Unfortunately the new map UI has a lot of the classic map caked into it; it'll take a fair bit of effort to make a version that can be extended with variants, and it's fairly low down on the todo list. :( I think variants are generally for more advanced players, and more advanced players are general...

The bot games stuck is taken care of, found the issue there, but the wait orders issue I can't reproduce, it seems to be working, e.g. spleenman I went to your game and loaded it and there were all the normal options as expected. I tried doing a javascript version change to update the cache, can you...

[As discussed sorry to see you go Zultar, hope you drop by and check on things every so often and you're always welcome. - topic split] I am hoping to loosen the rules on the forum a bit; the women I asked didn't find the post sexist, and no-one found the other tongue-in-cheek comment objectionable,...

Apologies, a bit of a snag with an API change that the bots didn't like, orders are going through now.

It feels a lot safer agreeing with that sentiment when it's being said by a woman (or someone in the XYZ group on XYZ day more generally), but I know what you mean..
(Don't cancel me)

Interested what you mean about it being intentionally uncomfortable JECE, don't quite follow

I think that it is a good idea to have a sandbox. I found this sandbox very helpful when analyzing complicated board states: http://gamesbyemail.com/Games/Politics/Judge In case it helps, a decade ago webDip user SunZi released "Little Dipper", a useful Android app Diplomacy sandbox based on webDip...

Hahah thanks pyxxy. We're actually doing alright at the moment; there was a bit of a crisis point but these days the backlog gets cleaned fairly regularly. There are still some gaps in dealing with cheaters, but it's more of a system issue than a mod issue. I'd like to bring more mods in to have mor...

I always feel a bit uncomfortable when I think women should be respected for the remaining 364 days of the year far more than they actually are, not just today. That said, I'm happy to join Jamie and give my Best Wishes to All Women here and everywhere Uh, the point of International Women's Day is ...

After one whole day of respecting women I'm just drained gimix.. I think one day/year is enough. It's a slippery slope with these things..

We do have the search feature but I think it's a valid point that joinable games aren't as prominent / easy to get through as I'd like. I'd also say the active games should be more prominent

Which link are you trying to use? Apologies there are always a couple of kinks with these sorts of changes

Ah right .. I guess that's true it does ask once per device. Bear in mind it's going to be about sending warnings that you need to submit orders, game updates etc, all opt in and easy to turn off. Either way it should only ask you once per device. If it is a continual issue I might try and make it h...

Righto, making good progress on this, it's working well, last thing to do is get builds working properly in the point and click UI and it should be ready: Will probably add another option under the games menu for people to create new sandboxes.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll try and add that in today

Hmm good point I didn't see how it looked on mobile. Any other thoughts on using the site by mobile? Do you use the point and click UI or dropdowns, as I imagine dropdowns were pretty painful on mobile

Yep the old map isn't going anywhere, but for new users I think it's a slam dunk better, easier to learn, more swish, mobile friendly, so I think it makes a better default. There'll be some teething issues which we'll sort out

Thanks for letting me know, I do think the experience for finding and joining games needs to be improved, let's see what we can do

Righto no big deal, was just curious how you implemented it, (but I also don't want you to be caught off guard that the AGPL is a share-alike license) Lots of good improvements. :o hope it helps the hobby in Ukraine, I think a Russian language site dedicated to conquering europe is a good place to ...

Very nice! Is there a github repo?
