FreeOrion

Looks like I can't connect to the server. I get stuck at the lobby screen (can see the chat, but galaxy won't load after several minutes waiting). I'm using latest weekly test build, Windows. Last night I connected with previous version, after server had been updated. I was able to connect and play...

Uploaded version 2020-06-09.613c260 to ppa:o01eg/freeorion.

The server was updated to 2020-06-09.613c260 pre-release build.

Then you are welcome to join the effort at MXE. Multiple people so far have told me that Python is hard to cross compile and that being the reason why MXE lacks Python support. The only Python-for-MXE project I had found, has heavily patched python 3.3 and even that is broken. It took me some time ...

I cross-compiled it for Android and even cross-compiled boost with python support.

I am interested in creating the c++ building types/species... via python. So it seems that is currently not possible. Does any of you pythonistas have experience with creating c data structures from python? Or would i need to provide an api like we have and expose that? Even if there was a way to c...

A bump here as oleg mentioned and adrian is working on something related. Given I have the content specified in python and I have the ability to understand what has to be done (by some binding or analysing the python file using python-ast) (how) can I create all game structures in the game via pyth...

The thing I asked geoff about was if macros get expanded recursively. Does not give access to game rule values or multipliers though. I did a web survey to find a language which supports what we need to bring FOCS, stringtables, backend and AI together. I found a lot of configuration languages like...

The server was greatly updated: Fixed freeze caused by broken Oberlus'es connections. Fixed crash caused by L29Ah. Save happened after orders issued. Queued building and some other info hide from non-allied empires. New turn notification presence in chat. Last 2 players get notification about making...

It's a game rules changes except stringtables. I suppose edited values should be calculated instead of written directly.

o01eg, I have the impression that when server is restarted the readiness status is reset (keeping the orders of players that already played their turn but not the ready status). I suggest to either save (and restore on reset) readiness status or resend the "new turn" notifications to all ...

some known good version that has all known bugs fixed. That is what called released version and updating server is a part of ensuring "all known bugs fixed". Wrong, updating server blindly to master also introduces new bugs. What you do is cherry-pick bugfixes. Then the next game will suf...

Might that be the cause for the server not responding right now? (I was welcome with a blank screen)

I've restarted the server.
