[Solved] Sandbox Not Allowing Different Player View

Hi, I'm using the BGA Sandbox to make a basic 2-player game. From the Interface View, I've been trying to change the view to show from Player 2 side, but I keep getting an error page showing
"Gameserver is locked by configuration ..."
How can I resolve this so that I can switch between both players' views as I continue my development?

I got the same error when trying to change to large screen, do you too?

Hi, there were really few people using BGA sandbox so indeed some things may need revisiting. Unfortunately we are pretty taxed for time right now.
This issue comes from the fact that we have changed the URL format for BGA and sandbox hasn't been updated to take it into account.
Here is the workaround: when switching and getting this error, you should add "1/" after "
https://studio.boardgamearena.com" (this designates the gameserver the table is running on; if it's not there, the URL doesn't land where it should). The URL should look like this to work:
Code: Select all
https://studio.boardgamearena.com/1/bgasandbox?table=79515&viewfrom=e15376&changes=&screensize=ST
Not sure when we'll have time to fix that and deploy a new version of the sandbox, but this workaround should allow you to keep going. Have fun!
