Starting a game

#1 Post by NideScarani » Fri Jul 07, 2023 1:25 am

Hello,

It’s been a while since I was logged in. But I set up a private game and set the start time for two weeks and I thought that once all seven are signed up for the game, the game would start. But it appears that the game will start two weeks from the creation of the game. Is that new? Am I mis-remembering that? Thanks

To be honest, I don't remember myself. I know that vDip has a setting for choosing whether games start as soon as enough players join, though.

The game should start as soon as everybody joins, or to be exact "at the next processing cycle", but lately this doesn't seem to work some times.
If you post a link to the game here, or ask help via the mod forum, we will force it to start

Thanks! This is the game. We are all ready to kick it off and I am being YELLED at by my rude friends that want to know what country they are going to lose with.

If you or a mod could kick it off, that would be much appreciated.
