RANTING

[Kumlekar]

Ok, I'm really beginning to hate idiots.  Two guys were playing on the large lattice map, and added 6 AI.  One surrended and we had to wait 20 minutes for him to finish his game with the AI because he didn't know how to hit end turn.  Once the game was finished, me and 5 other people started the next one, but right before we hit start game someone changed the settings to 5 seconds per turn.  Then people in the game were too stupid to figure out how to surrender and restart, so I am currently having to sit through this bs on the medium milky way map, which will take forever.  other players at complaining but won't surrender.

We desperatly need forced settings on dedicated servers, and a maximum of one AI per game.  The other server is down right now because an AI is playing a game with noone else there.  I can't join any servers other than the two dedicated ones and the one minus sets up.  Also, noone can join games I create.

I'll see what I can do code-wise to prevent this kind of stupidity happening. In the meantime, keep letting me know when things get borked; I've just restarted the server with the rogue AI. Someone managed to set him on the lowest difficulty setting, despite the server normally setting AI to the highest difficulty setting.
