Cheater flag in 1.3 games (betas 1, 2, and 2a)

I believe that the cheater flags are being caused by invalid race config files. I am adding a message dialog to warn you if you are about to start a game with an invalid race config for the next beta update. In the meantime, if you have gotten a cheater flag, use the clear button on the Customize Race screen to reset to the default config and remake the file from there.

CariElf,

will this help for the game which is about to finish?
I am winning a game on Suicidal level and would be truly disappointed to get a cheater flag with it.

thanks.

I don't think so. But as long as your raceconfig file is "legal" (no manual editing or exploitive pick distribution as a custom race), there shouldn't be a "problem" anyway.

However, I've got two games with a cheater flag already.
Okay, let's wait the next beta.

CariElf,

i just realized that when I use CTRL+N in a metaverse game 1.3.beta, no new start game dialog appears.
I remember you corrected some code so that a new metaverse game would start after CTRL+N. And after your corrections it always started from the very beginning, including all universe/race/abilities screens. I believe I also remember that using CTRL+N in a metaverse game created a cheater flag before you recoded that part.
Is it possible that your previous corrections got lost in 1.3 betas??
