    Little one is a galley, big one is a man of war. Both can fight, I really dislike the instantly killed dedicated transports of some games.

    Random though about this. Currently you can make a trigger fire another trigger. <option name="activateTrigger" value="triggerAttachmentRussians5_FarEastReserves:1:false:false:false:false"/> (Format: "triggerName:numberOfTimes:useUses:testUses:testConditions:testChance") How doable would the following be? <option name="activateRandomTrigger" value="triggerAttachment1:triggerAttachment2:triggerAttachment3" count="2"/> The above would fire exactly 2 of those 3 triggers at random. IDK how important the additional options are for activateTrigger (I don't understand what the test things do, and if I wanted to fire the trigger more than once I would just put more lines) Also I investigated and I do not have the global conquest map on this computer. Sorry

    @comr Best thing is to play some of the new/complex maps and read the POS2 XML to understand what is available today: https://github.com/triplea-maps/the_pact_of_steel/blob/master/map/games/pact_of_steel_2.xml The AI overview and backlog of improvements are here: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/105/ai-development-discussion-and-feedback. I wrote all of the Fast/Hard AI so know all of the algorithms/code for it. It was primarily written to play the standard A&A maps (classic, revised, v3, global, etc) so it performs reasonably well on maps that primarily use similar rules. But if you try to have the AI play Total World War or Civil War, it plays very poorly and doesn't understand many of the features used in those games. Suggestions and contributions are always welcome and you can find the AI code here: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/tree/master/game-core/src/main/java/games/strategy/triplea/ai

    @willk_1230 So if by eligible Minor Factories... you mean the one in Novgorod and the one in Volgograd... then it is because neither is eligible to be up-graded. "Major industrial complexes can be built only in originally controlled (not captured) territories with an IPC value of 3 or higher." Page 23 Restictions on Placement Pragraph 4. Here is a link to the manual for your reference.... https://www.axisandallies.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Axis-Allies-Europe-1940-Second-Edition.pdf

    I know the owner of the map is not around, so what I'm asking here is what most players understand or anyway play with.

    @cernel Ah, well yaml file updates just determine whether users that have the map downloaded get prompted to update it. Probably don't need to update it for a minor change like this. But not a big deal either way.

    @willk_1230 unless you already have one there you should be able to. Post a save and we'll try and see what's up

    @general_zod Got the support bonuses working: UBr Update Filters may be configured under "Settings" (Not 100% happy with those yet) The techAttachments do not look like they will be useful. Since they are dependant on whether the player has the tech or not, it would be hard to display, unless there is a popup with all techs switched on, but ... messy...

    @drbrunch Hi dr It's mostly a personal preference thing. NWO uses it. Their reasoning was for when you have AAguns shooting at air units during flyovers in CM, you would know before purchase if you lost any air. As far as the mod goes, if it's RD 4, Russia can attack regardless of the phase order. Suppose the Game Notes could be updated to reflect that.

    @oda Overall, definitely a step in the right direction. I think you have at least a good core unit set now and the infrastructure portion is pretty interesting. I think just layering on a few more of the features you have planned then starting to get some games going to test balance is a good approach. If you have any questions on the XML or would like feedback on any particular areas just let me know.

    @mahks To expand on above explanations. If the game located in C:\username/triplea/downloadedMaps/*gamename*/map is lacking an image or sound file. It will look in the following location. Which is the TripleA engine's installed location. The typical install location for the triplea engine and the "assets" folders are below. C:\Program Files/TripleA v.1.9.x.x.xxx/assets flags misc resources sounds units territoryEffects (this one is missing now?)

    I have 2 sketch maps (just ignore the WWI borders); feel free to use them as a baseline if you like.

    Will these be the final forms of the base map and the territories?

    The curvature on the maps does not look good. It is better to use Mercator as a base and then reshape manually wherever needed.

    Enlarge Europe from dawn to the 60th parallel while keeping the shapes and surrounding sea shapes intact as much as possible. Shrink anything beyond the 60th parallel until Finland stops looking way bigger than Britain.

    Enlarge the Pacific islands while preserving their shape.

    Shrink the Atlantic and Pacific oceans depending on how you want to position the US.

    The New World, sub-Saharan Africa, and Australia could be shrunk as well.

    AI can do it too, but for a map to be pleasing to look at, it is still better to draw manually.

    If you're volunteering for this task, I'd be appreciative of the help!

    If you're not volunteering that's fine too. But in that case, I will need to wait until my weekly usage limit resets. (It is now at 100%.) Also the usage limit for the upcoming week is already going to be spent in other ways, such as weeding out some problems with the GUI, changing some techs, etc. It's one thing to make a tweak or two to the map, and I hope I'm able to get that West Prussia thing fixed. But what you're describing is usage-intensive, at least if done for the whole map.
