    @LaFayette Thanks. Although it is curiouser and curiouser (to quote Lewis Carroll) why onezingy could get on but not others. He did text he downloaded the latest game engine if it matters. You can close the this thread then.

    Thank you for the reply. I acctually solved it by examining maps that had it in their map options, like "the Great War". Not(!) every map has that code line in it's xml file, but at least as long as the map is based on WW2V2 rules, you can add the option to limit battle rounds by adding the above code lines to the xml files, like so; Find map in triplea/downloadedMaps/'map name' in map folder open file map/games/'map name'.xml find code section <propertyList> insert following code lines like image below; [image: battleroundslimited.png] Then you should be able to freely tweak battle rounds limit. Hope this thread is helpful to others as well Happy conquering!

    After intensively thinking I decided to make world map because it will be already possible to turn it into European map if somebody intend. [image: Project - Kopya.png] Different aspects which will separated it from most other WWII maps but mostly it will be with v3 units and rules. More realistic incomes: Germany and USA will be relatively more stonger Double Sea zones in English Channel: Giving Germany opportunity threataning Allies shippings with submarines and air units considering Germany will start with French factory and most sea territores will be blockade zones. German Mediterranean: Germany will touch Adriatic. Russian's "life of road": Lake Ladoga is connected to lake of Onega which connects to Barents sea. Russia will need naval presence on the lake to reinfore easily Leningrad. Russia will have a specific cheap naval unit for this task which transports and defends. Siberians: Russian special unit with 2/3 stats and 3 Pus cost but can be placed on only south siberian factories and Russia starts with Mongolia. The issue is I'am undecided about the starting date. First option is Germany-Italy starts on prior of Barbarossa and Japan prior of the attack on Pearl harbour timelines the other one is either December 1941 or May 1942.

    I have also noticed the failure to build factories recently. Something has changed. The problem with unbalanced builds is an old one. If you gave the AI a lot of money, it will build all planes. This should be an easy problem to fix, by just limiting planes to no more than half of units purchased.

    It'll be hard to say more until we know more about this problem. FWIW, save games have always required parts of the original map (for example territory names IIRC). There has been an attempt over time to reduce the dependency on an existing map, but for sure you do need a map to load a save game for that map. Name hacking will be unreliable but could work if you know what you're doing.

    @ubernaut yes, anytime your turn starts, you should grab a save, both hosts and guests.

    @bluelionman yea so v3 rules I assuming, subs don't block ships but DDs block subs. So DD can cruise on by They're probably headed to port for some shore leave.

    @bluelionman yea those are the A&A rules so that's why it does it. You can mod things so they behave differently to a certain extent, although I'm unfortunately having some trouble with that in the current release.

  • Regarding maps with multiple games, I think the Gameplay Quality vote should be based on the best one of the games (meaning that, if I add a bad variant as a game inside a map already having one or more games, that should not decrease the Gameplay Quality of the map).

    read more

  • I would suggest splitting quality between Gameplay Quality and Graphic Quality (possibly also a third column for how good sounds are, which would be left empty if the map does not have a "sounds" folder).

    These are such different things that I always find weird to imagine how can you mix them together in a single quality vote.

    Of course, judging Graphic Quality is much easier than judging Gameplay Quality.

    This would especially make sense if map-skins come back: map-skins can only be judged for Graphic Quality but never for Gameplay Quality.

    A cool column to have would be the year when the map was originally released, so you could have the history of TripleA in an organized list. However, I guess this information is not any longer available for most maps...

    The closest to your suggestion is minimumVersion

    This gives the minimumVision to play the map.

    However, AFAIK the latest series of releases fix so many of 2.5.22294 problems and runs faster and occupies less RAM. Why run an an old version?

    My 2c, not worth putting it in a table.

    .

    As a 4th column, it may be good having a "Games" column, meaning how many games the map contains. This would be probably a 1 for 80% of games, but it may be a good information.
    However, I'm not sure if telling how many games there are in a map is really that important, so I'm not saying that I suggest to add this 4th column: it's just an idea, but I'm not sure if it is worth the addition. Opinions?

    Again my 2c, not worth the effort/white space used.
