abandoned positions - old reports

[Tieffdschie]

Hi,

I just took over a position and would like to see/download some old reports.
What I get is this:

"Select player for xxxxxx
You are not an active player in game xxxxxx. You will be allowed to view the game details when it is over."

Would be nice to know where my enemies and allies are, cause I now only have the current worlds in view on my map....

Sorry about that--fixed. Note that you can also view the past reports in the client.

But I am (again) on a business trip this week and our company server doesn´t like rsw....

Try going into the File | Configure dialog, select the Servers tab, and change the Comm method from "XML connect" to "XML web push". This will contact the RSW server over normal HTTP channels, so the company server shouldn't have a problem with it.

By the way - sharing reports via www would be a nice feature...

I agree, but unfortunately this is difficult to do because the web server doesn't actually keep all of the information that is available to the client (like your map arrangement and such).

Eww, I just realized that I must have clicked the "Edit" button instead of the "Reply" button, and I ended up editing your post in-line instead of adding a reply with your post quoted. My apologies for the complete moderator fail!

No prob.

I tried the new config, but it still doesn´t work. Good job of our firewall

Next friday starts my one-week holiday leave....well, seems like I have to update my offline-maps for there is no synchronisation possible, right ? (another nice-to-have feature )

Hmm, if even XML web push doesn't work, it must mean that all of your internet traffic must go through a proxy. Is that true? If so, and you know the proxy host and port, you can supply that also, in the "Advanced" tab. (If you don't know the proxy host and port, you can find it by checking the configure settings of your browser.) The bottom line is, if you can open a browser and view a web page from your desk at work, then you should be able to use the RSW Client too--it uses the same communications mechanisms as your browser uses, and there's no way that a corporate firewall can tell the difference.

Not sure what you mean. Are you referring to the layout of worlds on the RSW Client on your desk? Yes, you're right, there's no way to synchronize the actual placement of worlds on the map other than through the RSW Server. But you can export the connectivity of the maps with "Save XML" in the Export / Share menu, and then you can import that XML file into the client of your choosing. Then you'll have to move them around to declutter the map. You're right, it would be nice to be able to import the actual arrangement too.
