Summary: Unified has nonsensical mustering rule

Initial Comment:
There appears to be a new rule in the Unified variant that 99 Green Dragons can muster anything.  This makes no sense as the stack limit is 7.

Summary: Preferences window should restore if requested from menu

Initial Comment:

If one puts the Preferences window to minimized state, and then selects it from the menu, it get's "active" in the (e.g. on windows) taskbar, but it does not come up. Iwas wondering first "why does it not show me the Pref. window now?"

So, when user selects it on menu, if minimized, it should restore itself to the normal restore-size.

This is in r3342.

Summary: Movement Fails

Initial Comment:
Occasionally get an illegal move even if the hex has been highlited as an option. The log says that the destination hex isn't in the list as a legal move. I suspect rather than computing each move based on the connection between hexes, the program has a table of the legal moves for each die roll. The table or the lookup into the table is messed up. Doesn't happen for all hexes although I have noticed a few. This may be related to the empty stack counter tops remaining on the board.

The moves are calculated every time again when needed, even every time
when you click on a creature to move it even if you clicked on it before in
same turn with same dice number. (At least last time when I checked the
code it was still done that way ;-)

Same question: was this a game that had been saved and reloaded?

What is the exact message why it refuses to move the legion there? Does it
just not happen when you click, or comes there a popup message "illegal
move: ...." ?

If possible, please send a saved game and screen-snapshot where this
problem is visible.
Log and console output would be very helpful of course too...

>Summary: Preferences of <by-.....> named players

Initial Comment:

 for some reason, colossus is not saving 
my preferences of game-play - 
for example, I want scale size : 8
instead of the default 11
I'm running generic PC with Win XP, 2 gigs ram

I have been digging thru all the readme docs
I can't find where/how to force colossus
to remember & save my preferences of game-play

I'm installing & running colossus inside
the same Dir as Java itself -
should I re-install it into a subordinate dir?

 I love both the boardgame Titan
and the computer game Colossus 
thank you guys all for your good work

 one wee improvement, perhaps -
would it be possible to create
a "Pantheon - 12 " version to equal
the "Beezelbub - 12" version?

 please email me at:
bon...@at...

Message:

Finally we found out why the Preferences are not saved/restored for him:

Bonniee used the "<by-color>" or "<by-type> placeholder type of name,
instead of typing an own name there. 

For this temporary names Colossus does not (and cannot) restore the
Preferences (actually it still does write them to a file, which is totally
bogus then).

So, needs to be fixed:

1a) Prevent name type <by-color> and <by-type> to be chosen for human
players,
    or
1b) Upon selecting so, show a warning dialog informing about the fact of
non-storing

2) For players where preferences won't be loaded they should not be saved
at all.
   E.g. after many rounds of stresstest I have dozens of useless cf
files,
    Simple1, Simple2, ..., Simple6, Rational1, ... Rational6, ... (all
types),
    and for each color...

or perhaps

3) Enable/implement a "Load Preferences" feature??


Renaming this tracker item from 
  "how-to-save-preferences ???"
to
  "Preferences of <by-.....> named players"

You say, you "have installed" (i.e. downloaded it). You could do the
following trick:

Assuming you are on (whatever) Windows, you could force Colossus to
consider some other directory to be your "users home directory."

Edit the command in it - between "java" and "-Djava..." insert the
following:

  -Duser-home=<the path you want>

E.g. I made it like this (all in one line, even if this tracker wraps
it):

java -Duser.home=C:\Temp\Here 
-Djava.util.logging.config.file=logging.properties -Xmx128M -jar
Colossus.jar %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

And then started the game with "run.bat". And voil:

C:\Temp\Here>dir .colossus
 Volume in drive C is SOMEHOST
 Volume Serial Number is 0000-0000

 Directory of C:\Temp\Here\.colossus

30.08.2008  12:19    <DIR>          .
30.08.2008  12:19    <DIR>          ..
30.08.2008  12:19               924 Colossus-katzer.cfg
30.08.2008  12:19               335 Colossus-server.cfg
               2 File(s)          1 259 bytes
               2 Dir(s)  12 332 052 992 bytes free

C:\Temp\Here>

(Under unix/linux would have to edit the file "run" and start with "./run"
instead, naturally...)


Good luck!

BR,

Clemens

-- In entry before I the posted the reply which --
-- I got from but submitter I got by email      --

As I said, Colossus *is* saving them every time the Pref. window is closed
(perhaps only if anything was changed), and when the board is closed. Scale
was saved but not reread - which is already fixed, for next release.

