I've test the Challenge with the Safari Browser - and it works.

The Fatal Error is fixed !

Thank you...I have reinstalled, my initial tests show it works, I have asked my members to test it fully and will report back.

No, only 2 files to upgrade

My members are suggesting it would be better to have the high score table only store one score per user....their best score....as at the moment one person playing it regularly can fill the entire score tabel.

Would that be possible, perhaps as an admincp option?

[Mark.B]

Hmmm...there is still an issue with challenges...

One player cannot complete the game....one of the rows within the game, when you click it after the dice have rolled, comes up with a blank dice even though it has a score value. At the end of the game it thinks you have not finished and you cannot submit the score, you can only "Cancel", which gives you a score of zero in the challenge.

Also some players are reporting that they cannot play a "single" game again once their challenge game has been played, they just keep getting thrown back to the challenge game, even if it's been played.

1.) only one ? I have no problems to play a single game
2.) will check it out

[Coroner]

Ok, i've done the following things:

1.) I start a challenge (searched only for 1 user)
2.) add him to the challenge
3.) start the challenge
4.) play my challenge game (I also places dices in the line 1-6 with NO points)
5.) submit my score
6.) I start a single game - works - and submit my score

--- now I'm a test user challenge by myself *g

1.) accept the challenge
2.) start the challenge
3.) play my challenge game (I also places dices in the line 1-6 with NO points)
4.) submit my score
5.) start a single game - works - and submit my score

what have you done ?

Hmm I have just done another test challenge and it worked....

I am puzzled as I can no longer replicate it.

I am waiting for more feedback from members and will report back.

Could you look into the high score table though if you get chance? An option to only record highest score by a user would be nice.

[Coroner]

Yes I can, but ... need time.

No problem, there is no rush at all. It it just a suggestion for the future.

I have found I needed to empty the two challenges tables in the database as I think we had some incomplete ones messing things up. I think it's working ok now, but I shall report back if anything shows up.

[Mark.B]

Ok my only observation is that there is a score displayed while playing your challenge that seems to bear little relation to anything....it looks like it is the other person's previous challenge.
