There is currently a bug in version 0.4.1 that requires a password for all rooms. So make sure to put your room's password in the thread when you ask for a game.

Bump for support. So far it sees easier than table top simulation and vassal

I can never get the thing to work. At random it will just start scrolling automatically across the board.

Is your mouse in the corner? That is what causes it to scroll on me.

Nope. Sometimes it starts the second I open the program, and can't even get the menus to work.

1) In you have connected gamepads/joysticks or another input devices - try to disconnect them.

2) Try to change quality settings to the lowest.

i'll be around for the next hour so hit me up if you want to play! I'm so excited for this.

edit:actually I have to leave sorry.

FJust made a room, password is password

Looking for opponents in next 1h. Contact me if you want to play...

Hey, we should really put this in Organized Play or something... or main forum. Off topic is the wrong place.

I'm trying to look for a game now. ... but probably will stop.

Can you recreate this thread in Organized Play?

Definitely interested in trying this. I don't get enough X-wing on a regular basis.

Is someone for a match?

Just made a room, password is pass

How do I send feedback concerning Fly Casual? Like bugs, etc?

Here's what I have so far:

Bugs:

1. Intimidate + Outmaneuver on Arvil Crynnd only reduces the target's defense dice by 1. I rammed an X-Wing's back-right corner, then attacked, and the X-Wing still got one defense die against the attack.

2. Cluster Missiles don't allow you to attack a second target. They try and use the primary weapon for the second attack and say it fails.

3. When Jek Porkins runs across an asteroid and gets stress, it only rolls once for damage dealt from him removing the stress, and not for the damage from the asteroid itself. It also then allows him to perform an action even though crossing the asteroid should prevent it.

Improvements:

1. If you roll enough evades to prevent damage from an attack, it would be nice if it didn't ask you to use up the rest of your resources against that attack.

2. A scroll bar for the saved squadrons would be very helpful.

3. It would be better if the messages for hits, blocking, etc. scrolled down from the top instead of up from the bottom. They cover up the OK button until they are done with their animations.

4. Any time there are no valid targets for an ability, it would be nice if it didn't ask you to choose a target for the ability. Swarm tactics is an example where it asks for targets even though none are available. This would also speed up combat, as the ships that are outside of range 3 of any enemies would not be asked if they want to attack.

5. When a ship is outside of the attacker's weapon arcs, it should not be shown as a possible target. If no enemies are in the attacker's firing arcs, they should not be querried for attacks. However, if they have abilities that can trigger at the start or end of their Engagement phase, they should still be querried for those.

Probably the best way is here: https://github.com/Sandrem/FlyCasual/issues

Be sure to include screenshots of the issue and of the console (especially if the console pops up with red text).

There's also a thread in the main X-Wing forum, and Sandrem responds fairly often there as well.

Thanks! However, I don't know how to open and close the console. :P

I added the bugs and features, except one which was an existing duplicate, to the list. Thanks again!

It's also alright to add to the existing issue, especially if it's still open. No problem!

For some reason I just downloaded the 9.5 updated version and I cannot get the online (internet) tab to be able to select. Does anyone know how to request feedback on how to make this feature function or know of any special action required to make it function?

2 things.

1: Active thread for Fly Casual:

2: iirc @Sandrem has the internet portion on the back burner indefinitely due to time constraints. Real life obligations + keeping Fly Casual up to date with current X-Wing releases has them tapped out time wise.
