[Freeciv-Dev] [bug #14168] unable to create a new game
Follow-up Comment #2, bug #14168 (project freeciv): I tried this with 5 players with a map of 2000 tiles (map size = 2). I think it should be possible to create 5 start positions on a map with 2000 tiles. Sometimes I can create a game with 30 players with the same settings in a map of 1000 tiles. It seems, the count of players does not effect the chance of successfully creating the game. In older versions (i.e. 2.1.5) I was allways able to create games with 30 players in maps of 1000 tiles. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?14168 ___ Nachricht geschickt von/durch Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #14168 (project freeciv): Could you try this starting a separate server? I think the server sends an error message but the client does not display it and this message would help to identify the problem ... I can also most of the time start a game with size 1 and 30 ai players. But from time to time I get the error message listed below. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?14168 ___ Nachricht geschickt von/durch Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #14168 (project freeciv): I tried this with 5 players with a map of 2000 tiles (map size = 2). I think it should be possible to create 5 start positions on a map with 2000 tiles. Sometimes I can create a game with 30 players with the same settings in a map of 1000 tiles. It seems, the count of players does not effect the chance of successfully creating the game. Sure player count affects probability to find suitable spot for all. But many other things affect that too. The fact that map generator crashes quite often with certain kind of parameters is a known bug and severe one. We should do something to it before 2.2 release at least. In older versions (i.e. 2.1.5) I was allways able to create games with 30 players in maps of 1000 tiles. There were other bugs in map generation that have been fixed since 2.1.5. Unfortunately, fixing those bugs made this one more likely to happen. Mainly these changes are about making separate islands really separate. Previously map generator was combining islands that should be separate and thus made it easier to find island big enough for all players. ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?14168 ___ Message sent via/by Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #14168 (project freeciv): Your option correspond to the following server settings: -- Optionvalue (min,max) description -- size + 2 (1,29) Map size (in thousands of tiles) topology + 7 (0,15) Map topology index tinyisles + 1 (0,1) Presence of 1x1 islands temperature + 25(0,100)Average temperature of the planet landmass + 15(15,85)Percentage of the map that is land specials + 1000 (0,1000) Amount of special resource squares huts + 500 (0,500)Amount of huts (minor tribe villages) -- If you start the server and the client separately you can set the options using 'set name value'. If I try this the error is: 1: The server appears to have gotten into an infinite loop in the allocation of starting positions. Maybe the number of players is too high for this map. So the bug is more that the error is not displayed in the client ... ___ Reply to this item at: http://gna.org/bugs/?14168 ___ Nachricht geschickt von/durch Gna! http://gna.org/ ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev
