give a gameID example

dalmatia? i dunno

or post a screenshot.

gameID=154058 is the only game he's playing if I'm reading this correctly

DAMN NINJA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

has to be a graphic glitch.

Ninjas?

It is Dalmatia, but it doesn't seem to be a graphic glitch...

it is, ironman. it is always there when dalmatia is occupied, as you could see it as well when the greek held it.

Ahh ok. Thanks to all for the replies, even the irrelevant ones hahaha

Ironman97: For future reference, click on this icon below the map to see map details:

You'll notice that the big map doesn't have those two yellow lines.

Weird, looks very strange, sometimes blue, other times yellow?

Thanks for the report, everyone! Looks like this is a glitch with this variant that happens sometimes. I'll add it to the todo list.

(previous post made by the web dip development team)

For those interested, the problem is that Dalmatia gets an L shape of Numidia's colour. I'll fix it this weekend.

Glad to see that my post fixed a minor glitch! Haha

"DAMN NINJA" someone called?

I reported this bug over 4 years ago:
http://forum.webdiplomacy.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=587

Just need to fix this file:
http://webdiplomacy.net/variants/AncMed/resources/smallmap.png

VDiplomacy has already fixed this file, so you can just copy it from them:
http://vdiplomacy.com/variants/AncMed/resources/smallmap.png

For those curious about why this happens and what those above maps are all about:
The map generation code uses these reference maps to figure out what pixels need to be colored (for the purpose of indicating possession). The reference maps have each territory marked with a unique reference color, making the recoloring of a region as simple as replacing all pixels of its corresponding color with pixels of the desired color. For some reason, the reference image was contaminated by an L-shaped artifact in Dalmatia that happens to be the same color as the reference color for Numidia, hence those pixels get colored as Numidia by the code.

Yebellz: Do you have other bug reports that I don't know about? :) I'd be happy to put them in to the bug tracker.

World Variant:
-vostok to d'durmount urville, no coastline but you can move fleets from one to the other
-you can move fleets from ukraine to poland and vice versa (which have no coastal territories) but you cant move fleets from ukraine to moscow.
-germany does not connect to scandinavia (it does in classic... so why not world?)

A_Tin_Can: In terms of reporting errors, two things would be very helpful.
1. A publically available location of the so-far mythical to-do list. It's helpful to see what's already on the list. If there isn't a unified list and instead you still tell people to visit forum.webdiplomacy.net, then I strongly suggest that you come up with a unified list (perhaps with URL's directing to further details).
2. A more regularly updated Threads and Replies pages of user's profiles. If you want people to report all the errors they've pointed out in the past, it helps if these users can look through a full record of their Forum contributions. For instance, most anything I've pointed out in the last 8 to 5 months I have no way of accessing.

@A_Tin_Can,
#RE: "Do you have other bug reports that I don't know about? :) I'd be happy to put them in to the bug tracker." -A_Tin_Can

No, I don't have any other bugs to submit at the moment.

For all of the issues that I have ever found, I have either: 1) submitted them to the developer forum (forum.webdiplomacy.net), 2) emailed Kestas and/or the mods directly, or 3) submitted a pull request on GItHub with code fixing the issue.

What/where is the current preferred bug tracker for WebDip? Is it just the GitHub page?


@JECE,
#RE: "A publically available location of the so-far mythical to-do list." -JECE

In the past, this sub-forum and its categories:
http://forum.webdiplomacy.net/viewforum.php?f=5
were used as a public todo list and bug tracker, and was the preferred method for the general public submit issues. There was also another forum category for submitting ideas and feature requests:
http://forum.webdiplomacy.net/viewforum.php?f=12
This developer forum doesn't seem to be very active anymore, but it might be worthwhile to review some of that content in case some old issues have been overlooked.

More recently, the code has been hosted on GitHub:
https://github.com/kestasjk/webDiplomacy
which also provides great tools for submitting issues and code update ("pull") requests:
https://github.com/kestasjk/webDiplomacy/issues
https://github.com/kestasjk/webDiplomacy/pulls
These seem to be quite active and appear to be the preferred bug tracker, todo list, and collaboration hub.

Note: you'll see that the latest pull request, submitted by Sleepcap (aka Oliver Auth, owner of vdiplomacy.com):
https://github.com/kestasjk/webDiplomacy/pull/97
contributes code changes that fixes this issue along with a bunch of other updates to the AncMed variant.

yebellz: I knew about the dev. forum, but it didn't really seem very useful to me. As an observer, I don't see any way of knowing whether an issue has been resolved or not (or even, for that matter, whether a proposal has been accepted as part of the to-do list at all.

I didn't know about the GitHub collaboration tools. But you need to sign up to submit issues, right? Or are e-mails sent to webdipmod converted into issues over on WebDip by a mod/admin?

It's free and quite easy to create a GitHub. You just need to pick a username/password and supply an email address (which can be a temporary one).

However, it looks like emailing the mods or just even making a forum post is sufficient.
Looking at the list of issues, it seems like the mods/devs have been quite active about logging issues and requests that they receive from the community.

For example, it looks like A_Tin_Can or some other dev quickly logged the issue on GitHub shortly after this thread was posted.

And I have send a Pull request for a fix already. So it will be fixed very fast.
