Hello,

I can confirm the below - tried running PBeM logs created with 4.1.1 using
4.0.12 and the map would mostly not update or only erratically.

Once I upgraded to 4.1.1 logs and map updates all worked OK, but I found VASL
atrociously slow when dragging a single counter on or around the map, it
would take up to 2 minutes to update: unplayable. This was only when I did
the handling though, I could play live and watch others' moves just fine.

I was advised to upgrade my JRE install to the latest (went from _01 to _03),
which was easy enough. I then had to re-install VASL 4.1.1 as it was no
longer pointing to the right JRE.

Now everything is tickety-boo, hunky-dory!

Cheers
