I may be missing something obvious here, but I've searched high and low through the autohost related forums and can't find any explaination of the difference between two player status types (indicated by the blue diamond and the pink one) that show in the game pages (where you upload your turn).

As far as I've read they do the same thing.

I also don't understand part of the description of the "pink" status - what does it mean by "House-keeping AI control / CPTR Player"? I don't see any options in the host utility to switch players over to computer control.

In the host utility I would assume the "Player inactive (do not wait for turn)" checkbox activated the blue status, and the "Player banned or dead (inactive and cannot submit turn files)" checkbox activates the grey status. How is the pink status activated?

If anyone could enlighten me regarding these things I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

Mr K
