@TorpedoA I think Hepps uses 12 in total world war. Gives a lot more flexibility. I've never done it myself. Just mod existing games

@TorpedoA You'd have to test this... but I fear you may run into issues as there is no way trigger a unit change in the midst of the combat phase. Not sure how the scramble and Kamikaze attachments will interact when the unit remains in the territory it scrambled to.

@JOSEPH-PRINCE @Hepps Thanks guys for the images.... I am ending this Thread and will move to a new one with the name:
GLOBAL WWII OIL & SNOW-Project

( https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/2592/global-wwii-oil-snow-project ) as I am heading for sharing on github soon.... ( and having plans for a side project next month )
thanks al for sharing , teaching and feedbacking me so far!

One does not simply take a very good looking "big" multi-coloured image and shrink it down to about 48 per 48 pixels to obtain a very good looking "small" image. The likely result is a bad looking image.

The way the eyesight works is that the colour from a point is decreasingly spread over nearby visual areas in our perceived image, so images using few pixels have each pixel dirtying with its colour all nearby pixels, whereas such effect is virtually irrelevant for big images.

Hi, I did all steps including upload and changing ownership

can you check this? Hope I've done all correctly

@LaFayette can anybody do this ? Or is there a bot person that one can ask to update ? I think prastle used to do bot stuff but not anymore.

At any rate, thanks for the explanation.

@Numetalfan add another condition to your trigger. Something like:

<attachment name="conditionAttachmentTurn2OrHigher" attachTo="Germans" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.RulesAttachment" type="player">
<option name="rounds" value="2-+"/>
</attachment>

I think the -+ makes it fire after round 2 as well. i can't remember

@TorpedoA Sounds way sweet. Bet you have a lot of good ideas. I'll try and check it out soon.

Our tech ideas came from Age of Tribe's tech tree!

Incredible this worked!

In my game, AI does place Bunkers if i purchased them by trigger. But the AI does ignore the maxConstruction per Terr.

Thanks alot. I will try.

@Numetalfan Seems strange to have (what I would presume to be) 2 very different units being used to create the same defensive unit upon merging.

Hi, I spent some time redrawing the map. The idea is as attached.
This was mostly cleaning up the sea zones, making lines straighter and merging some of them. For example, the two sea zones off the coast of asia have been merged, making it harder for japan to recover if america gets naval dominance. Do you think this would help the problem of KGF?

@RogerCooper By the way, I made a simple tool that will generate variableLists from all territories and players and put that in your game file. It's the vars command from the CLI here: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/2501/command-line-tools-for-map-making

@Hepps here's a few of the things

@LaFayette yea, sorry I wasn't very clear. So the map is "Oztea 1939 Global" and it was on the latest "engine stable" 2.5 ??? and I updated game xml from 1.93 to 1.94 at git.

The bots in the lobby were still running 1.93. I saw a game being played and tried to join and it would just show it trying to join. After a minute, I tried again. Same result.

Went back to the lobby and the two guys playing said I screwed up their game and that I had wrong version. I didn't notice the bot was on 1.93 and not 1.94.

It'd been a couple weeks I think since the update, so it didn't occur to me the bot would still have the older version.

At any rate, I was wondering if this will prevent crashing peoples games in bots if you have different xml version numbers and try to join.

Another important implication, having the map.yml file will replace the need for a mapName and gameName attribute to be specified in the XML, both of those attributes will become ignored after the map.yml file is used by the engine (perhaps starting in release 2.6)
