Game Error or Correct?

game correct error

Game ended and I realized, yes France won, but he shouldn't have. After autumn, my fleet in Belgium should have been able to retreat to Holland, taking France down to 17, and preventing his win. I haven't noticed this before (but it has happened, I am sure).

The check for victory functions in the code shouldn't happen until AFTER retreats, not before, since retreats must always happen if there are retreats.

Thoughts?

I'm not sure but seen as your fleet movement was blocked I think that it cannot retreat, I may be wrong
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
02 Apr 14 UTC
@SYnapse, that's incorrect. Holland did not have a unit or a bounce and I was not attacked from there, therefore I should have been able to retreat to Holland, despite Holland bouncing in North Sea.

Yes, I believe this is a know issue. : /

Well it's not good... it affected the outcome of this game, and possibly the tournament.
Yes, you're correct Chaqa, as ghug said it's a known error and has been around for a few years. Not sure what the status is on getting it corrected.

Not that it's much in the way of consoling, but France would have won anyway in the end from what I can see; there was no way of stopping him from retaking Holland and maintaining the 17 centers he already had.
Chaqa (3971 D(B))
02 Apr 14 UTC
Possibly not. With a fleet in Holland (or retreating to helgoland) I could cut Kiel's support, or take Denmark. Russia and Italy may have been able to get units into place to take Berlin and/or Munich. Possibly.
There weren't enough armies in the vicinity to stop him from holding everything the next year; while I agree that you should have been allowed to try, at least, I don't realistically see where it would have succeeded.

To be absolutely sure, the victory check could be triggered when spring starts, although that would result in redundant build phases.
The issue with checking after retreats seems to be that there aren't always retreats.

Think of "known issues" as just webdip house rules, like being able to talk during retreats and builds.
rdrivera2005 (3533 D(G))
02 Apr 14 UTC
There is no way the solo could be stopped. France have also a retreat from War and a build, so retaking Holl is just a matter of time and he can easily hold the other centers.

Anyway, it´s a serious bug and I can see other situations where this could generate an unfair outcome.

Mods are Dirty So-N-So's
That's right folks, it's another "Dirty So-n-So" game...step right this way. This time we make war in honor of, and in light of, the Mod Team.

Step up if you're man enough...and we need at least two Mods two (in order to mock them). Modern Dip II, WTA, NON-Anon, no-holds-barred negotiations, 36 Hr, blah blah blah.

Is there a feature for the use and creation of games for a classroom?
I am a teacher that wants to use this web game for a simulation for my different classes. Is there a method to create a game for my different classes, or would I have to have several users to join and create different games. Let me know so that I can plan ahead to implement this in my classroom. Thank you.
