Default Re: Sovarinthy - an EA game for somewhat busy people (in progress)

I did it.

My intention is to open two copies of Dominions in two windows. Then I will attempt the following:
Load my old moves for turn 61 in one of them (from the old, bad .2h file).
Delete the old, bad .2h file.
Open turn 61 in the second window and make my moves there, while looking at the first window for reference.
End the turn in the second window, creating a new, clean .2h file.
Send the new .2h file to LlamaServer.
Close the first window, saving nothing from it.

Hm actually here is a safer plan:
Set up my .trn and .2h files so that I can immediately open my old moves for turn 61.
Leave Dominions open, with those moves showing.
Copy the whole program directory.
Delete the .2h file in the copy.
Open Dominions in a new window, from the copied directory.
Make my moves in the new window.

I'm just speculating here. But anyway it seems like we can do this without TOO much trouble if we are clever.
