The changes really do look sharp.

It looks like a bit of the S is hiding behind the border!

Yeah, I don't think we should change the font because of a typo. The map went through the process and the font was already chosen.

Guys, my error, because the soiftware asked me for font substitution i changed the font unknowlingly and didn't check what it was from previous versions.
Now remedied in above version 36.

Thanks rds, but for some reason Jonathan is still coming up Johnathan with "Bob map inspect" from the xml in current games.

The graphics are fine.
I have checked the xml file as above and that is also correct.

I've reuploaded it, and this time I'm certain that the correct file is in the DB! If problems persist with BOB, perhaps a logout/login would fix it?

Nope! still the same as before.
I logged out and in of my computer; the game log still shows Johnathan, but Bob Map Inspect is showing that also.
I tested the version 36 xml in the XML Wizard and that is showing the correct Jonathan.
So i don't know if it is me or something else.

Both of the XMLs on the previous page (posted by myself and Cairns) say "Jonathan". But the database here says "Johnathan". Not sure what's up with that.

by **rdsrds2120** on Mon Jul 22, 2013 8:30 pm

The XML file in the database (I've manually opened the one in the database to triple check) says Jonathan. While playing, what does the name of the territory give in the drop-down menu with BOB off?

If it's correct, then the problem we have is with BOB.

I've called Gilligan for a game to see what is happening there.
Can't tell right now.

rds, the drop list displays correctly now as Jonathan Putnam (3)
however, the mouse-over function over same territory displays Johnathan - the old version.

In Game 13013824, when I mouse over that territory, the BOB Map Inspect shows Jonathan Putnam (2), so I suspect if you are still seeing the old spelling, it is a caching problem.

Thanks ender...that worked clearing the cache...i didn't know there was a cache in these games (apart from gfx).

Hi there. I have enjoyed this game a couple times already. I am now starting a quads game but whoever created the game mad it trench warfare. Is this possible? I don't see how to go to the next area unless the buggy stops don't count as a move. Can you give me any further information?

This question isn't map specific, it's about how trench warfare works. Like you suggested actually, any 'killer neutral' region (such as the buggy stops on this map) don't count as a move in trench - you can advance and then attack again.
