TripleA engine - Known rules-related bugs/issues

@mvk20:

Thanks - so does it play for the Minor, Major, or Total Victory?

In the “Map Options” you see the default setting for the victory conditions (see screenshot) for this map.
“Projection of Power” is marked.

By the coding of this map, this translates to:

    <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>

So TripleA will prompt you once one Alliance gets 9 victory cities.

Note that you can continue the game as long as you want, regardless of the information given by the engine.

HTH :-)

Congrats on the bombing fix, well done, indeed!

Regarding those automatisms the benefit IMHO depends on the user: For well experienced players this might help speeding up the game. For beginners and those using TripleA to learn the mechanics of Axis and Allies, I would prefer not to leave too much to the engine and possible automatisms (see my above statement). So giving the choice to either run (whatever) processes automatically or manually would be just perfect, IMHO.

Have a writing talent that you would like to put to work? Or would like to contribute to TripleA but don’t know how?

We are drafting an idea for a TripleA blog. As the website admin, I am responsible for lining up some authors. I know that A&A.org has a great blog, and we thought that launching a blog devoted to TripleA would nicely cap the successful development of the new TripleA website, which will be official as of version 1.8.0.10. Potential topics for post may include:

Strategy for any of the TripleA maps, including WWII

Map design tips and tricks

Challenges and Tournaments

Showcasing a “Game of the Month”

Announcements

Most other TripleA related content (I am the editor, so I will moderate.)

Please post below if you would like to commit to writing a few articles a month, or even commit to contribution, in any form. We are looking for contributors, and are looking for anyone who would like to volunteer. If we get enough volunteers, the plan will go though. Please feel free to ask any questions below.

Took a while, but looks like we’re back in business  :-D

Thanks Barney. Will need to wait 12 hours to check, as I am an idiot and my wife will need to do it and she won’t be free until late tonight. Will report back when she has tried it.

There are some old versions of Global 1940 as Alpha1 and Alpha2? In TripleA there are Original, Alpha 3 and Second Edition, but exists another Alpha in .xml?

Yep, sounds like the Gambler’s fallacy to me!
