@frostion Yes this happens on my system as well... the tooltip shows through on my screen even though a different application is in the foreground. I am on .11131

@mario-rafael-herrera-vaca It looks like your TripleA tries to load an old and/or incompatible map. When the maps were updated the wrong spelling "attatchment" had been corrected to the correct "attachment". Now maps including "attatchment" in their XML cause errors.

@prastle That's working, thanks for the link.

@scousemart The initial state of this checkbox has apparently been broken since it was first introduced in 2012 (however, as you observed, PBF works fine). A fix has been submitted in https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/3774 .

@Lsg123 that message is saying that TripleA cannot connect to internet. You should not be able to connect to lobby, and map downloads etc.. would not work. I opened this ticket to improve the messaging there so it's more clear, this message is meant to be helpful so you don't get a "ConnectionUnavailableException" when you actually try to connect to lobby or download maps: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/3608

@panther @RoiEX Great stuff. :smiling_face:

@comr What Engine version are you running on? PS I tested some games you mentioned and the paratroopers and Air transports are working as intended.

@comr said in AI ignores destructible factories: Hi, Is there any trick known to force AI to consider buying certain resources or units? For example units that are producing resources? I'm playing with Dragon War official and my little conversion of it (units eat and need to be paid every turn, towns are producing resources; food, PU's, metal, wood). AI just doesn't care, so I'm trying to force it to buy at last from time to time village or town. I'm considering make some "trick units", so AI can think "it's a good idea!" and buy something as something different. For example, super cheap unit, super defending or super attacking unit (based on simple stats), but in fact being something different? Let's say AI buys free unit, but can place it only on high value place and it's in fact village or factory? All the best, ComR You could just use triggers to give the AI-played nations the needed resources automatically. It is a bit much to expect that the AI be able to handle arbitrary sets if resources.Or rather than using 'trick' units give resource creation to units that the AI already has like factories.

@comr loading trprts 1 at time works best. You can also load all of your 1 trprt only units, tanks and stuff, then all the inf. Doesn't always work but usually a little faster

@rogercooper No idea. I've never heard of or played the map. But pretty much has to be an XML problem unless you are seeing repair issues on other maps.

@redrum I'm sorry to say that the problem doesn't seem to be resolved. I saved the game at the beginning of South Africa's turn & started from there. South Africa's turn was computer operated. I then took my turn again & the same error message popped up that I needed to finish a battle first which I didn't even try to do this time. Just thought that you would like to know.

@roiex Clearly I am at the low end of the bell curve. Awesome thanks.

@eveningtsar Glad to hear that. If you have any other issues or questions just let me know.

@RmcDud I think I know how to fix your issue (although I don't know what might've caused it): Could you post the content of your /etc/hosts file (or execute cat /etc/hosts in the terminal depending on what you prefer) and post the content here? Adding or modifying a single line in this file could already fix your issue.

Want to thank you both for responding - got it working by reverting Java to previous version.

Much appreciated. I will try another setting.

This is the alpha UI I'm currently working on, it does currently not work. You should be able to go into the settings and disable the "use experimental UI" checkbox and restart triplea to get to the normal screen.

@cernel Do you have any idea for it?

@otthawk1 There is lot of stuff to confuse the AI in that scenario, especially the system of upgrading recruits.
