How do I create the settings for a MEGA game?

Post by Secretdi »

When choosing the settings to start a TTR game, it always comes up with the regular USA game, and I'd prefer to play the Mega game.
sending a screenshot of the settings choices for 1910 expansion mode - I'm confused about the first one - " I prefer to play with.. "disabled??
Any suggestiosn what to put for the Mega version?

Your screenshot is not showing up in your post: https://imgur.com/a/7f9Obuz Image embedding is buggy in my experience.

I prefer to play with "disabled" means you don't want 1910. So if you *want* 1910, change that to "I never want to play with" disabled, meaning you always want it enabled.

Assuming you specifically want 1910 and Mega, use this:

Or better yet, if you don't want to parse a double-negative to try to figure out how it's going to behave, use Manual instead of Automatic set-up and the interface will look like this:

Hey thanks a lot! So unnecessarily complicated, so I appreciate the help.
Cheers!

Or from the Game page, just select it in the option like this : https://imgur.com/a/UF88kAV
(make sure the flexible toggle is off)

Thank you for making this. I wish there was a better option for ONLY Mega Game. It takes a lot of attempts to queue up because sometimes others seem to be queueing for Mega Game disabled and matching up to my table

If the switch is off (to the left), you should be matched only with mega games.

I'm having the same problem - all my settings are correct and it works for a bit but then reverts to giving me games that are not the Mega Game. Anyone have any idea how to fix it without having to go in and faff with settings every time it has a breakdown?!
