I have been playing invade earth online with my friends and we have all been enjoying it very much. Recently my friends discovered the 'Agent' tab, which allows them to do the equivalent of a boardflip.

Is there any way to disable the 'assume player' and 'replace with AI' options for multiplayer?

A friend and I were going to play Invade Earth over the internet, but I cannot figure out why it won't connect.

My girlfriend and I have connected onto the same lobby, but when we try to start a game, neither of us succeed. We both get the same result, we select ourselves as players and try to start game but neither screen shows the game.

*Update*
My girlfriend hosted the game and selected block new game, preventing us from starting a new game.

Hello friends.

I'm having trouble connecting to Invade Earth. I was able to do it earlier today with my friends, but now we cannot. We try clicking on the link to launch the Invade Earth server and then tell everyone the IP that is given, but everytime people try to connect and use the IP, it says that the connection failed. What are we doing wrong? Thanks.

I'm really bad at using the map editor. What I wanted to try doing was to simply combine Invade Earth with Risk: Mars - with space connections between the Moon and Phobos/Deimos.

Problem is that this is nearly impossible without the original map images - I don't know how much time/effort it would take to combine them, but I think it would be pretty fun - at the least, can you make the background image pictures available? It will make map editor work a lot easier.

I can never even figure out how to get the map editor to work properly though.

I played my first game of Invade Earth tonight and found it very good. I saved a couple of times in case I made a placement mistake, which I did.

Of course I saved at the beginning of my turn.

When I reloaded the game, it fell back from year 4 to 3 and in the middle of another player's turn. My unit counts on the territories were not accurate, and one territory had 2 naval commanders and 2 nuclear commanders (clearly a bug).

My earlier save worked, but that was back in year 1. Having lost all of year 3's progress, I quit the game.

Hi, im new to this game and i noticed that almost nobody plays it anymore(newest post i could find was bout 15 weeks ago), anyway, if anybody sees this and wants to help xD, i checked all the network posts but my problems seems to be a little different, i forwarded the ports needed and my friend tried to connect to my game using my IP, a sound played (like a house knock door alarm)and in the conection status the 0 changed to 1(as if it detected someone), but in the invade earth client nothing appeared, he wasnt in the lobby and we couldnt chat, whenever he exits a door locking sound played lik

Mine worked yesterday, but today I'm getting the "unable to launch the application" box.
