Crap ... help...

Submitted by javaslinger on Mon, 2006-12-18 14:50. Space Empires V General

Ok, I surrendered by accident.. but no worries as I had saved the game prior to ending the turn.

However, despite that I am now sending a Demand surrender message, I apparently saved my original 'surrender' message.. which I can't figure out how to deactivate....

How do you 'unsend' a message?? Mind you this is before the 'end turn' has ever been selected... so there must be a way to do this?? right???

Thanks,

Javaslinger

Sorry about this but I would go back to a slightly earlier save I do hope you have got one

If you noticed he did mention having just saved the turn before....

All I can say is I have never ever done that in SEV, as for SEIV.... well thats why I double and tripple check before I ask anyone to surender. Although to be honest I have given up asking now as all alien races seem to have a deathwish.

I realize that but if he had a save before that I would go and load that, or give up play as the race I had just surrendered to

I am not sure

Submitted by evilginger on Mon, 2006-12-18 15:39.

you saved it after you sent the foolish offer of surender but before you hit the turn end which was when you realised. I dont know of a way to unsend a sent message other than going back to the save before Sorry

Well, go log on as the comp you surrendered to and play that one turn for them (turn them back to AI next turn) while denying the surrender message.

Hi there its best to save a backup of ALL Savegame files before running turn and then All savegame files after running turn? That way any move can be rerun with the correct message logs etc. in tact for the current turn as needed. Also very usfull for e-mail games when turn crashes?

Hope this helps

Remember as a host of a game the moment you end your turn it changes the files in the save game file? thats why you should place incoming move files in save game file, Then save it to "saved b4 (#) run" folder

Kwok, how about asking Aaron to add an OPTION to confirm sending a message. Wait, isn't that already in there?

Actually all Aaron would need to do is change the text to read "I Surrender" not just "surrender".
