@Hepps i still have the original psd for the icon i could maybe make a cool intro for it too, let me know if you want to collaborate.

@Hepps Well given that the ordering is better defined now after I made some changes a while back, you should be able to ensure the locations of at least certain types of units like infrastructure. Reference: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/681/group-and-sort-units-onto-placements-logically

@redrum right on thank you

@redrum Well it's working now. Setting it to "0" was one of the first things I tired. I thought "this should be easy". : ) Anyway I obviously had something else off. At least it made me research the new AA support : ) Thanks again guys

@Enigma It is good to tell what version of TripleA you are using, upon reporting a problem. Moving this to Bug Reports.

@beelee You're mostly right. While on Windows Java 11 should work without any problems (at least using the latest pre-release, not sure about the latest stable). However on Debian based system there seems to be an issue that causes the game to crash: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/4372 Rolling back to java 1.8 should fix the issue for now. DanVanAtta created this issue in triplea-game/triplea open Debian Bug: NPE on startup with OpenJFX 11 #4372

@RogerCooper The victory value needs to be a key for the notifications.properties file not the actual string you want to display. Here is the POS2 XML: victory values: the string message from notifications.properties to be displayed if the condition is true. victory can be used to play sounds as well. victory will use victory value + "_sounds" as the key in notifications.properties file, and then will use "defeat_" or "victory_" + the notifications.properties value as the new key to look for in the sounds.properties file.

@Tayleron That's correct. Its essentially just how LL works for battles where it adds up all the unit strength and only rolls for the remainder. For tech, you can only get 1 tech per turn so once you have 6 tech tokens then you automatically will get a tech.

@ubernaut you'll figure it out As DanVanatta said the other day, you can just click on the SZ and send everything (unless there's planes you don't want to) into the zone you wanna go. Otherwise, one tranny at a time as redrum suggests, is a good idea. I would attack or ncm one country at a time, which, I think, is what redrum was saying : )

@LaFayette thanks all! a little clunky but I think I have the hang of it now.

Continuing the tradition, here is a new "what to do if the lobby is down" thread: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/1242/what-to-do-if-the-lobby-is-down FWIW, The next release that will come out in perhaps a few months or so will help make this easier with a 'report to TripleA' button that will be available when any error occurs. So in the future when the lobby is dead, you'll be able to report from in-game after the game fails to connect.
