Sync bug...... (continues....)
Well I'm avare of that Lord Bobby Ohms working on this problem....
But I want to share some of my experience.....
I was playing against RadDull the other day and here is what I notice:
First I try to start the game with 3 "mods" installed
(the one who shows the size of creatures, "paperdoll" look and the one who changes the ATB bar+ wait button.
We could'nt start the game..... I dis. all "Mods" and then started the game nicely..... We played a while and had to continue later....
I desided to try again with the same "Mods" installed.....
He loaded the game (he was the host). That worked ok..... we played for a day when I asked if he could check if Save button was "blue"... now the button had turn grey......
Okay....... then we reloaded the game from the last save (with these 3 mods disabled again....... and the game worked perfect from here and to the end.....
so maybe this is something to notice in the future too....
(personally I like these 3 mods..... but it can harm the mp game)
anyway somethimes it will........
(I guess there are many ppl like me who likes some of the mods who not affect the gameplay)

I do not see a direct conection between "synchro bug" and mods. I don't (and won't) have any mods but the bug still managed to f*** 2 long games.
The one and only thing you can do about this bug is hit "esc" button every turn - to chech if your game is still alright.
p.s. don't know yet if quicksave works then the bug is active.

We encountered this "grayed out savegame" bug yesterday, and since we have a proper save from the day before we messed around with it a bit in case we could learn something.
It occured when blue player attacked some master gremlins, and decided to do the fight manually instead of accepting the auto-combat results. We tried it a few times, and the bug occured every time.
As a curiosity, once the save button was grayed out, we could still see each others' heroes move - unlike the more serious desyncs we have seen. Autosave works even when the save button is grayed out, but the autosaves lack the preview image of the game you see when you load. You can load these autosaves, but the save game button is gray from the start.
Where did this theory of "gray save game button" <==> "desync" come from?
