    @samurai-jd said in A more challenging AI: Re: 1941 Global Command Decision - Official Thread First, for a guy who has played TripleA in the earliest of days and before that all the published versions of the Axis and Allies board games since the 1980s, the GCD map and rules is a true masterpiece. Thank you. I play solo. Can anything be done to improve the skill of the AI? I have tried both Fast and Hard modes. No matter how I favor the AI (through multiple iterations as either Axis or Allies) the AI is finished by the 7th round. In my most current effort, I start with 2700 units for the Axis and 2400 units for the Allies. Especially when the AI plays as the Allies, I can NEVER get the USA to invade Continental Europe no matter how favorable I set the situation. I appreciate your time and the incredible game that you have so elegantly created. Samurai JD A large, complex mod such as 1941 Global Command decision is difficult for the AI to play properly. More units just makes it worse. You would need either to change to mod to help the AI or give the US units near Europe each turn using the editor

    @madvitale I'm sorry that you are having troubles. I personally do not use Notepad, it's okay for small quick edits, I use Notepad++. I'll include a zip file with the changes. World_At_War.zip Special Note "Transport Casualties Restricted" value must stay false in the xml as Transports and B.Transports have a defensive value. The value can be changed in the 'Map Options' (lowest button on the left panel). Cheers...

    @ted-self Im glad you like the map and it has got you all excited even at your age. It was exasperating and fun to design the map. If you want another steep learning curve map that will challenge your grey cells then try 1941 Global Command Decision https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3326/1941-global-command-decision-official-thread

    @beelee The map loads for me, but I am not going to say how well it works. It is an overly complicated mod.

    Capture Units on Entering Territory Is usually not set as True, so is usually false. I have not played the map, but I think it should be false.

    @rogercooper I couldn't find the repo in triplea-maps. So can he just update his repo and then do a PR with the new version number in the yaml ? His repo doesn't need to be part of triplea-maps ? Anyway, it's merged. @thehobbesian this is what you need to change in the yaml. The pencil icon will allow you to edit it. I believe anyone can but not 100% certain on that. [image: 1759589371964-screenshot-from-2025-10-04-09-45-38.png] [image: 1759589881597-screenshot-from-2025-10-04-09-57-27.png] You can see Roger did it here [image: 1759589494806-screenshot-from-2025-10-04-09-50-48.png] Edit Also, as Roger stated, you can just redownload the map once the repo has been updated. The yaml just lets people know there is a new version. Edit 2 @thehobbesian I DL'd it but don't know if it's the new version or not. There's really no easy way to tell. I add a notification at game start saying what version and the date it was first uploaded. I also document it in the changelog in the Game notes. Edit 3 OK it looks like the latest. This is your last commit and here it is in the Game Notes [image: 1759591386917-screenshot-from-2025-10-04-10-22-02.png] [image: 1759591399240-screenshot-from-2025-10-04-10-21-49.png]

    @wc_sumpton I found the problem. My OCD wants things in alphabetic order and in doing that I accidentally moved the ending </technology> caveat after the French player's code. Thus only the Americans, ANZAC, British, Chinese and French were actually recognized. The British get theirs from the UK_Pacific's choice and the Chinese don't have any (at this time). So, the rest all got skipped. I appreciate the help. I also put the code back in player turn order, but added "Player 01 - ", 02 etc. before the Faction heading comments. My OCD is thereby satisfied.

    @djabwana You can restrict the movement of units by step and switch them on & off, between steps, not just by turn as in 1888A Steam & Steel eg (I have not played your game, so this will probably be wrong) turn off all movement for none Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns step Move Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns turn on all movement for none Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns Search go winter in the xml and apply the principles to different step phases of a turn https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4056/1888a-steam-steel-official-thread Here is an overview, there are a lot of components, you will not them all Winter Search go winter in the xml to see the components that make up how to use terrain effects and a dummy player needs an allied dummy player, eg. winterp define TT & SZ to be affected define a new allied relationship eg winterr allows combat takes over in TT/SZ (oops has no go winter) needs a WinterLand & WinterSea to be shown in the TT & SZ define territoryEffect eg. Winter Triggers to make it happen when you want it. Note -reset- has to redefine the TT/SZ when a TT/SZ changes effect Hope this helps

    When I upload to Google Drive, I zip the whole file set and put a serialised version number as part of the filename. (rising in units of 5) before uploading.
    Eg. war_plan_red_orange-15.zip
    Then there is no problem of filenames changing.

    Try this
    https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4184/how-to-share-a-map-zip-using-google-drive

    Dont leave the zip in the downloads folder as when TripleA runs it will unzip and might over write any changes you have done.

    @wc_sumpton THANK YOU. Checked for that vary thing, but stepped through using the Linux ImageViewer and it skips bad files. Strange it existed because the imageTiler was run a few times after first encounter with the error. I'll check the rest.

    Observer error be gone. Uploaded a new neanderthal.zip. Wrapping display conflict still exists. Each loop in a polygons.txt territory definition should get its own display bounding box to determine if it is in the view.

    I'm going to concentrate on the game development. Once done, I'll clean up the scripts for public consumption.

    @TheDog Thanks much! I did try file associating .properties files with Notepad++ before, but it's still always uploading the file as a text file instead of a properties file... any other ideas? Google is being no help.
