AM WST ~= 2000 on the 21st UTC

Re: Austria vs Bots

Hmm, interesting. Really like that we can start playing with the bot difficulties now. Will try to see what other FvA options there are for some clues about the opening, worst case scenario I'll reach out to the FAIR team but they're pretty hard to get hold of

FYI the AvF bot is currently down, going to replace with the DORA configuration over the weekend That's great news, Kestas. I'm already looking forward to my thrashing(s) at DORA's hands!

Re: Bots are broken tonight

Kestas, I don't think Fairbot2 is the same AI as the old (2021-22) Fairbot (now "FB"). There's the opening. Fairbot2 has played that Russian/Albanian opening in all 21 of its games as Austria. Even beyond that, it's not super-difficult to predict Fairbot2's moves and outguess it. FB was brutal on t...
