A set of bugs and suggestions I`ve come up with so far.

1)207 LIKES to Hang,Crash and Bug...

a)The most often crash is when I press "cancel" while receiving the turns.
b)Second in my list is hangup while changing from chat menu to turns menu...
c)Next come just irrational random crashes during the game(without any system)
d)Here is one FUNNY bug where CTRL bugged on one of my NR games...it just did not show grid other than buying one(the game hanged after I sent a turn anyway)
Now to in-game bugs:
a)Visual state of the units - it often does not change after I`ve cancelled an action....how do you like seemingly alive tank with...0 hit points...or pile of metallic junk with 5 HPs?:)
b)Turn markers(arrows) seem to disappear from time to time

Now to suggestions
a)Make a swords button (like in chat) to the left of each game,so I won`t have to browse the whole list of players just to send a message.
b)Make a search engine for players by nicknames on the site...really,the way it is now,one has NO chance of not being angry while trying to find a single player out of that list you have up...
c)Make a SMALL page for "incoming turns"...maybe even TXT one....just who and when sent them...it takes a whole lot of not needed traffic usage just to check if there are some turns in...

I`m playing on Athlon XP 1700+ 256Mb Ram and ATI Radeon 9100 (64 mb video ram)

Personally, I'm of the opinion that "Not IE" is 90% of what makes a browser good :wink:

Yes, well, I believe that "No ads + free + standards compliant" is the way to go ;)

Let's stop this offtopic and go back to the 209 patch. Anybody, are there any bugs in the patch?

artmax, there still seems to be a new issue with running the game in a window and having it running in the background when a new turn comes in. This wasn't a problem previously, but starting with beta patch 207 and now with 209, the game locks up in this scenario.

Not a huge deal really, but I like having it run in a window versus full screen, and it's nice having it there all the time so I can jump in and make a move when I have a free minute. I also had it hang once while running in Windowed mode when I hit Skip to jump through the replay of my opponent's turn. It just hung there and never got to my move. Because of the first problem, I haven't played in Window mode enough to determine how much of an issue the 2nd problem is.

I also noticed the aforementioned problem of units that were destroyed still appearing destroyed even when you change orders and attack something else. Just a bit confusing in big battles.

I am having the same problems as Deac here. Guess I'll try running fullscreen and see if that helps any.
