This problem can be related to many things. First of all, be sure you use the
*exact* same version of glob2 on all computers. Then, is this still happen, then
it's a bug.


If this does happen, please send up all of these files from *all* computers 
playing:

glob2.world-desynchronization.dump.txt
ChecksumUnits.log
ChecksumBuildings.log
Checksum.log

And a saved game if possible. (AutoSave.game)
And the way each computer got glob2 installed. (for instance: "self-compiled
CVS" or "debian package"). And options. (for instance "with "-O2" optimisation
flags, or "debian sarge".) Then which username each computer did use.

Without at least full logs of 2 computers, we *cannot* find out anything.

These desync bug are especially tough to debug, they don't occur easily to us,
because we use the same compiler and same OS. So every piece of information can
help.

Thank you for any help!