If you notice any other setting that it forgets, please name it
specifically, then I will verify it. But I am pretty confident that at
least all checkboxes are properly saved.

You can even verify the saving yourself - change something, and close the
preferences window, and then look what it saved into the file. OK, which
file...

In MasterBoard, open Help => About. It displays several things, one of
them is "user.home". That is what Colossus considers to be your "Home
Directory" (for the login user on the Computer).

In your computer, go to that directory. There should be a directory
.colossus (or perhaps .Colossus, depending on OS). Colossus will create it
there on startup if it needs it.

In there are various files "Colossus-<something>.cfg".

So, when Colossus saves your preferences e.g. for player "Mike", it will
save them to 

   <user home directory>/.Colossus/Colossus-Mike.cfg

Consequently, if you happen to play sometimes with different playernames,
they have different preferences. Which might appear to you as "sometime it
remembers and sometimes not".


BTW: One of the files will be "Colossus-server.cfg" which contains the
"global" settings (what you select in the Game startup dialog: number and
type of players, autosave, balanced towers, Variant, etc.)

We can't rely on "inside the installed colossus dir itself" approach,
because may play Colossus just via Java Web start (just clicking the pink
icon on the colossus home page) and then there is not such directory "where
Colossus is installed" at all.

If you use "File => Save game", or have Autosave on, it will create a
directory "saves" inside this ".colossus" directory and save the files
there.


So: start Colossus, change some preferences, close the Prefs. window, and
check whether it has changed the file (you can simply open in a text editor
(e.g. notepad). E.g. one of my files looks (only part of it):

----clip---
#Colossus config file version 2

Auto-scroll\ to\ end=true

My problem with this bug is that Colossus is NOT saving the preferences
correctly window scale size does not get remembered, certain other tweaks I
have for the beezelbub 12 game do not get remembered - and sometimes I have
to reset the entire colossus game back to beez from the original defaults.

I *suspect* that one or another privacy mode of one of my programs is
causing this problem - because the same thing sometimes happens to
Civilization IV - but I don't know where/how colossus saves *its* defaults
to prevent this.

I suspect the best fix for this would be some way to *force* the save &
load of preferences from/to a certain DIR and/or a certain file - the
default being a prefs.txt file inside the installed colossus dir itself.

You can't find any info about how to do that it because there is no 
need to do anything for it - the preferences are saved everytime 
when you close the Preferences window, or at latest when you close 
the MasterBoard (to QUIT, or start a new game, all the same).

But that's a good point, we should mention this fact in docs.

All your other preferences (auto***, Color, Battle, ...) should work
fine.

BUT ...

the scale value of the Preferences ... actually it is _saved_ but not 
re-read on next start. Just the previous bug is about same issue :)

I fixed that already (in repository), but there is no public build yet...
so you still have the wrong behavior.

(Hm, for you default is 11? I thought it is by default 15 and have thus
used that one as "if it's not set so far set initialize it to 15".... Hmpf
:-/

----------

It does not matter where you install or run Colossus.

----------

Yes it *would* be possible to make Pantheon 12 -- if someone would
do the laborous design part (which hex is which land, which creatures
and their skills, how many of each).

I myself rather do the programming part, fix bugs and so on :)

*Please* make a feature request for it - if it is mentioned here just
as a side note inside a bug it gets easily forgotten.

-----

TO DO here: update docs to tell this fact that preferences are saved 
automatically (and get into effect immediately when changed - and can't
do "cancel" to get back to previous set of settings.

Summary: Game unplayable on newer JREs

Initial Comment:
When using Sun's JRE 6, the game will not create a playable fight.

I can play on the mainboard just fine, but whenever a fight occurs, it spawns the battle board, but doesn't spawn any of the creature tiles. 

When in this state, the game is responsive. It hasn't hung. I can click on any of the menus, or right-click any of the stacks on the mainboard and receive their contents.

The battle board just seems to not get populated with the needed creatures. It shows the terrain, but no creatures.


I don't have this problem with JRE 1.4. So, it seems like the only difference is connected with the new JRE.


If you need additional log output, please let me know. I can duplicate this problem very easily.

