PbP Speed Custom Setting Allows Delay Millisec. < 0

Porb · 06-30-2006, 09:46 PM

If played out, the game will lock up when the PbP delay is set to a negative number. Well, it doesn't exactly lock up (mouseovers are still active), but the next pitch will never happen.

Yeah, I know this is pretty minor, and very avoidable, but I'm reporting this because the game shouldn't allow values in fields that cause it to lock up or crash.

Could it be because you are technically asking the computer to do one thing BEFORE doing the previous function?

Right, that's what I think, basically. If the computer is only looking for numbers =>0, it will never find numbers =<-1.

I am merely suggesting that that field not accept values <0, or treat negative values as 0.

Because if I was boneheaded enough to try entering -500 for delay, then someone else will too.

You never know. You may be the only bonehead.

Seriously, though, I have tried to enter values <0 (such as .5) but with no success. Never thought to go negative, however.
