Is pbspy down for everyone?

For me at least

[Jowy]

Game is still up and turn has rolled

[AutomatedTeller]

Until pbspy comes back, maybe we can post here when A) people with the first half the timer go and B) the turn rolls?

El Grillo found something interesting in the original code of Civ 4. Apparently the following is possible in Civ4:

Alice is at war with Bob and has a stack in Bob's territory.
Charlie has open borders with Bob and a unit sharing the tile Alice's stack is on.
Charlie declares war on Alice, and Alice's units end up teleported out of Bob's territory.

I deem this a bug and I have a fix at hand that would guarantee the following:

1. If a player declares war, then their units are always first looked at and teleported.
2. Only after the player will all other units be looked at and verified/teleported.


The question for you guys to decide now is if you want this bugfix and therefore an update to the mod or not?

I would say we go with the rule of don't be a dick and do this for the moment. If another fix is required then obviously add in. Other peoples thoughts?

[Jowy]

Fix sounds good. But I'm also willing to go with what Mjmd suggests.

[AutomatedTeller]

We should wait. No reason to change the way this mod works for this game.

that said, I'll defer to the contenders

Agreed

[Old Harry]

Can someone add a few hours to the timer for me? And can I volunteer to be an admin?
