New Maps Admin capabilities - add Map Attributes & approve/disable maps

@RogerCooper It's not.
-
@Schulz Is this just an xml update or something completely different? If it is something very different, there should be a new mod, rather than an update of the existing mod.
-
@RogerCooper It will be completely different.
-
@Schulz Then give it a new name. Aggression 1914 isn't a bad mod and no one wants to erase it. How about, Aggression 1914: The Empires Strike Back or some other coloned name.
-
@RogerCooper I'm thinking of naming it "Aggression 1914" or "World War I 1914 Advanced" once it's completed.
-
@Schulz Is it based upon the "Axis & Allies 1914" game? If not, you shouldn't use "World War I 1914 Advanced" as TripleA is already using "World War I 1914" for efforts to port the board game and your name would imply a game using the same map with more advanced rules
Sorry about nitpicking on names, but as a MapAdmin, I have to worry about many maps with similar names. There are too many maps starting with "World War". Synonyms such as "The Great War" or the hopeful but inaccurate "The War to End All Wars" should be considered.
I think it is a good idea to include the starting year of the scenario in the name.
-
@RogerCooper The unit roster, combat rules, and the Western European territories will be mostly the same. But it will have more territories and factories.
I like short game names more overall. Too bad—maybe I should have saved the name "Aggression 1914" for this game instead.
-
It might still be a little confusing but you could flip it "1914:Aggresion" ?
-
@beelee Or "Aggression 1914 Expanded" which shows the kinship with the original mod.
-
Naming it "Aggression 1914 Expanded" when it has fewer territories and nations than "Aggression 1914" would look weird, I think.
I want it to be more realistic, with fewer units and rules than the other WWI scenarios as much as possible, so a name that reflects that would be great.
-
-
@Schulz How about "Aggression 1914 Improved"?
-
Its name is my least concern right now, honestly.
Being aesthetically pleasing to look at, having correctly drawn territories, offering endless replayability, being suitable for both PvE and PvP, and being fast-paced are what's actually more important.
Why not remove the current Aggression 1914, since it has none of it, and use its name instead?
-
@Schulz We could always rename the old version to "Aggression 1914 Old"
-
@RogerCooper Yes, I liked it.
-
I noticed that the map I submitted "Larry_Harris_Gencon" is saying the description.html is missing, even though there is a file. I have approved it.
-
@RogerCooper
When I open the file to edit it it saysWe’ve detected the file encoding as windows-1252. When you commit changes we will transcode it to UTF-8.
I wonder if it does not like something in the text. Maybe copy it to say notepad and paste it back in to the description.html ?
-
@TheDog I will check it out.
-
If anyone can make decent relief tiles, I can name the map whatever they want.

It's fun to play the Dragonkin and conquer the world.
