How to create a Global 1940 variant?

Okay.

I created this set of house rules:

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/40017/axis-and-allies-global-1940-armies-vs-navies-compatible-with-triplea

As you can see, it takes a substantial amount of edit mode to make things work.

I would like to create my own game, using the Global 1940 map, using the house rules I wrote above.

I tried doing this myself and I’m very, very confused, on many things, such as:

What does each line in those xml files mean? I can probably figure it out myself, but that’s a lot of reading.

How do you make it “show up” or “accepted” by TripleA (as in, how can I make it show up and work in the “select maps” tab)?

It seems like each house rule has their own xml file and description, but are in the same folder if they share a common map. Is this correct? Thank you!

Can anyone guide me on the process for making this? Again, I just want to change the xml, I don’t even need to make a new map.

@SuperbattleshipYamato

This is far from being easy.

I recommend that you start to investigate at https://forums.triplea-game.org/

You will find a lot of related topics and information - also you might get in touch with people familiar with map making / editing as well as learn about the process of bringing maps into TripleA.

Good luck!
