      For Windows, here are the folders where TripleA is stored.

      C:\Program Files\TripleA = Default TripleA install path. In my case it is the latest 2.7 pre-release
      C:\Program Files\TripleA-2.5.22294 = Custom install path for version 2.5.22294. In my case its a constant and does not change.

      C:\Users\USERNAME\triplea\downloadedMaps = shared download path for both/all versions of TripleA

      Could a Mac user please post similar for a Mac?
      Thanks

      @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.

      @djabwana
      You can restrict the movement of units by step and switch them on & off, between steps, not just by turn as in 1888A Steam & Steel

      eg (I have not played your game, so this will probably be wrong)
      turn off all movement for none Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns
      step Move Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns
      turn on all movement for none Battleships/Cruisers, Heavy Artillery, and Railguns

      Search go winter in the xml and apply the principles to different step phases of a turn
      https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4056/1888a-steam-steel-official-thread

      Here is an overview, there are a lot of components, you will not them all

      Winter Search go winter in the xml to see the components that make up how to use terrain effects and a dummy player needs an allied dummy player, eg. winterp define TT & SZ to be affected define a new allied relationship eg winterr allows combat takes over in TT/SZ (oops has no go winter) needs a WinterLand & WinterSea to be shown in the TT & SZ define territoryEffect eg. Winter Triggers to make it happen when you want it. Note -reset- has to redefine the TT/SZ when a TT/SZ changes effect

      Hope this helps

      @thedog any reason it's not finding the map when I try to select the map in game? i downloaded the zip, copied it to the downloaded maps folder, and have tried keeping in both a zip format and unzipping it but when I go to select the map in TripleA it gives me this.![alt text](d5c48cbf-0f77-4af3-a59b-2bc1459b962f-{8BC5EE52-FB8D-4B6B-9A27-74C420FDF07F}.png image url)

      @panther thanks for responding, I tried searching but couldn't find anything before posting. I basically figured out it when typing a response. TripleA version is 2.522294. OS is Windows 11.

      TripleA is exclusively using the Display Scale settings for Monitor 1, but I have Monitor 2 set to my main monitor and that's where TripleA is launched and displayed. So basically, it renders based on Windows 11 display for Monitor 1. I'm not sure if there's a way around that within TripleA.

      Hi @bamaackbar

      Welcome to the site ! 2.5 should have the auto save feature as well.

      When you fire up triplea, hit Saved Game, then autoSave. It will have a large list of games depending on how much you play.
      I've never been able to figure out how it orders them, so I just scroll through and look for the correct date or time.

      Since you like playing Global 40, I suggest trying it on BlackElks UHD map with the Frostion units. UHD World War II Global

      Have Fun gaming šŸ™‚

      @lafayette said in Relationship Problems:

      If you can upload a zip of the map somewhere; I can run it through with a debugger.

      I will keep that in mind. For now, I removed the code and will see if I can work without it.

      @ubernaut

      What I have learned - in almost two decades of assisting people with TripleA - is that problems in many cases are not related to TripleA itself but to a general (not ) understanding of PC, Operating Systems and computer / software procedures.
