I'm definitely up for a Vault test league.
Had some problems with the team creator (the bbteamcreator ini is the only one I need aprt from the teams ini isn't it? I copied over the exe for that rather than digging it out again. I wanted a new install of the PBeM tool.)

Hi,
because of my recent move from Italy to India, I've started back playing online (both fumbbl and pbembb) so I was happy founding the new release.
Just to get back familiar with the tool I made a test match: beside founding the same bug as above (not resetting stunned after TD or end half), I've found something curious in the injury handling:
Necro, 3 injuries, 2 dead un SI!!!!!!
Amazons, 6 injuries, 6 deads!!!!! :o

Just a coincidence or some dices rolling bad?

Depends ... if you are right clicking on the player to roll for AV/INJ that has a bug in it AND you are never supposed to do that anyway.

AV/INJ rolls are supposed to only be handled by the speed button in the tool bar not by right clicking on players (unless your own player has fallen down from a Both Down block)

Galak,

I have been getting some strange results when an injury is rolled. The log will state that a player is BH without any AV or INJ roll being made. The tool then changes spps and team casualties and moves player to injury box as BH. It then rolls the AV / INJ roll and usually results in a player death . I can send u a game file if that helps.

Cheers

miguel: Did you use the toolbar button or the right-click menu for rolling the casualty?

I used the tool bar button for the rolls, I only right click if my player is knocked down.

Well, tou did it correctly then. I think mailing galak the gamefile would be a wise choice.

I seem to be missing the LRB 4.0 rules from my ini file. The pbleague.ini doesn't contain the LRB 4.0 rules.

Have I missed it somewhere?

I am playing Norse in the tool at the moment. And after my turn when I click the opponent's turn marker. Sometimes sets one of my standing player to prone. Happened twice now. And is similar to the problem dendron reported.

Yeah i get the same problem. I recieve a game file, click on my turn marker to begin, and on 2 occasions my opponent suddenly had prone players.

Now, whilst this was nice, because it was one of the players in his cage, it's not really cricket, is it? :wink:

The text of INJURY TIME is wrong. It basically says to move the turn markers ahead under any scenario. Just a quick FYI.

It does appear to actually move the counters the right way though, but the log description is wrong.

I have an updated fixed version of the program that fixes the 3 major bugs reported so far.

As soon as I can get the links for pbembb.com fixed ... it will be available for download.
