    @LaFayette I was being a bit like a devil's advocate, but with good intentions of not wishing to waste peoples time. So your proposal for a Problem Tracker still stands, good.

    Sorry @Panther for throwing a lot of content at ya, this topic is not trivial. Though I have hijacked this thread into a bigger issue of "how do we manage our problem queue"? If we had a clear problem queue, an effective one, the answer to this question would be readily maintained and visible. I've created a new thread to discuss in detail (rather than further hijack this thread more than I already have) : https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3168/triplea-strategy-for-dealing-with-github-issues-problem-reports

    @frigoref another one just popped up https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/10124 It has the latest stable and the image is present. I ran through a round and it works for me. I tried purchasing a submarine for the Americans and placing it and that also worked. Is there a solution for this yet ? Or at least combine these issues into a single issue ? I can start going through them once there is a plan. Maybe there's a better way than manually doing that ? W/e it'd be a good time killing exercise if nothing else lol

    @redrum I'm in agreement. Multiple languages increases the complexity especially with future development. It's been a challenge enough learning this code base to understand what can be changed to avoid major impacts.

    @stohrm A sphere would be very helpful for any scenario that takes the north pole into serious consideration, i.e. any global scenario past WWII IMHO. I agree with you about the tabs. I believe any data details should be in tabe, including diplomacy, game stats, and the battle calculator. Those are currently in popups to be opened from the context menu or by hotkey. Iā€˜d like to unify those UI concepts, i.e. you can popup a tab if you like. And yes, I can imagine more data detail views.

    @rainova There's an option that controls that functionality. I think most games have the option off by default and most don't allow editing the option. But I know a few do. The option is "Choose AA Casualties". You can look at the map xml and see if it is value="true" or editable="true". If you are in edit mode, it should also show the dialog.

    @lafayette, @ssoloff, @trevan, all other developers: What are your thoughts about attracting developers? What made developers join in the past? What made them leave? Would you see making Triple A attractive for developers as an objective? Would you consider this achievable? (In that case I might start a discussion thread.)

    @mirkobruner @Frostion both of these are under the umbrella of rebranding which needs further discussion if any further action would be taken in this direction current consensus here is to replace the current start screen logo with the previous thing (current logo/icon)and discuss any branding changes for future releases.

    @cernel I was tempted to create a 'pull' list of maps that should be pulled. It is easier to instead to remove those maps. We do have categories after all though to mark which maps are still works in progress.

    Fontsize and dpi scaling

    @cernel said in Fontsize and dpi scaling: If it is feasible, the program should always enforce a pixel-per-pixel rendering as default (assuming vectorial graphic will never be supported). Vector graphics require fundamentally different software tools from png and svg isn't natively supported in java swing. Vectorizing the existing maps and artwork would be a lot of work. Then the map handling engine is based on pixel coordinates. Vector graphics would make more sense for interface icons (ex: icons on buttons, menuitems), which TripleA makes very limited use of currently. Icon Fonts would likely be the right solution as they allow scaling and theming.

    With the above said, we can certainly discuss what would be more or less equal to rope in.

    @cernel A single file for game notes could be difficult because then you have to encode the HTML in some way. You no longer could open the notes file in an web browser to get a preview of how it would render. With 2.6, if you want to organize games into folders with generic names, AFAIK you can do that now. You could not previously to 2.6

    @LaFayette Before I was guessing what happened, but here is a little bit more detail; where letters = Territories and numbers = units in those territories. D2 = Territory "D" with 2 units in it. A1, B1, C1, D2, E2, F1, G1 Say I move the 1st unit in E2, it should return to E2, but it actually goes to D2. If I move the 2nd unit in E2, it should return to F1, but it actually goes to G1.

    @hepps I would love for the ratings to be sorted out and refined. There is an open need for Map Admins to go through and do curation of maps, volunteers needed: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/2707/map-curation-rating-maps-categories/1

    I like Darcula - except the politics panel - those colours are a pain, indeed.

    Oh ? I hadn't noticed that with Dracula. I like the slightly larger Font as the latest old one I could barely read šŸ™‚

    I guess it's hardwired into the w/e it is that does it then šŸ™‚

    I just thought Dracula sounded cool so I tried it lol

    @beelee Dracula makes everything slightly more spaced apart compared to Dark. I prefer it over Dark because there everything is smaller and more cramped together šŸ™‚

    I don't like the colors from the politics panel either. They are too bright. Also, the text inside is also barely readable because it is gray. It's probably better if the text is black or white with a black outline or something.

    In some of the themes, when you click on one of the tabs on the first row on the right side when having a game loaded, they suddenly move down to the 2nd row, and the tabs on the second row move to the 1st row. This doesn't happen in "Metal", but it does happen in "Nimbus" and "FlatLaf Dark" (I didn't test all the themes). This is confusing me and I'd prefer if the tabs stay where they are like in "Metal" (and also how it was originally).

    It would also be nice if there were more dark themes. Right now, there are only two and I don't really like either of them. There are much more light themes but those are a no go for me because they are too bright.
