so sounds good then I guess. Right now all the U-boats 3 and above get the bonus. So if I use the latest pre, I will need to update the xml as you stated on the other thread.

I'm still not 100% certain what the benefit is. Does this make supportAttachment better ?

The Wolfpack unit is a token unit and has to be removed/replaced. Now the supportAttachment does this automatically. As I said, there is no battle round check, but this is a big step.

Being able to 'group' supports is something new and needs further testing. Right now, its late so I'm going to bed.

@ All

I think I just figured out how not to overbuy the Waffen Units that change. Early stages yet but seems as if it'll work.

Here is an example.

One is only allowed 6 Waffen Inf and 4 Oberst. The Oberst consumes the Inf, so I had to make a maxBuilt of 10 to allow for the 4 Oberst.

This made it to where one could unintentionally overbuy the ss Inf. You have to scan the map and count them manually. Easy to make a mistake.

What I have done, is to limit Waffen Inf to a max purchase of 6 and add a new unit "waffen_infantry4" which has a max purchase of 4.

It behaves the same as a Waffen Inf except an Oberst can not consume it. Here is what happens.

There is 1 Waffen Inf in Germany, if you try to buy 6, triplea won't let you. Can only buy 5. So we buy 5 Waffen Inf 1 Oberst and 1 Waffen Inf4.

place them in Germany

Edit
Note the Waffen4 consumes a regular Inf same as a Waffen Inf

then after Place phase, Waffen Inf4 turns into a regular Waffen Inf.

Anyway, I think this should work. I still have to allow for multiple Oberst and Waffen4's but that shouldn't be a problem.

I've thought that before though lol

Edit
Yea looks as if it's gonna be a success story I'll work my way through the rest of these ss bastards and then start on the Atomic Bomb

@panzerstahl-helm-0 @trout @alexander @crockett36 @victoryfirst and everyone else, Panther has brought to my attention that the in game dice roller is recorded in your email dice when rolling in pbem or pbf.

Right Arm Panther !

so while not as easy to access as just looking in History, it does create a record

I asked Dan about a Feature request to make it show up in History but sadly, he said it'd be fairly labor intensive, so it's low on the current priority list.

At any rate, I think taking a screenshot works fine for showing the results as is. Just a heads up is all. I never check the dice rolls so it never occurred to me to check lol

I do look at the battles in History and if it's close or lopsided, will go through the rolls just to see how it played out.

Got A-Bomb sorted. Just need to get the right turn sequences and get the yanks up to speed with jerry.

They will auto place now but still need to fight in edit.

I used Moscow for testing purposes. They go right after Germany and I like the visual results.

I updated to 2.581 yesterday. It's a WIP but I didn't want to lose all the work if the machine should fry again.

Anyway, I checked the Lobby and the latest version is there

I'll work on it some more today. I should be close to the final update. A-Bomb is done For now.

I currently have Moscow London and EUSA as German Targets and Tokyo Berlin and W GER as American. We can add more later. You can bomb anywhere but the Mushroom clouds won't show up unless in the above and only 1 per turn and 3 total.

That should be enough to decide the game

What does that one do ?

From my understanding this setting restricted the taking of 0 attack/0 defense units as fodder during combat, and allows these units to be auto-destroyed if there are no accompanying units.

Didn't want to hijack Ramon's thread what is the downside, if any, from having this enabled ? Turns out it wasn't on.

"Transport Casualties Restricted"

"Transport Casualties Restricted"

It can throw errors if units that do transport, have "transportCapacity" greater then 0, have attack or defense values greater then 0. These units will need "isCombatTransport" set.

Update to Version 2.6

@panzerstahl-helm-0 @trout @alexander

You guys need to update before starting Tourney play. Made a couple minor clarifications too. Thought there was some other stuff but it was low level. Once Victory fixes the Hvy Bmbrs you will need to upgrade to latest triplea engine version. Just overwrite your current.

[beelee]

Update to Version 2.61

@trout @panzerstahl-helm-0 @alexander here's Kamikaze fix. I hate or dislike doing these back to back but since it's Tourney time lol

Guess I better make a new Tourney save

Wiking-Con World Tournament Qualifier 2027 Triplea Game Start Take 2.tsvg

Edit
@panzerstahl-helm-0 @trout @alexander-the-great

@victoryfirst has finished fixing the Hvy Bmbrs DL latest triplea and you're good to go. Won't affect any of your saves and will work in your saves as well.

No need to keep your old one.

@thedog

I followed your advice on Ramon's Trenches thread for a negative supportAttachment but it's not working. Has no effect.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

[TheDog]

@beelee
Code, it looks OK, do you have another supportAttachmentABomb in the xml ?

[beelee]

@TheDog

No that's the only one. Some units are player specific and some are the same for both sides. Idk if that's messing it up. I guess I could remove them and try one unit at a time.

Edit
Hmm ... maybe because ABomb has no attack value or it's zero. I'll try and give it attack 1 and see what happens

Edit 2
That didn't work either

@wc_sumpton any ideas brother ?

I shoulda practiced on Moscow lol

[TheDog]

@beelee
check your javaclass is
javaClass="UnitSupportAttachment"

[wc_sumpton]

@beelee

Is the " ABomb" attacking or defending? 'side' is which side the 'attachTo' unit is on. If 'attachTo' is attacking side=offense. Defending side=defense.

Cheers...

[beelee]

@wc_sumpton

heh heh I'll give it a go

I thought defense since the defenders should be affected by the attacker the ABomb But will try as I didn't think to

Edit
and wc comes through with the obvious solution lol

The 2 hitters are at 1 now. Just a testing stage but I hate being stupid lol

Thanks Brother