The last log messages are always similar to this:

Brown's turn, number 4
2 creatures are split off from legion Br06 (Hourglass) into new legion Br03 (Chest)
Legion Br03[Gargoyle, Gargoyle] is eliminated
Legion Br03 (Chest) recombined into legion Br06 (Hourglass)
Phase advances to Move
Brown rolls a 6 for movement
Legion Br06 (Hourglass) in 135 moves to Brush hex 134 entering on Left
Phase advances to Fight
Br06 (Hourglass) (Brown) attacks Rd04 (Gong) (blentz) in Brush hex 134

The symptoms sounds very much the same as described in 
the recent entry by "Nobody"  2007-12-27 01:01 in 
 1813362  	  Battle hangs game, perhaps due to Java 1.5 ?

(the original creator of that bug informed me that this
last entry was NOT from him.)

---clip---
... ,  but none of the creatures appear.  
The log window shows nothing interesting(
which you might want to fix ), 
but the Java console gives the following error:

Please read what I wrote there. In short, I suspect that the
"GTK Style" is causing this. Check/compare which you use, and/or 
try another one.


I made a "trunk build" from latest version where the code
involved above check some things and prints more info to 
the log.  
Can you please run the Colossus from via this web start link:

http://colossus.sf.net/trunk-head/Colossus-trunk-head.jnlp

(you could find that link from 
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/colossus
    => Wiki => left side "ExperimentalBuilds"
       => .... 
             Trunk builds

             We now have a separate JNLP file 
             Colossus-head-trunk.jnlp for running the latest ...


Make sure it really says "downloading..." (and does not take old from
cache),
- you can tell the difference by the fact, that the new one has a
"Settings" menu.

This new one writes some more stuff to the log, perhaps the changes even
fix it, or perhaps it throws the NPEs then somewhere else :)

---

Summary: 

1) check which Look&Feels your users use,
   try to use a different one,

2) try the experimental build above.

Clemens

Finally had a chance to narrow down the problem a little more.

On my Fedora 8 workstation, the game works fine if I run javaws as root,
but it does not work when run with a normal user's account. I do have NFS
home directories, so that may be a complicating factor as well.

Summary: Game unplayable on newer JREs

Initial Comment:
When using Sun's JRE 6, the game will not create a playable fight.

I can play on the mainboard just fine, but whenever a fight occurs, it spawns the battle board, but doesn't spawn any of the creature tiles. 

When in this state, the game is responsive. It hasn't hung. I can click on any of the menus, or right-click any of the stacks on the mainboard and receive their contents.

The battle board just seems to not get populated with the needed creatures. It shows the terrain, but no creatures.


I don't have this problem with JRE 1.4. So, it seems like the only difference is connected with the new JRE.


If you need additional log output, please let me know. I can duplicate this problem very easily.

The last log messages are always similar to this:

Brown's turn, number 4
2 creatures are split off from legion Br06 (Hourglass) into new legion Br03 (Chest)
Legion Br03[Gargoyle, Gargoyle] is eliminated
Legion Br03 (Chest) recombined into legion Br06 (Hourglass)
Phase advances to Move
Brown rolls a 6 for movement
Legion Br06 (Hourglass) in 135 moves to Brush hex 134 entering on Left
Phase advances to Fight
Br06 (Hourglass) (Brown) attacks Rd04 (Gong) (blentz) in Brush hex 134

The symptoms sounds very much the same as described in 
the recent entry by "Nobody"  2007-12-27 01:01 in 
 1813362  	  Battle hangs game, perhaps due to Java 1.5 ?
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1813362&group_id=1939&atid=101939

(the original creator of that bug informed me that this
last entry was NOT from him.)

---clip---
... ,  but none of the creatures appear.  
The log window shows nothing interesting(
which you might want to fix ), 
but the Java console gives the following error: 


INFO: Phase advances to Fight

---clap---


Please read what I wrote there. In short, I suspect that the
"GTK Style" is causing this. Check/compare which you use, and/or 
try another one.


I made a "trunk build" from latest version where the code
involved above check some things and prints more info to 
the log.  
Can you please run the Colossus from via this web start link:

http://colossus.sf.net/trunk-head/Colossus-trunk-head.jnlp

(you could find that link from 
  http://sourceforge.net/projects/colossus
    => Wiki => left side "ExperimentalBuilds"
       => .... 
             Trunk builds

             We now have a separate JNLP file 
             Colossus-head-trunk.jnlp for running the latest ...


Make sure it really says "downloading..." (and does not take old from
cache),
- you can tell the difference by the fact, that the new one has a
"Settings" menu.

This new one writes some more stuff to the log, perhaps the changes even
fix it, or perhaps it throws the NPEs then somewhere else :)

---

Summary: 

1) check which Look&Feels your users use,
   try to use a different one,

2) try the experimental build above.

