Battle Calculator not working

@Panther roger

@allister

TripleA does that automatically for you. Get an overview at the “Players” tab on the right side of the screen.

@barnee I am not able to recreate the bug anymore, I suppose it’s only the first time I loaded, the result above was done by your method, with the renamed folder instead of the zip file.

@kwaspek104 said in 1914 doesn't work for me?:

Yeah it was odd because it was the only map that wasn’t working. As for Triple A forums…I still can’t post there lol even after doing what Panther suggested. Oh well, a trench battle for another day.

There are two things that may prevent you from posting:

So did you confirm your mail-address when the mail from the TripleA-forum asked you to do so?

@simon33 said in Triple-A 2.1 battle cycling:

But they break the post function. Doh! I’ll log an issue for post not working.

The last version I successfully tested turn posting with was 2.1.20613.
Now I have just retried with 2.1.20696 - no issues again.

Maybe just a temporary issue that occurred to you?

@FMErwinRommel Good find! As in Global “UK Pacific units” simply do not exist.
By the rules “All combat moves, combat, and noncombat moves are made or conducted as any other power’s single, united force.”
So the TripleA battle calculator seems to somehow “sort” those units depending on whether they are on the European side of the map or on the Pacific side of the map.

Interestingly this does not occur with sea units. Those are correctly represented as being “British”, even on the Pacific side of the map.

@redrum :

In the attached savegame please use the BattleCalculator and look at SZ 37 and 39. The UK ships are correctly represented as “British”. The Infantry units in Malaya instead are incorrectly represented as “UK Pacific”, while they should be “British”, too. Switching to “British” sets everything to “Zero”. This is not exactly @FMErwinRommel 's scenario, but good enough to represent the issue.

@ShadowHAwk:

This will actualy affect the outcome of your battles a lot and your calculation will be off.

2 inf + 1 bomber have the same attack value as 3 art. But if putted against 3 inf the 2 inf + bombers comby has a slightly higher chance to win.

Of course, because you’re losing 2 attack power with the first two casualties instead of only 1, and the 4 remains until last instead of a 2.

First of all, my approximations with carriers or tacs are done normally in much larger battles than 3 on 3 and the error is in fact negligible.  Again, the point is to get a probability distribution which Triple A doesn’t provide.  None of the good calculators I’ve found have been updated to accommodate G40.

My approximations using bombers in place of infantry/AAA is pretty accurate, because in almost all cases those units will be eliminated in the first round of the battle.
