Login code bug?

The last 3 turns the login code didn't change, it's 432 each turn.

I thought the code was randem each time, so the change of it being the same 3 turns in a row is very small.

So I'm not sure if it's the code is stuck or anything, I just thought I post it anyway.

this could also be linked to my ppt time bug just below this...

I'm now on -100minutes of PPT...

naq & up are still coming on the turn just some other functions aren't working... e.g. remove ppt... change login codes?

There is now a different login code, so it seems to be working fine again.

The timing of this seems to run exactly inline with when admin runs his backups on the server, it must screw with the turn counter.

I think its the backup that screws with the cronfile. When backup run the ranks do not change as well and if your ppt was suposed to end at that time, it can run up to 60 mins more.

my ppt extended for 2 hours (4 turns)

should have lost it at 01.35 game time and it went at 03.35

actaully if the code is truely random then its just a likely to be the same 3 times in a row as it is to be different.

Its like lottery numbers, they are just as likely to come out 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 as they are any other sequence of number...
