You can get help here if Freeciv doesn't start on your computer, or if you keep getting fatal errors while playing etc.

Unable to login to account

Post by cosyn »

EDIT: I managed to log back into my account by closing the entire window. However, I have encountered a new problem. After I joined, red text appeared saying 'cosyn has been removed from the game.' It also said 'AI has been removed from the game' for each computer player that was originally in my game. I clicked on Start Game, and I successfully joined my game with all my progress saved. However, all of the computer players were replaced with the same characters on harder difficulty. I know I can fix this in the settings, but will it happen all the time? Also, when I try to save the game again under the same name, I am told that I have to use another name. How can I save games without having to make a new title each time?

I know I'm asking a lot, but it would be very helpful if I got some advice. Thanks!

Hello, everyone

I started a game that I saved before quitting. Today, I joined a multiplayer match to observe for a bit, and the game automatically signed me in as an observer. Later, when I tried to open my saved game, the saved game had the correct title, it being 'World (cosyn),' but I was still logged in as an observer. I got an error message saying 'Cannot find save game with the name Observer9892.' I closed the browser and reopened it, but I still am logged in as the observer. How can I login as cosyn to play my saved game?

Thanks,

cosyn

this problem occurs on play.freeciv.org, right? Are you able to reproduce this problem now?

Yes, all the AI are replaced by the same leaders, but with the difficulties changed. Also, I'm not aware of how to save the game without making another name. I tried /save, but that didn't work.

I'd just like to remind others that I am still having this problem. If I could at least be provided with an explanation for my problems, and how to save the game without renaming it every time, that would be greatly appreciated.

hi again cosyn, I'll try to develop a fix to this, which will then be included in the next release.

I have released a new version of the Freeciv HTML5 client where this has been fixed. It would be great if you could test it again now.
