Unable to close sandbox game, and therefore unable to play bot games

#1 Post by Daawesomm » Sun Mar 12, 2023 6:05 am

So I made a sandbox game to test something out and for some reason, when I try to build a unit, the screen just goes white and I can't do anything as well as having an obscene amount of the same replica of the game open for some reason. Cus of this, I can't play any bot games?

Thanks for the report. The sandbox mode doesn't work with the point and click UI in builds phase yet, and I haven't added the sandbox delete button to it.

I've made a change so sandbox mode games will default to the dropdown UI, you can still use the point and click UI for diplomacy/retreats phase by clicking on the map in the board.

Nice! I know you will give me the most enjoyable gaming experience.
A few handy shortcuts when you want to how to screenshot on windows, or an app for you to capture and edit images.

I found a bug in a sandbox game where I have to destroy a unit, but it doesn't give me an option of what unit to destroy? There's no dropdown box or anything, either. I can't just ready up and pass it either. Anyone know why this is?

Also having this issue. Is sandbox mode bugged right now?

Sandbox mode is extremely bugged and unusable in the new UI. According to the dev, the old drop-down interface that sandbox defaults to is working.

It is a new feature that hasn't had all the kinks worked out, but it should just send you to the drop down based board until then

Drop down box still doesn't work with deleting units. Any ETA on a fix?

Can you try via https://staging.webdiplomacy.net/ ? I think I've fixed all the bugs etc I just want to give it some time on the staging site before deploying the fixes in case there are any issues that affect existing games.

Let me know if you have any issues.

Oh wait the drop-down isn't working either? Can you give me the game ID so I can have a look?

The point and click UI should work now, but I thought the drop down UI already was
