FAQ



 

Why am I loosing all the time?

When you attack the army of an other player, the probability that you loose is 1/2. So - when you attack 5 times an army of your opponent, the probability that you loose at least 4 times is still 19%! This is no bug. Try it again! Perhaps the next time you'll win 4 of 5 fights.
 

Why is my army not moving to the correct place?

When you drag your army to a lake, it will not move.
When you drag the army to an undiscovered field, the army will begin moving there. As soon as this army recognizes that the target location is a lake, it stops, because it's obvious that the army can't reach the aim.
An other reason could be, that your system is overloaded. If the server or the client doesn't get enough time, some armies may stop. In this case choose a smaller map the next time.
 

I've entered the correct registration number but still can't make the map larger.

After you have entered your registration number, you must press the Return key.
Make sure, that no client is logged in: The status-line should say Waiting for login. If someone is already logged in, you can't resize the map.
 

What's the secret of the LEDs in the server window?

The client and the server are sending messages to each other. The LEDs indicate how many messages that are sent by clients are waiting to be handled by the server. Normally, none of the LEDs is highlighted because the server handles incoming messages at once. If this is not possible because there are too many incoming messages, the LEDs will light up.
 

Why is there a white rectangle around the armies that are dragged?

The BeOS(TM) Preview Release 2 doesn't support dragging transparent bitmaps.
