Saves will usually work when you upgrade from one version to another, although it is not guaranteed.

Also, there may be major changes in the storyline from one version to another, making old saves invalid with a new version.

If you are considering upgrading from version 0.6.1 to 0.6.99.1, then saves will probably work, but it isn't guaranteed.

You don't get your units that you saved, because we haven't found a fair way to implement this yet.

Log onto the server and see, or use an irc client to come to #wesnoth at irc.freenode.net and ask for a game there.

You'll have to give more information about what platform you're using (Windows, Mac, GNU/Linux, etc) to get information on the install and update process.

Generally though, you just install a new version of the program over the top of the old version.

IRC clients are freely available for almost all platforms (certainly all platforms that Wesnoth has been ported to).

If you're using Windows, you should be able to get mIRC, if GNU/Linux, then Xchat, or another IRC client. Just do a search.

That would be an error.

- what version are you using?
- what platform are you on?
- what host are you trying to connect to?
- at what point does it quit the game?

Okay. This is a bug which I am now working to fix. Thank you for the bug report.

Meantime, you can change the server to devsrv.wesnoth.org to connect and play.
