Variant Pitboss Signup

Thanks Oxy! That's a great suggestion. I'm working on getting that set up now.

OK! Seems to be working. I was able to get it working through Parallels and play my turn.
Hardest part was unpausing, since the macbook doesn't have a pause button. I had to chat "Unpause" for that.
It's rolled to the new turn now.

Still a little clunky but you can set a custom binding for any key like this:

For unpausing, you can also press F1 and use the button to the bottom right, which was modded in for just these cases

Thanks Miguelito. Good to know I'm not alone in that problem. You guys really thought of everything with this mod!

Using the chat directly is kind of funny because I didn't had this variant in mind during programming that feature
The chat is one of few things that will not be blockaded during a hanging open diplo window. So I'm using it on the F1-screen to send the 'unpause' command to all clients+server.

• Ideally 5 players, 60 turns simultaneous, then convert to sequential. Open to playing with 4 or 6 players.
  

We lurkers recommend swapping over to sequential as soon as is feasible, or at the very least any turn-splits follows the player-id order.

I'd be happy with a T50 switch (which is next turn). Unfortunately Luddite already ended the current turn

Reminder on the process: on the switchover turn, Luddite needs to play last and *not end turn*, but instead PM Ramk with a request to flip the switch. Ramk will end the turn after changing turns to sequential
On the subsequent turn, we need to play in order, without logging in outside our turn
After that, sequential turns will be in effect, and we're free to login whenever

A swap next turn is fine with me.

Sounds good to me