Regards,

Clemens

Finally had a chance to narrow down the problem a little more.

On my Fedora 8 workstation, the game works fine if I run javaws as root,
but it does not work when run with a normal user's account. I do have NFS
home directories, so that may be a complicating factor as well.

Summary: Lock-up reloading large saved game

Initial Comment:
Playing Abyssal9 Titan with one human player and 8 
AIs, I saved the game and the resulting file was 285 KB 
in size. When I attempted to reload the game, Colossus 
locked up. (JRE 1.4.1 I think - can't check version right 
now - on win2000. Colossus version 20030317, I think 
again.)

I believe the problem has to do with the size of the saved 
game file, specifically the game history. After having a 
look at the contents of the file, I tried modifying the file 
to allow it to load. Initially, I just deleted huge chunks 
out of the history, which caused other crashes while 
trying to predict splits, but then I went through the file 
and modified the history to be much shorter while giving 
equivalent information for split prediction purposes. It 
took a lot of work, but I eventually had a file that would 
reload correctly (and I could then play on to finish the 
game).

I still have a copy of the original save file, which I can 
use to reproduce the problem on my machine, and 
which I can provide for whoever wants to attempt a fix. I 
might upload it later, from my home PC.

It has occurred to me that I could probably write a new 
split prediction algorithm based on the approach I used 
to modify the save file, which would allow a much 
shorter version of the history to be saved and might 
actually make the predictions better - there seem to be 
a few cases in which the split predictor doesn't work 
things out that I can for sure. But don't count on it any 
time soon.

I am guessing this is an instance of the bug where game wont 
load when a play has no available legion markers (common in 
abyssal9 for that AI).

If that is the case it should be closed as fixed. If travis is still 
around, he should check. Otherwiese I would love a copy of 
the save game to debug.

This is a known problem, though it's rare in practice to
make savegames big enough to cause it.  Increasing Java's
heap size might help -- Colossus currently uses 128MB. 
(When it used to be 32MB, this problem was much more visible.)

Yes, the current history format is full of redundant data. 
I'm working on streamlining it.  See docs/XMLprotocol.txt

Also, there's a known issue with JDK 1.4.1 that causes
memory leaks with JDOM.

Summary: BeezeGods 12 variant playtesting

Initial Comment:

 Clemens recommended I use the bug tracker for this -
sorry if I disturb anyone else ......

 I've been playtesting Beezegods 12 a lot 

1) the deities & other "lords" including the phantom
are teleporting out of hellmouth &/or circle -

2) do the deities & other lord types (archdevil)
recruit downward on the ladder ??? I'm not seeing this
happen .....

3) is there a way to develop hints or better AI tatics
in the battlemaps to use terrain & creatures more 
effectively?  i.e. use higher terrain properly,
use non-recruitable units more aggressively ???

(I know I'm nitpicking on the stupid AI's -
I'm running 11 ai's half Milvang half Random
and they *still* make very bad tactical mistakes)

4) may I reccomend having 
 2 knights recruit aphrodite
 3 knights recruit apollo
 3 basilisk recruit hermes
 4 basilisk recruit dionysous
   the wraith lineup as is becomes too powerful
stacking Beezelbub, Hermes, Dionysous with 4 Wraiths
looks a little awkward....
 
5) are there hints for the AI's to correctly
recruit the deities ??? I'm seeing Aphro & Apollo

Message:

Changed the recruiting conditions again, now mostly based on 2 or 3.

Hera and Hades which are rather equally strong based on 2 Colossi and 2
Mammoth,
and Zeus, strongest of all, with 3 Lords or 4 Demilords.

Fiend downgraded to be only DemiLord due to that.

Deities, or in general in Hellmouth, one cannot recruit downwards. Info
about that
added in Readme, also in other affected variants.
Teleport out of Abyss, Hellmouth, ... also fixed.

So, all mentioned issues are now resolved except:

Recruit Hints file is still missing.

Setting this to remind.

Thanks for the feedback! Here "some" comments:

> - I imagine they don't have to be the same type (ie 4 arch mages)

YES they have to be the same type. We don't want to let someone get 
this strong creature too easily, would we? ;-)

No, seriously: Colossus knows only "N times the same" concept of
recruiting.
E.g. mixed recruiting (1 X + 2 Y) would be quite some extra work.
And the "4 Lords" is resolved already during loadinto "4 X, 4Y, 4 Z or
..." 
i.e. into a tree-representation of existing concrete creatures. 
(not abstract concept like lord or demilord).

