I'm seeing this error message when I try to end turns in two specific games. My other games are still playing fine.

I'm playing on an iPod Touch over Wifi; iPod is updated to v3.0 software and UniWar is updated to 1.03.

Resetting the iPod didn't fix it. I've tried removing and reinstalling UniWar; this allows me to retake my moves (which btw is theoretically exploitable, isn't it?) but when I end turn I still get the "error connecting to the server" message.

Any suggestions?

I'm seeing the same problem with one of my games: DEADMONK75687. All my others are fine.

Yup, same problem, any fixes for this, or do we just have to get booted?

I am stuck the same way in
"unrated 12hr FP" 8 player Full Planet mixed races.
Can this game be fixed?
I cant surrender or offer peace either.
I am Krahleans and we're only on round 3
ZeroBurn is Player 1 so probably created it.
I created a similar game with 7 bots (all 3 races) unrated and no fog of war on Full Planet also, which worked right through to completion.

same here, have had it on multiple games, also had error stating that the game lost synchronization with server and to reload. of course, that didn't do anything. resetting the iphone didn't work either. i even deleted and reinstalled the game completely, which hasn't worked either.

Like MarkWeston I also am on ipod touch with software V 3.0 and Uniwar 1.0.3.

Like he did, I tried deleting and re-installing Uniwar, and I switched off and on like Apple recommends. I too found myself back at the start of the turn but no matter what I chose to do it still will not end turn without server error.

I have been getting server errors on end turn when I have been a while deliberating, but if I go back to MAIN LOBBY to save my progress, and quit Uniwar, then I notice no bars on the wifi indicator icon, then it pops up if I wait a second or 2, after which I restart Uniwar and open the game same place and end turn, all is usually ok. I think there is an issue with Uniwar and the way it uses the wifi after a lengthy period in the game - or it may be OS3.0 but it seems to disconnect if traffic falls quiet. I am trying reducing the refresh time as an experiment. Doesn't help the "stuck game" though.

I have the same problem with the one game I'm playing. I've also had wifi dropping out. I can't end the game on 3G with wifi disconnected as well.
