Game is bugged, can't proceed

Post by firexed »

Sorry, not sure where else to post this as the Bugs forum is locked

My turn-based game of Troyes (id 8672318) is bugged and can't continue. The game asks me to place a citizen on a building when I already have 4 (max). It could be because one of the players wanted to abandon the game and the game skipped that turn.

I've already reported it. So do I just leave the game hanging ?

If it's turn-based game and you want to play till the end then I don't know.

But you have to know that when someone leaves game without asking for leaving together then he gets penalty for this (loses ELO for example) but then everyone else can leave it to because ELO will not be counted for them. So you can leave without penalty. I think it won't be a problem for programists to fix this bug (you never know when they will have time for this one)

I can't even make a move (game keeps giving me error messages), and I'm already over the time limit. What to do ?

Click on the icon in upper right corner which looks like arrow and door and choose exit. You won't get penalty because you are not the one who ran off the game

If this is turn based and not everyone votes "yes", then maybe last player doesn't know about this situation. Just write to all of them message that thare is a bug and you want to end this game without losing points and give them link to this game (sometimes it's problematic to get back to game in turn based - it's a bug)
