@TheDog Hi Dog I'm guessing you're referring to the Expansion mod me and the guys play "Global 40 Expansion UHD Boxes". I would just give it a complexity level of 1 higher than whatever the Global 40 OOB game has. Edit I guess something like this is what you're suggesting ? Global 40 Expansion UHD Boxes It uses the UHD Mega Map based off of the Bung,Veqryn "World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition" Map. This is a House Rule Mod for "World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition". It was Created by The Captain and Company

I'll check what was updated. Well there was quite a bit. Interesting to see how it plays out That AB in Egypt is kid of annoying

@Cernel truly random numbers are actually something computers cant do there’s actually a whole entire market for random number generators

@crockett36 Good Morning. I will look in a bit. Here's a detailed look at LMs https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/36998/global-1940-and-1943-expansion-for-use-with-triplea/251?page=11 Edit Oh you meant NMs. https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/assets/uploads/files/1717400187249-3.g40-naval-mines.pdf so you have to handroll for those. 6 NMs and they hit at 2 or less. Can use in game dice roller and post a screenshot of results or use dicebot at the other site. If you decide to attack anyway, I'll take the Escrt first

@lafayette and other Devs Been doing some testing with 2.7.15557 https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15557 Although not the latest, it has been very stable. Anecdotally it appears to be faster than 2.7.15256 my other test version for some time. TripleA memory footprint has shrunk from 4.5GB when playing 1941 Global Command Decision to under 2.3GB, a seriously a massive change, that probably accounts for the perceived speed increase. Also I don't have to modify TripleA.vmoptions to give me extra memory to make play faster, every time I download a newer version of TripleA. Too many smiley faces for one post, so here's a THANKS for all the work !!!

@JohnnyCat sorry for the delay. ill get to it soon.

@Alexander ok. enjoy your vacation.

@ 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. [image: 1778503133911-screenshot-from-2026-05-11-07-24-02.png] place them in Germany Edit Note the Waffen4 consumes a regular Inf same as a Waffen Inf [image: 1778503187761-screenshot-from-2026-05-11-07-39-34.png] then after Place phase, Waffen Inf4 turns into a regular Waffen Inf. [image: 1778503266486-screenshot-from-2026-05-11-07-40-51.png] 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

@LaFayette said: i'm able to repro the black test I'm sure you're already aware of this but just in case as soon as I click on anything after it goes black, even an empty space, the black goes away. Idk how to communicate that to people. I guess they'll probably just figure it out on their own. It'd be nice if it didn't happen at all but most likely lower on the priority todo list.

@beelee said: Those Tommy Paras were Badass lol They did an outstanding job indeed! And they died for a better reason.

@rogercooper The newer TripleA versions have a lot of syntax checking, so I would upgrade to the latest version and let it do its stuff. It has found at least two errors in my maps.

@Panzerstahl-Helm-0 Thanks mate! But I am starting to power down after packing all evening. I'll roll the dice when I'm back in a couple of weeks, enjoy the "temporary peace" lol Yes, I have been traumatized by Italy 'can-opening' in the OOB rules - now this takeover situation is even more crazy to watch out for! Will do, thanks again. I look forward to it!

@beelee said: The old one still be available for those that like it I assume ? Probably not. This is a completely different library. Substance has served us well, but has bugs, and our current version is really old and difficult to upgrade. I'm leaning somewhat strongly to go with this new L&F library. Namely because the upgrade path is already done, with Substance (our old L&F), we'd have to do some work/efforts to upgrade.

@TheDog said: With 300+ maps and a solution that requires no xml changes to work, could be using a pre Move Delegate centering, maybe? Ahh, now I understand your question. Before I answer let's look at what is being asked. Using "World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition" with the default settings, technology is 'off' in 2.5.22294 the map does not center, which is the same as 2.7.15494. So, what we have now is the same as how TripleA has always function. Adding centering to the MovePhase would cause TripleA to reorientate during the players turn, which could be very confusing. If the centering which is in 2.7.15025 cannot be duplicated, then IMO, centering should be left to map makers as an XML hack, and not added to a 'phase'. Cheers...
