Todo-List for TripleA Global 1940 2nd edition

@Gargantua Right. The issues are already addressed:

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35803/battle-calculator-not-working
and
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35846/submarine-related-issues-with-triplea

and have been analyzed by the developers here:

https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/7848

As far as I have understood the problems occur when not all players are on the most current stable version. Once a game is either started with an older release or a savegame started with the current version is opened with an older version the games are somehow corrupted.

This is why I have added the following note to some of the stickies here:

Note:
Problems in games started in the past cannot be resolved by updating the TripleA client, as updating the client does not change the game information stored in savegame files. In other words: As long as nobody starts new games with up-to-date clients and maps, the problems, saved in savegame-files, will be carried over and continue.

Also: To avoid issues it is always recommended that all players use the latest stable version to beginn new games. So when playing together, reassure yourself that everyone is up-to date.

Intriguing. I didn’t realize someone had gotten as far as making at least a functional map and XML that could be played using a decent amount of edits. There is always a chance that TripleA would support 1914 but it would require a developer to make a number of engine enhancements to support the many ‘interesting’ rules that added.

FYI these are the vicotry conditions coded for Revised:

    <property name="Projection of Power" value="true" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Honorable Surrender" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Total Victory" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>

And for LHTR:

    <property name="Projection of Power" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Honorable Surrender" value="true" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Total Victory" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>

You can set Projection of Power, Honorable Surrender or Total Victory in the game options.

You can modify the values only by editing the respective game.xml.

Just to bring it to attention:

In AA50 - when using Heavy Bombers for SBR - TripleA adds +1 to the best result of the two rolls, when it should only be
“You roll two dice for each bomber and select the best result when you attack or make a strategic bombing raid.”

I will try to report that on tripleadev, too.

(In Global 1940 this extra +1 is not added, although in both games “LHTR Heavy Bombers” is marked in the Game Options.)

I wasn’t sure where to put this, but it is an unresolved issue.  Could we create a “tip jar” for the creator?  Or swear on our dead horse that we will eventually purchase a physical copy of AnA in order to protect intellectual property rights?  Do I think most of us already have a copy?  Yes.  Multiple editions?  Yes.  I just wish there was some way to express that.

It works in reverse, I think.  New players who might be exposed to triplea first will inevitably buy a physical copy.  These things must have crossed someone else’s mind, no?

@Gargantua:

Good work Hobbes on getting a working V5/V6 going.  It’s nice to see such a quick transition from game release, to TripleA readiness!

Just don’t pay too much attention to the graphic look… I couldn’t wait anymore until my ordered Spring 1942 2nd Ed arrives at my local store (takes quite a while usually) ;)

Come on over to the homepage and post your question- it’s an active community and I’m sure you’ll get help.
