A place for general chatter about games in progress, games completed, strategy advice, bug reports, or really anything at all that relates in some vague way to RSW.

General question regarding team games

Post by Arioch »

Is it possible in a team game to key in the orders for the other team member? For example during vacation times?

You would have to log in as your team member and assign the orders.

That makes no sense.... In a team game i can see everything my team member sees too, why should i log in as he?

It does sound like a useful feature to allow teammates to enter orders for an absent player, but at the moment there is no such option. Each player is responsible for entering his/her own orders. If the vacationing player has at least email access, the best you can do is email your suggested orders to the vacationer, and he/she can email them back to the server.

Okay, sounds like a useful thing for the future.

I am in vacation the whole month of May without email access, so I guess there will be some dropouts of me in the running games, I will withdraw from my current sign ups so gthat the other players don't have trouble with me

I'm in a game allied to Arioch. I could do his turns in May and would be happy to but how do we get my RSW client to be able to run my turn then in a few minutes run as him? I don't see any feature that lets me run it under different profiles? I could load RSW to my old desktop as him but that will limit my access to when I'm home.

David - any suggestions?

LOL no, but to Asia, India in this case. I am doing a round trip as a backpacker and I have been told by my Indian friends that I can't count on Internet there except for some sparse locations. I do not want to disappoint anyone so I told this in advance.

Just to make it clear: I won't drop and I will continue playing when I'm back home for sure :)
