And how does the AI manage to play, if it doesn't have the money script?

[TruePraetorian]

The game was originally intended for all human players. And you don't have the scripts changed..that is the original script not the one a made.

[Subotan]

Oh right, bugger. I'll change right away.

[TruePraetorian]

Oh right, bugger. I'll change right away.

Also, about the AI, see my post in the Rules thread.

[davepyne]

Do you mean this?

I would say that you can fight them for now, but that may change in the future since humans have a vast unfair advantage (Intelligence ).

Use fair judgement is what I recommend.

and this?

Yes, that's exactly what it is used for: To bend stupid suicidal AI. You have to remember that the PBeM minimod tricks the game into thinking it is another faction..which means every other faction is AI. So, say you and I agree that I will trade all of Sicily for 40k and gaurunteed protection from Greece (I'm desperate). Have fun going to the AI with your diplomat and convincing them to try that.

That is why I am going to make a diplomacy thread which will state current known deals (secret ones are obviously secret). This will replace the one in-game.

Now, relize that this game is going to take a little dedication and trust on the other player's part that they don't cheat. If worst comes to worst and a player is cheating or doing something without your permission, then we can load the most recent save before his turn, kick him out, and continue play. We will also ALL have his name designated as a cheater in our signatures

But the cheating part can't be helped. Obviously someone could use toggle_fow and see where all of your units are...it is up to the players to make the game fair and enjoyable.

I'm not trying to be rude, but how does that answer the question of how the AI can compete without the money bonus. Or are we just going to ignore that and kick the AI's butt? (I don't really mind that really!)

[justmyname]

see the rules thread. we will give money bonus only for the AI factions.

[Skullheadhq]

Karthadast when are you going to upload the turn?

[We shall fwee...Wodewick]

I thought there were problems, and TP said I should hold-off playing the sele save.

[The Celtic Viking]

Yeah. What we're waiting for here is you to fix your install and then redo your turn, Skully, so Hax can take that new save with the right amount of cash, and no other perks that he might've got.

As I alreaady yold you, Barbaros (And to the Basileos in a PM). I uninstalled my EB 1.1+1.2. Deleted everything in that folder. Reinstalled RTW Gold+EB 1.1+EB 1.2+Lz3's modpack+FD+MAA's Citymod+RS Textures+TruePraetorians PBEM Pack+GenericScript. SO the installer is GONE. hope you read it this time. And I'll redo my turn if that's what you wish/

There may be a problem right there. No one installed MAAS citymod or FD. Force Diplomacy came in the minimod pack so it is unnecesary. Also we installed [B]the compatible version found on Lz3's page, not on MAA's page.[/B]

And the phalanx mod, but again on Lz3's page.

Repeat after me:

We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.
We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.
We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.
We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.
We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.

Did you get that? We are not talking about your installer, but your own, very personal installation. The one you did manually. The one you used to do your turn. It is not installed properly. That is the reason why we can't continue yet. For us to continue with you, you have to reinstall it first and this time correctly, and then redo your turn. You just redoing your turn now without installing it properly will not change a thing. Arguing about this is futile, because it is already proven that it is so. The only other possibility is you intentionally cheating to give the AS too much money. By possibility I mean that any other way is impossible, and by impossible, I mean that it can't be done. So by denying that you installed it incorrectly you are by necessity saying that you intentionally caused this problem by cheating, rather than making an honest mistake. Either way, the problem is traced down to you.

Do you follow me? We are not talking about the installer, but the installation. If that's not so you must have cheated. If you did not cheat, you must not have installed it correctly. We can continue like this, but if this isn't clear by now, I don't know what to do. I'll just say it one last time:

We are not talking about the installer, but the installation.

I'm going to be gone for the next week or so, as I'm going on a trip to America, so you can just skip my turn.
