HealingMatgo Quitting Midway and Continuing – Does Closing the Game Cost You Points?
Sometimes something urgent comes up and you have to leave in the middle of a game. In HealingMatgo, the modes (Single Match, Tournament, War of the Gods) can be saved and continued later. However, if you close the window while a round is in full swing, your score may be reduced. Read on to find out in advance what happens. What gets reduced is your score, not your HP.
1. Mode progress is saved – Continue
If you press the Home button on the bracket screen or the War of the Gods ladder screen, your progress is saved and you return to the start screen. The screen shows the message “Progress is saved. You can continue in the same mode later”.
Next time you press the same mode button, you will be asked this.
| Button | What it does |
|---|---|
| Continue | Keep going from the saved bracket |
| Start over | Start again with a new bracket |
| Cancel | Close the popup and go back to the start screen |
In War of the Gods, your progress is saved when you leave with [Home]. Your best number of defeated gods and your number of attempts are also kept as records. When the mode ends (champion, eliminated or cleared), the saved progress is deleted and only the records remain.
2. If you close the window in the middle of a round
This is about closing the window while a round is in progress, not the mode screens. What happens depends on the situation.
| Situation | What happens |
|---|---|
| Before the opponent calls 1 Go or more | No score is deducted |
| You close the window during a round in which the opponent has called 1 Go or more | A confirmation window appears, and if you still quit, points are deducted |
This rule applies to both Endless mode and mode rounds. It exists to stop people from simply closing the game when the opponent is winning.
3. How much is deducted?
When you try to close the window, a confirmation window like this appears.
“(Name) is winning with N Go and N pts right now. If you quit midway, X pts × 3 = Y pts are deducted. Quit anyway?”
- The amount deducted = expected score × 3.
- What is deducted is your score. Your HP stays the same.
- Your score never goes below 0.
- This calculation happens only on your own computer and is not sent to the server.
4. When the game closes suddenly
What happens if the game closes suddenly because of a power outage or an error? If the opponent had called 1 Go or more in that round, the next time you log in a window appears saying “The game closed unexpectedly last time …”, and points are deducted in the same way. It appears before the daily gift.
If the saved record file is damaged and the amount cannot be calculated, a fixed 3,000 pts are deducted.
5. The quit confirmation window
When you press the quit button (X at the top right) while not in a round, the “Quit HealingMatgo?” confirmation window appears once the first time in each session. You can choose from [Quit] [Continue] [Tell a friend]. If there is a round in which the opponent has called 1 Go or more, the point-deduction confirmation window above appears instead of this one.
6. How to take a break safely
- If you are in a mode, press [Home] on the bracket or ladder screen.
- In Endless mode, quit after the round ends.
- If you must leave in the middle of a round, be sure to read the numbers in the confirmation window.