---

I've been discussing the recruiting conditions quite much 
with Bonnie recently, and changed quite frequently...

> Game doesn't offer Estia when I have 3 Fiends in the Hellmouth.

Right. Readme says wrongly 3. Recruiting xml file says 4.

If you click on a creature in caretakers stack (!)  
   (not full recruit tree window... should add it there too)
it will tell you what it expects to recruit that certain creature.

[The recruiting tree / window is basically unreadable for those cases,
IMHO]-:

So right now for Estia it says there:  4 Fiends.
Actually... it says:

in Hellmouth     by 3 Devils, by 1 Fiend
in Hellmouth     2 recruit a Beelzebub, 4 recruit a Estia, 1 recruit a
Fiend, 4 recruit a Hades

Hm. So a Fiends pile can get Beelzebub, Estia and Hades. Not good...
(this is, because Fiend is a Lord. It's the only Lord that is
recruitable,
all other Lords are acquirables. Or exist only once or something).

Furthermore, Hades is from skill and capabilities basically identical to
Beelzebub
(13-4 magic missiling Lord). SO this is even more redundant...


I had suggested to Bonnie the following:

---clip---

I tried to make it balanced in that sense, that "N Mammoth" should 
give something somewhat equally strong as "N Colossus".

Hera and Hades are "quite similar". Zeus is the strongest, so should be
hardest to get.

What about:


4 Mummies or 4 Lichs    recruit Athena - 10 4 					=> 40
3 Mammoths              recruit Hades - 13 4 magical rangestriker 	=> 52
3 Colossi               recruit Hera - 18 3 flyer 				=> 54
4 Lords                 recruit Zeus - 15 4 magical rangestriker 		=> 60



Mammoth are "stupid" (24 x 2), so they earn a "...-4" god.

And in a pile of Colossus is already enough ( ... - 4), so they get only
the 18-3.

Overall, is the "needs 4 or 3 " too much? Would "some with 3, some with 2"
be better?


2 Knights recruit Aphrodite 6 4 flyer
3 Rangers recruit Apolo - 7 4 rangestriker
2 Wraiths recruit Hermes - 9 3 flyer
3 Basilisks recruit Dionysous - 10 3 flyer, rangestriker
2 Phoenixes recruit Dimitra - 11 3
2 Fiends recruit Estia - 9 4
3 Golems recruit Ares - 13 3
2 Hydrae recruit Poseidon - 15 3
2 Unicorns recruit Hepfaestus - 20 2
2 Manticores recruit Artemis - 16 3 rangestriker 
3 Mummies or 3 Lichs recruit Athena - 10 4 			=> 40
2 Mammoths recruit Hades - 13 4 magical rangestriker 		=> 52
2 Colossi recruit  Hera - 18 3 flyer 				=> 54
2 Lords recruit Zeus - 15 4 magical rangestriker 		=> 60

or even:

2 Lords OR 3 Demilords recruit Hades - 13 4 magical rangestriker 		=> 52

---clap---

Hm. I'd like to make Fiend only a demilord.

But then stay with 3 Lords and 4 Demilords. Zeus is really a killer
(15-4),
so that should not be sooo easy to get (getting e.g. 2 angels into same
pile
is not that hard.)

3 Lords is not too easy, but doable.

4 Demilords... Imp is already demilord, and you get that for free in
Hellmouth.
(ok, then you have Zeus in a pile of dumb imps, but hey, Gods are meant to
summon;-).

So I think Lord and Demilords numbers should be 4 and 3.

What do others think?

Message:

1) is now fixed.

2) no, the Gods cannot recruit down. That is the same principle as
"Guardian in Tower cannot recruit just anything" (otherwise, 3 Colossus
make guardian, if you have Guardian could you recruit Colossus? No). Also
an explanation for that added in the Variant README file.

3) Easy way to develop hints for AI: I don't see that happen in near
future.

4) Right. I have now totally rearranged the recruiting conditions for the
Gods. There is so many creatures as choices, that we don't need to
duplicately use them; i.e. there is no "double use", that 2 X make this and
3 X make that. See the Variant Readme for details.

5) NO. I still haven't done the BeelzeGod12 hints file. Once I've done it,
you will hear it from me...

0) Don't worry, NO, you don't disturb - that's what the tracker is made
for.

