    @VictoryFirst

    I think TripleA’s “oversight” is not and cannot be bound to a single combat move. By the rules all combat movement happens at the same time. As this - for reasons of usability - must be performed step by step the sequence of combat moves is arbitrary. So it can only be after all combat moves have been executed that TripleA might be enabled to check for valid landing spaces.

    In this game the attack on Malaya (isolated) will be valid if you bring the carrier from SZ 36 to SZ 37, what gives a valid landing space, and when you move the one from SZ37 to SZ38 you have a valid landing space for the planes there, too (or bring the carrier from SZ 36 to 38 directly and leave the one in 37 there). But in that case only one carrier is present for the three planes in SZ 54 and 62. So here you could blame the movement of three fighters to the seazones south-east of Australia (instead of the attack on Malaya).

    So - in case you don’t want the players to be resonsible for their movement - the engine should be enabled to check for landing spaces at the end of Combat Move Phase. During Combat Move Phase TripelA - at the time of executing each move - simply cannot “know” the follow up moves.

    But let us further discuss that on https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/14508 .

    @Panther Thanks for your input!

    @Amon-Sul said in BM4 Amon-Sul (Allies +15) vs. Pejon_88 (Axis):

    If Shan State wasnt taken , i think the program probably wouldnt allow the sz 62 attack

    Just stating already that that has not caused the issue. I started a save file from the start of the Japanese turn, didn’t purchase anything and only did the movements of the 7 air units in question. Still, TripleA allowed the movement of all 7 air units at any point, even though it is obvious one air unit will not have a landing spot. EVen when the fighter moving to SZ 62 is the very last move, the engine still allows it.

    That being said, there are complex cases where the engine does correctly disallow some air attacks, when there are multiple carriers involved. One actually occurred in a game I am currently playing against Simon33 on G13, where the engine correctly prevents the movement of one fighter to SZ 91.

    Thanks a lot dude

    It seems triple a has a bug sometimes (not Always, which makes it hard to detect) on this Isuse

    Good to know

    Hope it resolves somehow

    Until then we ll be more careful
