What might work is this; (it might show the changes?)
Load your game to the point of the first move
Help> Unit help
Take a screen shot
Close Unit help
change the map.properties and save it

@rogercooper said in Max Units:

@beelee Graying out would be better than removal.

I agree

@lafayette lol that guy is a funny read 😆

@rickenbacker said in Map features to help newer players?:

Is there a way to toggle sea zone numbers on?

Yes-ish
Edit the map.properties
Add this on a new line map.showSeaZoneNames=true
and save it

What about a zoom in to 125% or 150%?

Download the latest version of TripleA from here
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases
It can zoom in and out with ctrl+mouse scroll
It also has lots of goodies and is faster than 2.5 for AI players.

@beelee3 thanks - no idea whythere aren't global players, but games evolve, I guess. Yes I'll look for your thread for future comments

@rogercooper very good suggestion. Do you think the same also can be applied to German-Soviet war and Axis-USA war too?

@silverbullet ill be honest. I'm still in the changer step and was headed to bed i used the arrow. Wen't back in as germany and used the f key. I like the highlight key too. Haven't seen how to unhighlight. guessing it will go away post turn? Night both are great

@cernel yea right now the Para units only get the bonus if there are only Para units in the attack. Any other unit negates the bonus. So even if they only move 1 space, they are still considered "Air Dropped" for combat purposes.

Edit
yea I wouldn't want it hardcoded. Current AAcombat allows for multiple rounds. These guys rules have the Paras only working as above. I wouldn't be opposed to them working differently as in "Air Dropped" get bonus even with other units present. That can be done with the current supportAttachments though

@frigoref sounds good to me I'll add it to the first post

Is this topic correctly categorized (and should stay in the Feature Requests & Ideas section)? If so, I would suggest to clarify what the requested feature is.

Experimenting a bit more, maybe having it in the same box as the territory name is a good approach:

@beelee
Have you though about using 'unitPlacementRestrictions'?

Using 'variable' create a list of 'element' for all territories on the map. Then, for those unit you do not want built, set 'unitPlacementRestrictions' to the list, the one that are going to be built just use '-reset-'.

Cheers...

@beelee 😂

@beelee

I usually use a batchfile to delete all of them with a single click.
The ones I want to keep go to a sub -folder.

@alexei-svitkine

This had been possible in the past when the PBF-settings allowed to select either the local dicey or the remote MARTI-dice. Unfortunately this feature had been removed accidentally - and players do miss this feature.

It has already been discussed to reinstate this feature, but.... well ...

See:

Some thoughts:

Personally I would not want to install another bloaty (Steam) client just to be able to use TripleA. But as long as TripleA will be kept as an independently installable software I would not object.

Concerning the user base: I have no idea if and how the user base would enlarge. But if it did it would mean, that the need for support and explanation would increase, too. Now who will cover that? Who will monitor Steam-forums and maybe Discord-channels?
On A&A .org, the PBF-base of a remarkable user-base, it is basically me as a one-man-show who helps users with troubleshooting in case of software problems on their side.
And I must admit that - at least since 2.6 - development - this "job" has become harder for me as 'improvements' of the software to me have become more and more unclear. Not a complaint - just a remark that giving support to me becomes harder and harder, too. I am not sure how long I will be willing to continue this.

Before thinking of enlarging the user base by using one of the popular game distribution sites one should reflect what is feasible not only concerning the possible consequences - but also concerning the current lineup, too.

@stohrm well there is a button that'll cycle through all your units that haven't moved. It can be helpful at times. I don't use it much personally. A live game would probably be different though.

@rainova Later I've concluded that units having different sizes in different territories could be unpleasant to see.
