If a player doesn't save the game, any info from GMV files added to the history will not be retained in the GAM file. I agree that an autosave would be nice to have as an option.
_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Emrich Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2009 8:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [CBML] Re: Saving after accepting playback Reading Chris Fawcett's tutorial, point #26 states to save after having accepted point #25 "accepted move playback". It's my understanding that this is how both players keep their games in sync...therefore, it seems it would be better if the CB action that "accepts the move playback" also subsequently did a save of the game before allowing the player to begin his moves. Perhaps it is not really necessary and the games will be in sync even though the subsequent player starts moving before a new demarcation of the game is established by a new save prior to the new moves.
