    @kjrnorway most likely if a certain font is requested and not available, then the application will fall-back to using a system default font.

    Thanks again @jtkenny for you and your groups contribution. Hopefully will be added soon with the next release. Any thoughts of encouraging following students to continue your Groups Work ? Maybe the teacher or professor could recommend ? Actually, encouraging All student groups across the Nation and the World as a whole would be ideal but sticking with ISU for now, would be cool to see student interaction continue. Once again, Thanks to you and your Group

    Was updating documentation, found this: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/blob/d3ad17b446fdd319d45424f6a62dfc47d346b4f4/docs/development/initiatives-and-tech-debt/anti-patterns-and-tech-debt.md I think we can probably delete the doc file in favor of what we have here. Adding in from that list: logic code mixed in with UI code

    @aardvarkpepper FWIW, this is all part of an effort to remove components that are not compile-time safe. Meaning you have to run the code before you get to see it break, rather than just having it break at compile time. Previously XML was mapped to game objects via reflection. We have removed that. Network data transfer is done via a customized implementation of Java Serialization that uses Java Reflection sprinkled in. The 'network relay' project attempts to address that. The remaining piece is serialization of save games. This would be the project to address that.

    For context, this is an example of an active project board: https://github.com/orgs/triplea-game/projects/2 We have a 'problem tracker' project board: https://github.com/orgs/triplea-game/projects/3 The board to track project ideas and feature requests would be somewhat similar to the 'problem tracker'

    @beelee said in Most Popular and Best Games to Test Changes with ?: @thedog yea looks good. I was thinking more the complexity of maps that pushes triplea to the limit as opposed to themes. Lets ask @cernel for his opinion Not a strong opinion, but I do believe 270BC Wars was by far the heaviest game of TripleA when it was released. As far as I know, only WW1 and WW2 themed games are any popular. World At War is certainly the most popular TripleA-original game. Amongst the basics, Global Second Edition and Revised (non-LHTR) are by far the most popular ones.

    @All @lafayette @Cernel @RogerCooper Hopefully Last call Tags will look like this, some with a prefix of 3 characters, to force the order to be displayed on the download screen. where =and after is just a guide ***** =Best/Showcase maps (maybe one from each of the eras/genres below, so could be 5-12 maps) **** =Excellent *** =Good ** =Experimental * =Abandoned or unplayable (could be archived in the future) 10-Ancient-Medieval =(pre 1450) 20-Early Modern =(1451-1764) 30-Revolutionary =(1765-1869) 40-WW1 =(1870-1930) 50-WW2-Global =(1931-1945) 52-WW2-Europe =(1931-1945) 54-WW2-Pacific =(1931-1945) 56-WW2-Alternate =(1931-1945) WW2 theme that does not fit into the other 3 WW2 60-Nuclear =(1946-2100) includes near future 70-Future =(2100+) Star Trek, Star Wars, Sci-Fi 80-Fantasy = theme Magic, Mythical Creatures like Dragons 90-Abstract-Alternate = a catch all that does not fit the above list, like Steampunk, War of the Relics . Tag tabs will look like this on screen, ideally with the prefix removed ***** **** *** ** * Ancient-Medieval Early Modern Revolutionary WW1 WW2-Global WW2-Europe WW2-Pacific WW2-Alternate Nuclear Future Fantasy Abstract . @LaFayette I have a Lobby sign in TheDog, so when your ready I will start experimenting/entering the tags.

    @rogercooper said in TripleA development: @thedog said in TripleA development: I find github is not intuitive and not easy to use. I have tried to use it to upload a map and failed and wasted over 3 hours achieving absolutely nothing. I have worked out a system for uploading mods. I will post detailed instructions soon. It is not an intuitive process.. @rogercooper Please could you post detailed instructions for uploading maps?

    @rainova Hard to say. Arguably it will be clutter anywhere we put it on the existing webpages. Somewhere along with the license is maybe a good place. Maybe we could create a 'sponsors' page that would list it? I don't have good ideas/suggestions for this. To backtrack perhaps on previous comments, perhaps only having an endorsement message on the README is sufficient..

  • Also, you get a NoSuchElementException when doing a battle with the UK-aaGun unit:
    c80a9ad1-4141-4dac-a091-41bd276796e3-image.jpeg
    In this battle, I gave the British infantry, tank and aaGun the ability to retreat on the first round of combat.

    When choosing to retreat and selecting a territory, it immediately throws NoSuchElementException and the game crashes. I think that is caused because there is a phase where the aaGun shoots at the air units and that comes after the phase where the British decide to retreat. This results in a phase where the aaGun cannot shoot at the air units. I think it's better to move the decision to retreat for the defender after AA fire, according to the North Africa rules.

    4d5afbaa-b922-4031-9a53-9961e87b81b3-image.jpeg

    In other words, "British withdraw?" should come below "Germans notify AA casualties".

  • Another bug, air units don't retreat along with the other units. They just stay in the territory. I think it is copying the logic for attacking air units. But retreating defending air units requires the same logic as retreating land units.

  • Also, minor request but it would be nice if the decision for the defender to retreat is displayed here if it's made at the start of the combat round, so that it says "British decide to retreat units" as the first entry in this battle history.

  • @iratoric

    I just did a combat with infantry having the ability to defensively retreat in North Africa and it is looking really neat! It is working almost exactly as intended.

    I discovered a minor bug though and that is that units are able to retreat to territories they are not allowed to enter because of relationships. All the territories in capital letters are controlled by the player Mines, which is neutral towards the British. I am able to select such a territory and retreat to it. This should not be possible:

    For the attackers, this is working correctly.
