Missed a turn despite having no orders possible.

#1 Post by DrFidelis » Tue Mar 19, 2024 12:28 pm

It's my only missed turn, though it didn't seem to have affected my RR, perhaps because I came back in time. I didn't have any orders available to do, I'm not sure why it didn't just declare me dead there.

What do you mean "no orders possible"?

Do you mean that all your units had been eliminated, so you had no orders to enter?

Or, something else?

Was it a retreat phase where your unit couldn't retreat into a bordering country? I believe you still have to select disband.

Forced moves should be automated to avoid having these discussions in the future. :-)

All units eliminated, every home center occupied.

Then this appears to be a bug. You should not get an NMR strike for a turn in which it was literally impossible for you to input an order.

Yeah well it gave me a nastygram and wrote something down in my missed turns list. At least I still have a 100% RR.

This is (I think) a known bug. You will get an NMR warning email if and only if you have no units and a turn that you are technically alive for is about to end. You do not get these emails when you are actually in danger of an NMR. If you have no units, you will not get hit with a reliability rating decrease for not entering orders.

What sucks is that the unexcused bug infraction from that game made me actually lose RR from missing a turn that ticked over while i was asleep.

You just said your RR was still 100% ??

Good! But I see your problems of 'too short of legs', 'unable to fly', and 'high squacky voice' remain...

The high squacky voice doesn’t matter, because I am typing. The legs don’t matter, because I am a ninja, so you won’t see me coming. Unable to fly really hurts though.
