    One challenge is having a mechanism to associate a game notes file with the game file. Having the two files with matching names and the notes file being suffixed with '-notes.html' might be easy enough. For example: world_at_war.xml world_at_war-notes.html

    @wc_sumpton I don't think that is the problem. I am basing this off of other maps that have fully functional user actions, and they don't have conditions in the activated triggers. This text change is also the only thing that isn't working correctly in those triggers. It seems like it is firing the trigger and making the change, and then calling the text to display, after it has changed it. As i read what I am typing, it doesn't seem like it is as clear as it could be, so please ask questions if it isn't clear.

    Ah, just saw the responses : ) The variable route would work, you are still duplicating the territory names, but at least it's more concise.

    Thanks for pointing me to the property @Cernel ; I'd like to keep updates limited to the game data assembly layer. That means for now I'll leave the "Control All Canals Between Territories To Pass" property unaltered.

    We could even remove the <territoryAttachment> node altogether, eg: <territory name="Quebec"> <owner value="Canadians"/> <unitProduction value="3" /> <kamikazeZone value="true" /> <placements> : : Thoughts? For canals, they attach to multiple territories, nesting underneath one territory would potentially not be as helpful as it could be. Here is an example of what we have today: <attachment name="canalAttachmentCentral America - Colombia" attachTo="25 Sea Zone" javaClass="games.s trategy.triplea.attachments.CanalAttachment" type="territory"> <option name="canalName" value="the Central America - Colombia channel"/> <option name="landTerritories" value="Central America:Colombia"/> </attachment> <attachment name="canalAttachmentCentral America - Colombia" attachTo="100 Sea Zone" javaClass="games.strategy.triplea.attachments.CanalAttachment" type="territory"> <option name="canalName" value="the Central America - Colombia channel"/> <option name="landTerritories" value="Central America:Colombia"/> </attachment> I think that might be better as one 'canal' tag. It's a really good call-out - though if it's going to be a different tag then perhaps topic for another thread (thread created: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/2269/proposal-simpler-canal-node)

  • Second combat movement phase

    Well I have played with it a little more. If the area one attacks during the first combat phase is still enemy-controlled at the end of the first combat phase (either because you just attack with air units or because there is a ground unit but it does not survive the attack), then during the second combat movement phase you can move a friendly ground unit into the area and then directly into another enemy-controlled area. Otherwise, you can move into the attacked, now-friendly-controlled area, but not then move from there into an enemy-controlled area. Then I tried putting the second combat movement and combat at the very end of the turn, after the EndTurn phase and now it works, I can move into the previously attacked area (whether it is friendly-controlled or enemy-controlled) and from there directly into an enemy-controlled area. You cannot use air units to support any attack you make in the second combat phase (because they had to land during noncombat movement). But this does not bother me. If anyone has a better way to do this please let me know.

    @Numetalfan The saved game carries a copy of the xml used to create the game. Any changes made to the xml will not show in a saved game. To test changes you have to always start a new game. Cheers...

    @Jason-Green-Lowe heh heh friendly advice was just saying you could have it included in the original map for a one click activation instead of an entirely separate map

    -can i make tech dice basically hit every time (so they hit at 1 or higher, basically you pay 20 ipcs for guarenteed tech unlock)

    <property name="Low Luck for Technology" value="true" editable="true"> <boolean/> </property>

    Give the player the number of dice equal to "diceSides".

    @Ramon said:

    <option name="isMarine" value="true"/>

    "isMarine" takes a number value. "isMarine"=true is converter to "isMarine"=1. "isMarine" can also be set to negative values.

    @Ramon said:

    If i understand correctly you can basically give conscripts 1 attack, and make every unit (except trenches) debuff them with 1?

    Yea.. but upon further testing, because both units are 0, the buff was not applied, so I'm still working on this.

    Hi

    The answer is yes but I can't find an example at the moment. Roger, The Dog or the Master wc will clue you in most likely 🙂

    but it has something to do with "rolls" and "chance' if i remember right.

    From POS2

    Hi WC!

    Thanks a lot for your time and effort!

    If i understand correctly you can basically give conscripts 1 attack, and make every unit (except trenches) debuff them with 1?

    I have 2 more questions:

    -can i make tech dice basically hit every time (so they hit at 1 or higher, basically you pay 20 ipcs for guarenteed tech unlock)
    -for a unit such as a marine can i give it +1 amphibious attack?
