@Cernel I updated it

@general_zod No, nothing that I am aware of. You can see here https://github.com/triplea-maps when the maps have been touched.

@wqgaming Try this link.

@scousemart It is always possible that issues mentioned in the game notes might have been fixed in the meantime.

But concerning this issue you can easily reproduce the flaw in Global when for example you can bring an Infantry from Germany to the transport in SZ 114 during Combat Move Phase - and another one for example from Poland during Noncombat Move Phase. Clear violations of the rules, but incorrectly possible in TripleA.
There may be other related scenarios of course.

hey thanks for the reply - playing on World At War Map v2.1.1

engine 1.9.0.0.7621

have been playing on an ok laptop that can run it no problem but also my desktop which can run anything - thx

@prastle It was to TripleA for lobby and or PBEM play, but its fixed now, at least it was apparently non existant. Thanks for your reply and attempt to help.

Right on Thanks

Yeah, it varies a lot map by map because many of even the standard ww2 maps have standard bids around 10-15 for human players let alone the AI. Best thing is to run the AI vs itself or just play a bunch of games with different bonuses.

@mariner2929 You can also create a custom diplomatic structure. However that requires some in depth xml knowledge.

@taplayerzz To give you a rough overview of the way the dice are being rolled:

When playing PbF/PbEM

Whenever a player needs dice rolls to determine a result of a battle, a request to dice.tripleawarclub.org is being made over a secure HTTPS connection (relatively strong encryption for web standards). On a successfull roll (i.e. a valid request) an email is being sent to each player to prevent someone to just reload an old savegame from a round ago and replay the same scenario and get different results that may favor someone elses turn. So if you get 2 emails mentioning the "same" battle, you know something's odd.

Playing over the internet Private hosts

No guarantees here, the private host has full control over his server code in theory

'Bots' aka Official Hosts

We host the bots ourselves and have therefore ensured that the code is unaltered.
The actual rolling is done on the bots, so therefore no practical way of altering the code remotely.
However the results are being sent over an unsecure connection, so in theory someone could hijack your private connection and simulate a complete game for you i.e. pretend you rolled bad although you didn't, because at some point the results become out-of-sync with the actual game, but this is really unlikely because our netcode is at the moment really compilcated to deal with, so probably not worth trying unless someone has waaay too much time (if such a person exists, feel free to join us, there's lots of code to fix ^^).

TL;DR While it's in theory possible to play games on you by altering your connection, it's not possible to reasonably alter your dice results in a trivial way, unless of course someone found an exploit in our code or something, in which case we had a more severe issue than faked dice results.

Additional Info:
While online games are being played over an insecure connection, the passwords being sent for private matches are transmitted securely. (We aren't security experts, but based on our knowledge on best-practices in the recent time, we consider it secure, feel free to prove us wrong)

@redrum Thanks. Will do. I appreciate the help!

Yeh I think I see my problem. It looks like its a tech development now and not just a specialty unit. (sigh)

This error message normally means that you don't have a working Internet connection.
If this error just happens once, it's probably just a short outage of a server somewhere, otherwhise we might need to check a couple of things.

@scousemart si 🙂
You can swap in the engine settings now if a wish

@darksend All I can say is that the AI uses the same dice roller as the human does. Everyone remembers the bad rolls better than the good. If you are struggling to beat the Hard AI consistently then feel free to post a few save games and I'm sure some of the experienced players here would be glad to give you some tips.

@willk_1230

I play extremely few non live games. But I presume the defender should always be given the choice if it is not a live game. So that would mean sending a email to the defender asking how many to scramble or sending him the file to scramble it himself and have him resend it to you once completed.

@scousemart
Indeed, for the first "attempt" it is irrelevant whether the option "Repost Turn Summary" is checked or not.

Which is your email provider? Did you use the email bound to this forum account?
In the past there were sometimes problems with certain providers.
Create a gmail-account and it should work.
