LAN Game Mistakenly declares players as dead.

from Sins Forums

The last 2 LAN games I have played over Hamachi with my friends has resulted in one or both of us being declared "Defeated" randomly.

We were playing with the following victory conditions:

Flagship

Allied Victory

Capture the Plannet

 

Slightly un-related, a little while later the game crashed and provided this dump file:

That happened to me as well, only I was not using Hamachi. This was a direct host. My machine was hosting, as it always does. then my friend asked how I lost. I still had my flagship, I still had my home planet. the only other setting was allied victory.

Were you using a custom map? If not properly set up they can cause auto defeats. Also try verifying the cache integrity.

You are desyncing.  Very common problem that the devs say is rare.  See the sticky above about submitting desyncing info.  The moment you desync, your flagship explodes.

No Diplomatic Victory I guess? Then it could be buggy after all. Never happened to me =)) It seems I'm the lucky bastard that met none of the buggies listed in these forums  :grin:

This bug occurs 100% of every game online/LAN that I play that used large Stock maps.
