@thedog I believe this is @simon33 s mod. Maybe he knows who it is

@leemorrison just hit ya up in chat. Need to activat 2.5 version and then go to lobby

See https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3061/marti-issues/ and https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3157/google-mail-with-triplea-issues-was-new-play-by-forum-game So these are known problems. The developers are aware that PBEM needs a complete overhaul. But - as always - this is not expected to happen anytime soon. Time is restricted and priorities might be different.

@thedog Ok. Yes, Sea Unit option was already checked. So it seems only a strategical choice of IA. I've forced Harad sea attack manually for a couple of turns against the Good (me) :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Hi @paolo-carrera If you're trying to access the lobby, you can login anonymously until this is resolved.

@roiex Thank you. It looks like it has been resolved in the meantime.

@thedog yes thank you. I had it for my one time player. So I tried it. I just didn't think it'd be that easy

@rogercooper said in Triggered Victory on Specific Turn: We should update Pact of Steel 2 to reflect that notifications.properties is mandatory. <!-- Support Attachments --> number values: how many units to be supportedhow much support can be given. All support can be given to a single unit, or spread too multiple units depending on bonusType. There are many other mistakes in the PoS2. Cheers...

@kindwind Efforts You seem to have in mind using a neural net style AI to play TripleA. I suspect that this we actually be quite difficult given the huge number of possible board positions.You might be better off using a very small mod like Minimap even without a large record of games to train it. TripleA's own AI can be used for training.

@lafayette thank you for your help. Its very much appreciated.

@ubernaut yeah, redoing MARTI would potentially save us $10/month on costs as well. I think redoing the bots with 'network relay' might be higher up on the list. That will save a ton of code, create an effective infinite number of bots, and save us maybe like $25/month. The 'network relay' will be an update where the bots will just be responsible for only forwarding network packets. Today, a bot is basically an entire player but is made somewhat invisible. We are bounded by the amount of RAM on a host for how many bots we can host. If bots are just sending network packets, they'll take up very little RAM. We'll only be bounded by network traffic. We could theoretically run dozens of bots per host instead just 3 to 5. This should cut our bot host count down from the current 6 or 8 today to maybe 2. I think there might be some quick wins with the server's as well. AT least for me, I might be inclined to do a quick ELO system before redoing MARTI.

@rogercooper Not yet. I'm thinking to bump the version number to '2.8' when all of these updates are ready. The '2.8' release announcement will be when it is ready. These backend changes are most of what we are waiting for.

@beelee I will give it a shot seeing if I can finally figure out how to post screenshots. If so, I can complete the game report

@beelee great help, thanks again

@beelee thanks for this hint too. I'll try both of them, but one at the time.

@rogercooper Thanks for the encouragement! I was able to mod it this AM. Appreciate it
