@johnnycat I think big gambles are what you live for as best I can tell when it comes to your strategies in this game 🙂

@beelee You are correct. Scrambling the Luftflotten was the plan. I have no idea how to pronounce some of these Nazi words. Tough luck with your sub getting good dice to sink the Bismarck. I guess I wouldn't change my 91 attack but losing Luftwaffe is never good news for the Reich

@beelee Done!

@RogerCooper

The second method is to take control of another players units.

To let Germany take control of the 4 units in Bulgaria and the one unit in Varna.
In the unitAttachment for infantry add <option name="canBeCapturedOnEnteringBy" value="Germans"/>.
In the territoryAttachment for Bulgaria and Varna add <option name="captureUnitOnEnteringBy" value="Germans"/>.
In the playerAttachment for Neutral_Player add <option name="captureUnitOnEnteringBy" value="Germans"/>.
And set <property name="Capture Units On Entering Territory" value="true"/>.
Then this <option name="changeOwnership" value="Bulgaria:any:Germans:true"/> in a trigger, the 'when' can be any step.
After Germany's noncombat move.

The 4 units changed, but not factory or the Territory and because Germany moved into Varna during noncombat the unit and territory does not change.
Adding <option name="canTakeOverOwnedTerritory" value="true"/> to the relationshipTypeAttachment between Germany and Neutral_Player to get this.

Control of the units happens on the 'true' setting of 'changeOwnership' and changes at the 'when'.

@rogercooper said in Change maxBuiltPerPlayer by a trigger:

@victoryfirst Could this be used to change any value on an unit attachment? Potentially very useful.

For example, in Axis & Allies: Pacific, Commonwealth and American units have a defense strength of one on the first turn. They could start 1 and then be upgraded to their regular values at the end of the Japanese turn.

Yes, definitely yes. Just tried this in my improved module for Axis and Allies D-Day.

The module was already finished for some time but I thought it would be a good idea to add some various game options to help balance the game. The_Good_Captain made a series on A&A D-Day where he recommended some balancing changes. There was one he didn't mention in his video but did consider and that was: "Allied Bombers attack at 4 instead of 3". The game is too pro-German and having this as an optional rule helps out the Allies.

<attachment name="BombersAttackAt4" attachTo="USA-UK" javaClass="RulesAttachment" type="player"> <option name="gameProperty" value="Allied Bombers Attack At 4"/> </attachment> <attachment name="triggerAttachmentBombersAttackAt4" attachTo="USA-UK" javaClass="TriggerAttachment" type="player"> <option name="conditions" value="BombersAttackAt4"/> <option name="unitType" value="UKbomber:USAbomber"/> <option name="unitAttachmentName" value="UnitAttachment" count="unitAttachment"/> <option name="unitProperty" value="attack" count="4"/> <option name="uses" value="1"/> <option name="when" value="before:ParaSurpriseBattle"/> </attachment>

There you have it! Very useful indeed.

@gregorek

Do rule changes disturb order in the purchase menu? (ie. remove then add to end, which changes location.) -

Yes, remove a purchase shuffles the purchases after the remove and an adds to the end.

You would have to rewrite the whole of the production list every time you did an upgrade to keep the locations constant.

.
Currently there is no function to test a resource.

.
Personally I would remove the TIMER and see if the game plays well enough without it.

Good, Bad, Ugly?

I would let the players decide. I will be one of them 😁

.
As @wc_sumpton suggested create a Jurassic - Official Thread under 'Maps & Mods, ask your questions under it and show case your progress. Keep the first post to advertise the mod.

@rogercooper Nice, thanks.

@rogercooper said in Problem with foreach:

The variable system was well coded..

yea redrum did that. He was working on TWW and realized he needed about 1500 triggers so said F it and wrote the code.

But you probably already knew that 🙂

Other opponents ?

@lafayette I added a PR to add AGENTS.md files to the repo: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/14215

djensen47 created this issue in triplea-game/triplea open Add comprehensive AGENTS.md documentation across the project #14215

@GREGOREK

In my copy of Jurassic, I noticed that there are no technologies. By adding an empty technology section:

<technology> </technology>

The Technologies Tab/Window can be removed.

I guess you are talking about registering for lobby-play? Or for the dice server?
Sorry, there is nothing I can do to register an email-address for you.

The trick is not to use gmail in the TripleA software at all (except for posting to the forum in PBF).
You need to use an email-address of a provider that does not automatically block mails from special senders (such as TripleA-servers obviously).

Try for example proton or gmx.

Good luck!
