Is There a Triple A North Africa Yet? If so where is it.
Was able to retreat to a just captured territory

@VictoryFirst said in Was able to retreat to a just captured territory:
Yes, I was thinking of that too. Does that also happen in other games like G40?
It never obivously occurred - as this has never been reported. But that is something to test now.
-
@VictoryFirst
Tested with G40:_2024-12-2-World-War-II-Global-1940-2nd-Edition.tsvg
So it does not happen in Global1940.
But I don’t know which core ruleset (old) Europe is based on codewise. So it might be that there are older core games where this issue has been incorrectly implemented.
I will start doing some tests recursively now. Maybe you can do some tests with older games, too.
-
Very strange. At the moment I am comparing the property lists of G40 and Europe, trying to see if there is any noteable difference there that might cause the issue.
-
v3-v5 don’t show the issue, they work correctly. Now testing v2.
-
I tested with Classic and was able to reproduce the issue
Bug also occurs in classic.tsvg
So here the fighter from Mocsow attacked Eastern Europe through Ukraine which was captured in a battle that same turn, and the land units are able to retreat from Eastern Europe to Ukraine.
-
And I tested v2 and the issue does not occur there.
So old Europe map is codewise based on v1 ruleset.
I am now going to check the retreat rules of v1. -
Just checked Revised, no problems there.
-
@VictoryFirst Revised=v2
-
OK, so the old Europe Map codewise is based on Classic (v1) rules. Here the retreat rule is as follows:
So the plane came from a territory that - at the time of retreating - is friendly (as it was captured before). The rules are different from other editions.
So engine-wise the behaviour is correct. The Europe map is codewise based on a ruleset that allows this special retrat move. It’s against the Europe rulebook however.
-
Ah, that explains it. Thanks!
-
It looks like the players - once again - have to take care of the game rules themselves. As v1 rules differ from the Europe 1999 -rulebook.
