Bug Description
We started a multi player game over the Internet. Map SK-Rush, 3 Humans vs 1 CPU.
One human left after 10 minutes, we both continued play. (As a alliance)
After my units killed the CPU there was for 30 secs, just a yellow screen. Like a freeze.
After ~1 minute the victory screen was shown. (Rotating camera, firework)

(No debug info available)

[lav_coyote25]

actually that yellow screen represents a very small rpl saying you won....and after the rpl completes - it goes to the rotating camera and fireworks. ;D

this will go away once somebody does the animations for it. ::) :-X ;D


you can always hit the esc key to progress quicker....

I fixed a similar bug in the tutorial... should be easy.

EDIT:
Hmm.... thought it was a script-fix, but apparently not so.

It appears that outro.rpl is hard coded into the gameOver script function - that might be the culprit. One could try to comment that part out, but I don't have anyone round to test this with:

It is gameOverMessage() that is called upon victory in a skirmish/multiplayer game and some functionality it relies on was modified at some point, I don't know why. Right now it pops up the research menu instead of ending sequence.

Right now it pops up the research menu instead of ending sequence.

Too funny... *g*

Perhaps that hardcoded ending sequence could be moved into a script?

[Troman]

That will probably not work, Pumpking seem to use some hack to make the ending sequence (fireworks) somethign special, but I will take a closer look at it.
