    FWIW, a very sizeable chunk of the memory footprint and memory pressure comes from rendering the minimap. The minimap is rendered by drawing the entire map at full scale and then shrinking it down. The more detailed the territory images, the more memory that this will consume. Physically larger images can allow for greater detail, but not necessarily. Hence a large map where all the territories are a single color will require less memory than a small map where the territory images have lots of detail.

    I am changing battleships to be unbuildable and 1-hit. I thought that this would lead to a lot of battleships being destroyed too quickly, but after a few playthroughs with the AI it seems like I was wrong.

    So I am starting to examine AI suitability for some randomly picked scenarios. Great Lakes War All these scenario are fine for AI Great War The only problem for the AI is the odd blockages for the US. This is an old scenario before events were introduced into TripleA. The large numbers of units and sprawaling map also slow the game. The actual units are straight-forward and the game can be played with Fast AI. Combat movement is before purchase.

    @rogercooper It has some understanding, but not a complete understanding; from what I've been able to tell. It does, at least partly, recognize the movement bonuses units will get in terms of avoiding counterattacks, though I'm not sure it does so fully. In terms of strategic bombing, I'm not sure to what extent it specifically targets harbors/airfields that are relevant right now, vs simply targetting anything in the area that's raidable that it's not already invading. (and of course bombers often have regular combats worth doing as well). It does not seem to preferentially move units on/next to harbors/airfields so as to get the movement bonus. I was trying out Global recently, and some of the moves quite clearly showed the ai not 'getting' the impacts of those bases.

    @lafayette said in 270BC Wars - Official Thread: @Cernel why is there a '+' folder in the map? Seemingly it's making the download size quite a bit larger than it needs to be. The "270bc" map has several such useless items too. The main difference is that I group them externally, leaving inside the "map" folder nothing but what is or may be used by the program. Completely useless items of 270bc (I would keep without the "map" folder): https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/misc/Legend.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/territoryNames/Saria.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/territoryNames/Heraclea.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/RomanRepublic_unit_development.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/archer_hepps.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/archer_with_marker_at_55pt.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/ballista_with_marker_at_55pt.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/hoplite_with_marker_at_55pt.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/legionaire_hepps.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/warelephant_hepps.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/alt/warelephant_hepps_hit.png https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/blob/master/map/units/Neutral/longboat.png Other maps have a lot more useless items than this one.

    You need to name it Chinese instead China for the easiest way to bring China. Then copy the XML and give a different name. Then examine the XML. It is not complicated.

    Oops, I think I spoke in ignorance here. I didn't realize that there are two editions of "Spring 1942". I apparently own the 1st edition. The 2nd edition does indeed appear to be "World War II v5"

    Upkeep is possible to implement, the important one is finding good upkeep/cost ratio and in my experiences with upkeep, it works best with 5%-10%. For example infantry cost is 2 and 0.1 upkeep (5%) would work perfectly. But armour upkeep should be definitely higher than 5% but still should not be higher than 10%. Yes, draw means nobody wins and nobody lose pretty much same with chess. Because of the cumulative aspects of games, the loser side really cannot turn the tide of the war and the fate of the games always seales in the middle of games and just there should have been draw option that gives a good reason the loser side to continue.

    @alkexr I was trying to make upkeep as visible source in the purchase screen in my map like that but couldn't find a way because its not a resource. I am using <option name="createsResourcesList" value="-x:PUs"/> tag to represent upkeep. Wondering is turning into supply like this system the onyl way to make is visible?

    @ff03k64 I don't remember exactly. With the way TripleA runs now, it easy to find which images are missing.

    @JOSEPH-PRINCE border-gore is aptly named lol I think i got em all. Uninstall and reinstall and you should be good to go. I added a notification at game start with version and date as I didn't do a yaml PR. I must of spaced it's own thread so we'll just make this it for the future

    Thanks Dog. In the game I am playing I am using Hard AI but I generally use a combination of both.
    Oh yeah in the stack the Russian AI was holding back in Yekaterinburg? area was not 150 TUV but about 81 units/ 640 TUV
    The AI kept a fair bit there since the start of the game really. With some old double hit 1941 tanks.

    @captain0
    Are you playing with Fast-AI as it is more aggressive than Hard-AI ?

    The US AI does have enough air power to control 2 SZ distance of its West Coast and has enough PU to dominate the sea, but sadly it does not.
    I will look at reinforcing the US west coast, but it will be awhile.

    .

    One other issue I have noticed that there are no UK heavy industry in the Indian ocean/ Red Sea, East of Africa.
    Whilst I respect this is quite accurate historically.

    Agreed, it is not going to change. You could replace the South Africa Industry-Med with a Industry-Hvy if you wish.

    The US may need a hand Dog as a lot of the ships exit through Panama rapidly
    Perhaps a small random pop up of PT boats or something-like Germany with the subs..
    I was also wondering what the hell was going on when the AI had 14 destroyers in a zone off the West coast lol.

    Just regarding the AI hogging counter strike units at factory areas away from the battlefield to launch a counterstrike.

    'It is good but I am playing the AI at present as axis player v allies.
    The Germans and Italians are holding Stalingrad and a force is moving down to Baku.
    Interestingly the AI has about 100? units TUV 160 ready for a counter as soon as I advance past Stalingrad.
    Maybe it has something else planned but it has more than enough units to heavily influence battles yet stays 4 zones away for the counter

    One other issue I have noticed that there are no UK heavy industry in the Indian ocean/ Red Sea, East of Africa.
    Whilst I respect this is quite accurate historically. It does sort of hog tie the British if the Italian fleet gets on top and can only be confronted by destroyers etc in the East Med.
    Sort of kamikaze.
    Unless the AI/ player even, transits around South Africa and back up to the Med via East Africa.
    I doubt that is something that the AI would approach and even as player Britain it is tough.
    Could it be looked at or Cruisers possibly being allowed to be built at medium factories to compensate and give a bit of firepower.

    Cheers
