First loading of game after completion gives wrong info

25 May 2017, 03:34

So I have completed a couple games now, and I have noticed a pattern. The First and only the first time that I load that game after the day change I get the wrong popup message. One game I got first place, and the correct popup message is "Congratulations you have reached first place," BUT on that first loading it said "Defeat: Chancellor Franz von Papen has won this round" I had eliminated the good chancellor quite some time ago, and he had no provinces or points, so that was an odd choice.

In another game I got second place, yet again that first loading after the game completed the popup read "defeat, Chancellor XYZ won this round", and in that case Chancellor XYZ had a couple of provinces left.

Now in both cases I received the gold that I was due for winning, and upon closing that window and reopening I would get the correct message. So this isn't really a serious bug. I am not really complaining, It is more of a puzzle. I guess I am just wondering if this has happened to anybody else?

Die Software is taunting you. It is German; it does that.

Yes, I know what you mean, had the same 2 weeks ago.

The error is probably interrelated with the placement on the left side in the Newspaper, which is now displayed reversed...

Forum attachment Didn't make a photo of the wrong popup, I was too surprised, but in a few days I'll finish another map and make a snapshot if it happens again ...

That explains so much.

It is odd because I can load the game 10 times after that and get the correct information, so it seems to only happen on the first loading.
