Fwiw, I can't get it to work on TV either. Probably because my TV is smarter than me Can you go step by step and show us where you get stuck ?

    @wc_sumpton said in Restricting unit builds: <property name="Unit Placement Restrictions" value="true" editable="false"> <boolean/> </property> That was it. Thank you for the help.

    Separate activateTrigger's solved it. Set up an always false condition, so the property modifiers dont launch independently. Issue closed. FYI, Made new units and recolored with drop shadows. Testing game play and balance. Hope to post a beta for others to kick around in a couple weeks. Thanks for all the help.

    @futsal Given the complexity of the game, the AI is actually reasonable. It is generally better than in other wargames. The TripleA is superior to the AI for Axis & Allies Online, which only plays one version of the game. The type of AI algorithm used in Chess (Alpha-Beta) would not work in TripleA because of the vast number of legal moves and the random elements. There are some people working on using neural net AI's like Alpha Zero but I have not seen any results yet. I have doubts about their effectiveness. I do expect future improvements in the AI, but they are likely to be piecemeal resolutions of specific issues . To have fun with the AI, I suggest playing only one country, so you need to deal with AI allies. Giving handicaps to your opponents can be useful as well.

    @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> [image: 87fac4a0-a27c-4711-9aa7-d84957427a36-image.png] 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.
