1. If a disconnect occurs during your turn, calmly complete your turn as usual and, at the end of your turn, save the game, which you then load. 2. If a disconnect occurs during your opponent's turn, you must not make a move or save the game! Exit the game, your opponent completes their turn, and you load their save. 3. If, during a disconnect on your opponent's turn, their computer freezes or the game closes, again, you must not make a move or save the game, as the computer will complete their turn in such a case. Load your last save (made before the crash) and allow your opponent to replay that turn. Regarding the third point, which relates to the situation described above. Guys, don't immediately become paranoid and think that you are being cheated. An old computer can easily freeze, and the game can sometimes crash as well. Trust each other, at least initially. And then you'll see if it's worth trusting this person. Lies usually come to light over time. I myself used to play with a bad internet connection and a computer that kept shutting down due to overheating... It's unpleasant, to be honest. I sometimes had to forfeit games due to frequent crashes and could only play normally with friends. bijho, I don't see anything criminal in Andrei's actions. It is quite possible that his computer rebooted (or he had to reboot it because it froze). The bot played for him and attacked you. You should have exited the game and loaded your last save (before his crash). Of course, you can choose not to believe it and get upset, saying that you have too many crashes, and at the most opportune moment, and so on, but I prefer to trust people in such situations. In the worst case, if you develop a prejudice against this player, no one forces you to play with him in the future. I'm sure there are honest people with a stable internet connection and a good computer on the forum. Andrei, judging by the logs, seems like a perfectly reasonable person: he apologized several times for his crashes, offered to give you the victory because of them, and did not behave rudely. I think you should think about it again and not jump to conclusions.
