RSW version 1.0.6.2
Posted: Sun Nov 27, 2011 10:19 pm
This update includes a few bugfixes that have been reported recently:
* I've noticed that recently some players have joined RSW who prefer to use the web/email interface instead of the client, and they will share their turn reports by pasting the text report into an in-game message. Previously, players had to import these reports by saving them out to disk and using the "Import" option; now, the client should be able to recognize these kinds of reports, and allow you to import them directly from the message panel, the same as a normally-exported turn report.
* Tieffdschie in particular has been asking for this fix to the Skip Tracer. Note that although the Skip Tracer will now begin the game with a free report on his adjacent worlds, he won't get any points for this free probe (you don't get points until turn 2).
* This is the bug that plagued proxy8o. Should be possible to start a game like this now.

To expand on these three points:Version 1.0.6.2:
* Added ability to preview and import a pasted-text report
directly from the message window. Convenient when receiving game
reports from other players who do not use the RSW client.
* Fixed Skip Tracer's startup position--he will now get an
automatic probe of his neighbor worlds on turn 1.
* Fixed server bug when the game parameters demand more fleets on
homeworlds than the total number of fleets available in the
galaxy.
