In-game Messaging:

The Simcountry Messages subsystem has been redesigned. The primary goal was to add "Messages" to the Simcountry App.
As of today you can send messages to other players from the App
as well as from the Website. The Messages subsystem will also show messages sent by the Gamemaster.

The Website and the App now share the same User Interface. In future
updates the website and app will be brought closer together to expand the feature set available within the app.

Notifications:

The next Simcountry upgrade will add a 4th type of "Notification" to the
game.

Besides Facebook, Twitter and Email you can also schedule "Simcountry Message"notifications for important events in the game.

Email and Message notification can also be scheduled from the App. Facebook and Twitter notifications can only be scheduled from
the Website.

In addition, the next upgrade allows you to trigger App Notifications for
messages you receive in the game.
The App Notifications will popup on each device where you installed
the Simcountry App. A new version of the Simcountry App will be available
in the App Store to enable this new function.

I guess the simple question is, can I get emails about an entity about to expire and if war is declared on me now?

Holy smokes. I just logged in and what happened to the interface? Is there a way to see when my entities expire, specifically the "membership details" page, without accessing the site map?

Upper right corner of the page, looks like a dude in a bubble. "Manage account".

Wow. Thanks! Never would have found it. The size of the words "manage account" could not be any smaller.

Hi Aries,

You should get an email automatically when an entity is about to expire. Did an entity expire recently? Did you check your spam folder?

Notifications for war declarations can be configured per country.
Click 'Notifications' in the menu and select your country from the entity list. Once your country is selected there are several 'War' events that you can select.

Andy,

I think the new layout is cool. My only argument, some of the more important pages where forgotten.

I like the quick tabs on the side, because I can jump around rather quickly. However, I had to painfully dig over a dozen clicks to find my registration information.

My advice to remediate this issue is that when a player clicks "Account Status" instead of pulling up that pop up, instead direct the player to the "Membership Details" page. That way we can view account info, extend country or CEO's memberships if need be, and also gives us better access "Membership extensions", "Buying Gold coins", and "Money Transaction" page.

Hope this helps,
Super

Wow. I have to select the war declaration notification separately for a few dozen countries? For entity about to expire, yes I have checked spam folder. Those emails do not appear to go out.

Also when you got to Play menu on left of computer screen and then go to My countries an error message pops up saying Pronto Error.
I can still access my countries elsewhere.

I strongly disagree with Michael,

The forums should remain untouched. When you start deleting stuff you lose valuable information. History, Ideas, discussions are lost. Sure somethings are out of date, but there is a HUGE plethora of information to increase your skill and game play hidden in the forums.

@SuperSoldierRCP: In the menu on the left, "Account Status" has been replaced by "Assets" and "Membership". Clicking membership gives you the page you requested.

@Michael: The "My Countries" error has been fixed.

@Robert E Lee: We need a little more information besides "It is broke". We have tested the app on iOS and Android and both apps seem to work fine.
Maybe you can reinstall the app to see if it helps?
If it doesn't, please explain when it fails. Is there an error message?
