I've already started my first self-play game for the academy. I have the first 2 or 3 turns done and saved as a log file. What would be the best way to set that up so we can fight each other and I can get credit for the scenario?
Also, with an actual online opponent how does the whole logfile process work since each player is controlling one side? As opposed to solitaire when one player is controlling both sides and one logfile is being written by that player.
With my work schedule and trying to coordinate with goosebrown so we can play each other it might take a little longer to complete the scenario than I originally planned.
Log files work the same way. It records your moves and my moves and you can play them all back which is not a bad thing to do in a way. We could start a scenario and then log it then when done you could go and play it all back later
I hear you about scheduling. This week is a little rough schedule wise, but in theory we could do a Friday PM or something on a Saturday. I work from home so some flexibility most of the time. I also have children and they need me to drive them places sometimes and saturday is my do stuff day also. Let me see how this Friday is and then I can ping you to see if it fits your schedule.
I did have something planned for Friday but it didn't pan out so as of right now I'm good for Friday. Also, I chose Invasion 1944 as the game for the self-play track.
I've pretty much only done solo play on VASSAL for PG and the other game modules I have. So how does it work for playing against an actual opponent? Do we just connect on the VASSAL server or is there a different process for the academy?