1) "are teleporting out of hellmouth &/or circle -"

   yes, that is a bug. Colossus errornously uses the "has_startlist"
property
   to decide whether teleport is allowed, instead of the is_tower.
   Hm. Perhaps I should just fix it quickly ;-)
   Also applies to Beelzebub itself, and even Pantheon (Mantio), I think.

2) "do the deities & other lord types (archdevil) recruit downward on the
ladder "

They should, but you are right: they don't. 

If you open caretaker window, and the click on e.g. aphrodite and ranger,
you can see the who recruits who. And indeed the recruiting down the
ladder 
is missing. Should make a separate bug report about it.


3) "is there a way to develop hints or better AI tatics..."

I don't see a feasible way.


4) Agreed, that with the Wraith. If you have 4, you can get all 
of the 3 other power monsters. Didn't see it from that angle so far.

Yes, I can change it to your suggestion.

5) No, I still haven't made the AI hints... so they don't go for them.
   I will send you a mail when I did it. 
   As said, right now I try to get Colossus working again,
   because since the august build for some players it hangs in 95% of the
   games, sooner or later.

Summary: BeezeGods 12 variant playtesting

Initial Comment:

 Clemens recommended I use the bug tracker for this -
sorry if I disturb anyone else ......

 I've been playtesting Beezegods 12 a lot 

1) the deities & other "lords" including the phantom
are teleporting out of hellmouth &/or circle -

2) do the deities & other lord types (archdevil)
recruit downward on the ladder ??? I'm not seeing this
happen .....

3) is there a way to develop hints or better AI tatics
in the battlemaps to use terrain & creatures more 
effectively?  i.e. use higher terrain properly,
use non-recruitable units more aggressively ???

(I know I'm nitpicking on the stupid AI's -
I'm running 11 ai's half Milvang half Random
and they *still* make very bad tactical mistakes)

4) may I reccomend having 
 2 knights recruit aphrodite
 3 knights recruit apollo
 3 basilisk recruit hermes
 4 basilisk recruit dionysous
   the wraith lineup as is becomes too powerful
stacking Beezelbub, Hermes, Dionysous with 4 Wraiths
looks a little awkward....
 
5) are there hints for the AI's to correctly
recruit the deities ??? I'm seeing Aphro & Apollo
show up frequently on the AI side, but very few
of the other deities ....
 
Sourceforge won't allow me to upload/attach 
a saved game because it's too large .........
(50 turns or more - I'm delibrately waiting
so the AI's have a fair chance of recruiting Deities)

Message:

1) is now fixed.

2) no, the Gods cannot recruit down. That is the same principle as
"Guardian in Tower cannot recruit just anything" (otherwise, 3 Colossus
make guardian, if you have Guardian could you recruit Colossus? No). Also
an explanation for that added in the Variant README file.

3) Easy way to develop hints for AI: I don't see that happen in near
future.

4) Right. I have now totally rearranged the recruiting conditions for the
Gods. There is so many creatures as choices, that we don't need to
duplicately use them; i.e. there is no "double use", that 2 X make this and
3 X make that. See the Variant Readme for details.

5) NO. I still haven't done the BeelzeGod12 hints file. Once I've done it,
you will hear it from me...

0) Don't worry, NO, you don't disturb - that's what the tracker is made
for.

1) "are teleporting out of hellmouth &/or circle -"

   yes, that is a bug. Colossus errornously uses the "has_startlist"
property
   to decide whether teleport is allowed, instead of the is_tower.
   Hm. Perhaps I should just fix it quickly ;-)
   Also applies to Beelzebub itself, and even Pantheon (Mantio), I think.

2) "do the deities & other lord types (archdevil) recruit downward on the
ladder "

They should, but you are right: they don't. 

If you open caretaker window, and the click on e.g. aphrodite and ranger,
you can see the who recruits who. And indeed the recruiting down the
ladder 
is missing. Should make a separate bug report about it.


3) "is there a way to develop hints or better AI tatics..."

I don't see a feasible way.


4) Agreed, that with the Wraith. If you have 4, you can get all 
of the 3 other power monsters. Didn't see it from that angle so far.

Yes, I can change it to your suggestion.

5) No, I still haven't made the AI hints... so they don't go for them.
   I will send you a mail when I did it. 
   As said, right now I try to get Colossus working again,
   because since the august build for some players it hangs in 95% of the
   games, sooner or later.

