Bounces and retreats
I know you can't retreat into a territory where there's been a standoff. Does that include a self-standoff?

Say I move Ukr-Gal and Sil-Gal, and also dislodge an enemy unit in Rum. That unit can't retreat Rum-Gal because of the standoff there...right?

clarification on convoying
Quick question on convoying. For example, if i was to convoy to Sweden from Liovonia, would i issue the convoy order for both the ship and tank to convoy or just one of them? For example, could i issue an order for the ship to move to gulf of bothnia and the tank to convoy to Sweden?

Tell me if you dont hate this
You join a game and it gets seven poeple then you have to leave or do something else. So you try to leave but it wont allow you to leave. I wish it would leave it open of people to leave when they want to pre game. Post comments of stuff that you hate that happens on WebDip. I am not saying I hate Web Dip just this feature.

Why do players have to manually enter disband orders if there is nowhere to retreat?
I've noticed this in a couple of games, and it is a bit annoying. If there is nowhere for a unit to retreat, can't the game just automatically disband it? Why does the player have to input it as an order?

Sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere.
Azralynn (898 D)
10 Apr 10 UTC
The worst is when that player just hits save too instead of hitting ready... SOOO annoying.
KaptinKool (408 D)

It could automatically disband, if you write up the code the Mods might even implement it. I would do it but I have never used PHP before, but if you are proficient give it a shot.
KaptinKool (408 D)
10 Apr 10 UTC
There are time limits for a reason, if you want a faster game, join games with quicker phases.
LDiavolo (493 D)
10 Apr 10 UTC
KaptinKool, that argument makes no sense. Why randomly insert an additional phase in a game if people can't do anything during that phase?

Counter-example, if people didn't gain any supply centres one year, they wont have to enter a "Build no units" order, so why should they have to when they don't have any choice about what happens to the unit that has been attacked?

Also, I'd write the code for it, but sadly I have no PHP knowledge.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
10 Apr 10 UTC
it is to be newbie friendly. So people actually know where their unit went.

The speed of phases is important but not knowing php is no excuse, learn some programming, the are all just simple logic.
LDiavolo (493 D)
10 Apr 10 UTC
Not knowing PHP is no excuse for... Asking a question? I didn't propose a new feature, I was merely asking why the current system functions in the way it does, since it seems a bit pointless.

I can see the point about newbie friendliness, but I don't really think that it is necessary. I mean, if people are understanding of the rules, they are likely able to comprehend what happened to their unit.
orathaic (1009 D(B))
10 Apr 10 UTC
and they don't, i've seen people not order their fleet to convoy their own army because the interface didn't make it clear it was necessary, and the interface already is so friendly it doesn't allow you to enter mistaken orders on purpose (a perfectly usual tactic in face-to-face games...)

I do think it could be replaced with a notification in the global message box. al la: "unit in province had no valid retreat and was destroyed."
Alderian (2425 D(S))

LDiavolo, I believe the primary reason is because this website was built from the ground up. There are still a lot of features that would be nice.
KaptinKool (408 D)
10 Apr 10 UTC
@LDiavolo - I didn't say it was an excuse, I just don't care enough to learn it. Also newbie friendliness isn't why the feature doesn't exist, it is just because no mod has had time to address this issue yet (see previous threads on the issue).
