but if everyone finishes their turn early, it'll autogenerate the next turn.. and it only forces a turn 24 hours after the Last turn. so really there's no way to nail down a deadline every day, since that deadline is subject to shift depending on how quickly everyone submitted their turns. best thing to do is check in within 24 hours of the Last time you personally submited your own turn.

is that correct?

The server is on est time but the 24 hours isnt always the same because of quickhost. If everyone does their turn lets say at 8pm est then the new 24 hours will be the following day at 8pm est. It does 24 hour host from the time of the Last host which will always change because of quickhosting when it happens.

I am having trouble finding the maps directory folder to put the map in. I am on a Mac Os X computer. Does anyone know where the folder is located for me. Searching for maps directory gave no results. Is that the name of the folder?

I found the answer.

Instructions for Mac OS X Users: Control-click on on your dominions application, select "Show Package Contents", and open up the resources folder. Then move the map data files from each individual downloaded map folder into the the resources/maps folder.

I just want to make sure that PashaDawg, Machaka is doing ok with connecting. He is the only one so far that hasnt done the first turn.

Hi Aku:

I have not done my turn, because I had to go work this morning. I am guessing that I will not be able to do my first turn until about 9:00 pm.

Sorry about the delay.

Aku · #68 July 26th, 2004, 09:12 PM

That is no problem. I was just checking if you were connecting ok thats all.

PashaDawg · #69 July 26th, 2004, 09:20 PM

I am happy to hear that we are underway, and I will make a point of getting my first turn done as early as possible (because then we will all get to play a SECOND turn tonight - yay!!) Hee hee.

I had no problem connecting and sending my god pretender to the server, and so, I expect that there should be no problem with connecting to actually play.

Turn one complete!
