After playing a cpl online VASSAL matches, I ran into some issues I was hoping others could shed some light on.
First, I am using the latest VASSAL engine (3.1.19) and the new STCS 3.5 module.
Issue #1: The Range finder. At time the range finder seems to stop working for everyone. It gets into a state where you can no longer place and extend the range thread, and the only way we have seen to get around that is to save the game, quit out and restart.
Resyncing does not seem to help.
Issue #2: Movement tracking & trails. How do I make sure the movement of all players gets logged, and how to I make it so the movement trails of all players will be displayed?
I get a sense that both the Range finder and the Movement trails work, but do not work like I think they would (something seems to be unintuitive about the way they work and its messing me up)