Summary: AI spinners wrong intialized

Initial Comment:
In Game Setup dialog, if one modifies the AI timer spinners a 2nd (or more) time, the spinner dialog opens always with the value which was loaded from cf file when the Game Setup dialog was displayed first time (i.e. loaded 10, set to 20, close it, shows 20 (and 20 will probably be used during game); click again to change it, now it's again/back to 10.

and on turn 4 the stack recruited *Ares* into battle
against me.  ????!!!!????!!!!????

I'm still trying to figure out what is
the maximum size in KB that I can upload

I tried to reproduce that. Attacked a bunch of hydras in swamp.

did let the AI fight it - AI did not recruit Ares either.

Are you sure the AI *recruited* - as opposed to: AI was attacker and did
*summon* the Ares (it's a summonable). You can see it from EventViewer
window what type of action it was.

As I can't reproduce this, and until there is any new input (e.g. a

Summary: After game completed, start new one: clients don't come in

Initial Comment:
When I clicked on the "Done" button on the main board after the game ended, it displayed a dialog with several options--Quit, Start a new game, etc.  I selected "Start a new game" and it popped up the usual new game dialog.  After I selected "New Game" from that dialog, it did something it's started doing ever since the recent public release--it acted like it was waiting for a bunch of network clients to connect.  The only way I've been able to stop it from doing that once it gets started is to exit, and then use the Windows process manager to kill all the running javaw.exe processes.

Message:

> I clicked on the web start icon a total of once.

Then it's most likely it did not even download the newest build.
Seems it does that always only on 2nd click. 
(Don't blame me, blame Java and JWS developers ;-)

And the old build naturally still behaved wrong.
[you could see from Colossus0.log (or 1.log or 2.log) 
which version it did start for you].


> while the remaining AI's were still squabbling over ...

Ah... Hm, right, this might cause issues; it's funny,
I was subconciously aware of that and thus usually don't do that
(although I had thought more than once to do something against it),
but I didn't realize that doing so is naturally to happen to
"real players" (unless they would use the "AIs stop when humans dead" 
option).

If one plays several in same instance of Colossus (always just File-New)
then the "upon QUIT, trigger System.exit" change does not help, 
 -BUT-
I had also added the "close socket and stop listening when all cliens
logged on"
so I would expect it to work also for that File-New case.

A once started Colossus should map to one and only one javaw process.
Except if Java does something very special on your HW / OS version.
(Win98?)
[like: "Win98 does not know threads, so it uses real OS processes for each
thread"
or something insane like that].
Not that I could really believe it's that, but well... you never know, ...
Microsoft.


So I am still optimistic that the recent corrections will cure it, once
JWS
downloads the new version correctly for you. Let's see.

I cannot imagine a way how three Colossus instances stay alive if you use

- after Game Setup dialog came up
- after Game has fully started, somewhere in turn 1 or 2
- before you click QUIT, open process window look how many there are

Do you play only with "1 Human + a number of AIs"?
You do not use "Network clients", do you?

I recreated this again with the latest public testing build.
Same as before, though I was able to select "New Game" from the File menu
a couple of times successfully, after I lost, while the AI was still
playing against itself.
On the third or so new game, I got the client connect window.
The Process Manager showed 3 javaw.exe processes.
I will attach the Java Console from the game that opened the client
connect window.  I don't have console output for the game(s) that failed to
exit properly.

Message:

I have committed now several changes which target to this,
the whole shutdown procedure etc. Mostly:

1) Once all clients did connect, server stops accepting and
   closes the server socket.

2) Whenever user selects "Quit", this triggers a demon thread
   which sleeps 10 seconds, and in case the JVM is then still 
   alive ( = did not terminate by itself as expected) it will
   do a System.exit(1) together with a relevant log message.

So in any case, following games should not be face the problem
any more that the new clients wrongly connect to old server
socket and the new started game/server waits hopelessly for them.

(not visible in public build nor public testing build yet).

Well it simply closes all windows (that's easy) but that does not say much
about the threads ;-)

hm.... so somehow it does not release the socket, and then perhaps
the old process grabs some clients and sometimes the new one, random
or something...



Hm, as first aid I probably will make the main() do a real System.exit()
to forcefully exit the JVM. Note that this means (I guess) that also
the Console window will be gone with that.

And I will delete the old ExperimentalBuild and ExperimentalBuildWork
so there is only the Public Testing Build and the official Public Build
(not yet)...

