Board Game Arena

Hello,

I would like to modify the number of players to 6 in my game.
I modified the file gameinfos.inc.php, but when I want to start a game (by using "Play now"), the proposed number of players is limited to 1 - 4 in the page "configuring a new game table". I guess that I miss something.

How can i modify the option "I want between 1 - 4 players" in order to allow 6 players please ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi!

Did you reload your game config from "manage page" page?

Cheers,

yes i did it, but I still have the same problem.

I guess that I also have to modify the file gameoptions.inc.php ? But I don't know how to write here (the tutorial does not explain this part).

thanks again for your help

Hi,

no, you just have to modify gameinfos.inc.php.

Write:
// Players configuration that can be played (ex: 2 to 4 players)
'players' => array( 2,3,4,5,6 ),

Then click on "reload gameinfos.inc.php" from your Manager.

If this still does not work, please write an email to studio (at) boardgamearena.com.

I don't know why, but it's working correctly now (I just did the same things again).

Anyway thank you very much for your fast replies !!

Actually I understood better the problem, I think this is a small bug in BGA.

Previously, my game was configured for 1,2,3,4 players, and I changed the gameoptions to 6 players only.
When you do this, and when you reload the game infos, it's impossible to change the number of players when we launch the game.

Then, I changed the configuration to accept 2,3,4,5,6, and here, when I launch the game, I can click on + and -

Maybe the problem is that when your "previous" configuration was 1,2,3,4 and when you click "+", it becomes 5, which was still an incorrect value (for "6" only) ?

I don't know if this bug also occurs in the public website.
