Silos Launching By Themselves

Postby Professor Falken » Sat Oct 28, 2006 7:41 pm

Hey, anybody any ideas why silos have started launching by themselves and on each others territory?
Was in a few games today where none of us were launching on each other and silos were going crazy. I even reinstalled the game but my game keeps going out of sync and doing crazy stuff. It was not just me either, even the other players.

Any clues?????

or you could use a better browser :roll:

I'm quite tempted to host a game with teamswicthing turned on now, to see if anyone notices.

AFAIK, rescaling the image doesn't change the size of the image and even though Falken's current avatar isn't particularly huge his previous avatar was 300K despite having been correctly scaled down in FF. Also, something tells me Falken is leeching that image which isn't a very nice thing to be doing.

It does appear that he is leeching that image.

Falken, that ain't nice. Host it yourself.

Funny how the Grey Bar gets removed but this doesn't. Perhaps calling it mediocre was too generous.