I'm not sure how I managed to enter the duplicate bug.  I have closed it.
Here is a minimal account of how I reproduced it on 2008-09-22:
I killed all the javaw processes, started a game of Abyssal-9, decided I
didn't like the board, and selected "New Game" from the File menu.  I then
selected Abyssal-6 and pressed "New Game".  I got a message box saying:
"ConnectException ("Connection refused: connect") during creating Socket to
connect to 127.0.0.1:26567.
(This probably means: Either you have given wrong Server and/or port, or
tried it too early and server side wasn't up yet.)"
I got this window four times.  At the same time as the first occurrence of
that window, another window popped up saying "Starting up, waiting for 4
clients at port 26567"
I pressed that window's "Abort" button and it closed.  Then, a couple of
minutes later, the game creation window reappeared and this time I was able
to start my game successfully.
I have attached two versions of the Java Console output.  The first is its
state before the new game window reopened.  The second is after I
successfully used the new game window to start a new game.

This is the behavior I reported in the bug.  In the past I haven't seen
the new game window reopen after the long pause, probably because I go
fairly quickly to stop the javaw.exe processes.

BTW, if you have Java Web Start Console open, the javaw processes will 
not "terminate" themselves, until you close the console.

With Colossus itself I have done lot of work so that it *does* clean up
all threads and so on when a game is (cleanly) over; when something did
hang,
and/or as you describe above, it waits for clients but they don't come,
then there is clearly something *fishy* so then it's not so surprising
that it 
does not "Exit()" by itself. 

We could privide a "do the hard way exit" button somewhere (which does
then
the brutal System.exit()) if that helps...

(Closing the masterboard and say Close/Quit, and board does not go away,
selecting Quit a second time, you will get this "Nice Great" message
as in (your?) other bug report.

For clarification:

Yes, it's waiting for clients, but not necessarily for network clients.
The architecture of the game is such, that all clients (local and remote
ones) connect via the socket. Only that, usually, if it's local clients,
this goes so fast, (and David has built in a 1-second-delay, so the window
would pop up until after one second, and not at all if it gets notified by
main prog to close again before the 1 sec is over), that you don't even see
it.

Try this: Start a game with 4 AIs, 1 network and 1 human. You will see the
same: waiting for 6 clients, 5 connect, then it continues to wait for the
network client. In this clean case the "Abort" button in bottom of
StartupProgress should work fine.


So you say also Abort does not work? Or, on abort it goes back to Game
Setup dialog, but for "New Game" same happens, and if you Quit from startup
dialog, it does not terminate, but you have to end it from the process
manager?

BTW, normally one Colossus application is one javaw.exe process. So if you
have several, I would guess they are artifacts from earlier started
Colossus runs. And they, for example, could in theory be the reason why no
clients come in.... they wait at the socket also, and if your clients try
to connect, they connect to those old server threads, not the freshly
started one. Although it's unlikely... just a theory.


Hmm....

Summary: After game completed, start new one: clients don't come in

Initial Comment:
When I clicked on the "Done" button on the main board after the game ended, it displayed a dialog with several options--Quit, Start a new game, etc.  I selected "Start a new game" and it popped up the usual new game dialog.  After I selected "New Game" from that dialog, it did something it's started doing ever since the recent public release--it acted like it was waiting for a bunch of network clients to connect.  The only way I've been able to stop it from doing that once it gets started is to exit, and then use the Windows process manager to kill all the running javaw.exe processes.

When you say "On the third or so new game",

How often did you click the web start icon totally?

How do you end the application - using any of the QUIT buttons/menu item,

corner.
(This "x" is the only way I can imagine how to get out of the game / get
it
away from screen which does NOT trigger the System.exit after 10
seconds!)

I cannot imagine a way how three Colossus instances stay alive if you use
QUIT.

Could you next time check, how many javaw processes are there
- before you click the web start icon
- after Game Setup dialog came up
- after Game has fully started, somewhere in turn 1 or 2
- before you click QUIT, open process window look how many there are
- about 10 secs after QUIT one javaw should go away.


Do you play only with "1 Human + a number of AIs"?
You do not use "Network clients", do you?

The Process Manager showed 3 javaw.exe processes.

Message:

I have committed now several changes which target to this,
the whole shutdown procedure etc. Mostly:

1) Once all clients did connect, server stops accepting and
   closes the server socket.

2) Whenever user selects "Quit", this triggers a demon thread
   which sleeps 10 seconds, and in case the JVM is then still 
   alive ( = did not terminate by itself as expected) it will
   do a System.exit(1) together with a relevant log message.

So in any case, following games should not be face the problem
any more that the new clients wrongly connect to old server
socket and the new started game/server waits hopelessly for them.

(not visible in public build nor public testing build yet).
