Unable to change fields?
« on: December 23, 2008, 09:29:15 AM »
I am trying to use the family computer for AH as my old one died.  When I call it up, everything seems to be working fine except that I am unable to change fields.  When I try it with the mouse, nothing happens.  When I tyr to use the .move command, I get a message saying that I am unable to move to that field.

What am I doing wrong?  Or, is there some setting that I possibly messed up?

Thanks for any ideas!

Clara wants to ask a question for fication. It was definitely a friendly field correct? The third possible alternative, but if dot move didn't work I doubt this would, is the .goto [gameID] command. If you know someone is at or took off from the specific field, the .goto gameID command is another way of getting there. Might be worth a .country X command to just to make sure your ON the side you think you are.

Yup - defenitely friendly fields.  After awhile, I got tired of, and logged off.  Later, when I logged back on, things were working normally again.  Don't know what happened, but it seems to be working for now.  Fuzeman - thanks for the ideas.

I had this problem the other morning, like yourself i thought i had done something wrong. After checking all my settings i was still baffled. What i did was open the game in my programs instead of desk-top and it work fine. So I then came out of the game and tried opening the game on my desk-top... that worked as well and it`s been ok ever since. Give it a try.

Good luck

This seems like it doesn't happen often but, if it does happen again check the roster and see if your name is on it.
I logged in one time and i was definitely online but my name was NOT on the roster.
