Unable to Accept own challenges

Post by Eagletanker »

Hey, when ever I try to start a hot seat game on my computer, the accept challenge button becomes grey and doesn’t work.

For BA1 you need to add a line to the USER.TXT file in Documents/My Games/BBCBA - add the line

AllowMPHotseat 1

And then save the file and start the game.

Cheers

I used this technique to accept my own challenge, and now it won't accept submitting my first turn

What error message does it give? What version (Slitherine/Steam/GOG/etc) are you using?

Cheers

Slitherine - I guess, it's for windows, not steam
ver 2.6.0

"Failed to send the game to the server. Please try again."
when submitting after ending the first turn.
