Someone has posted an error on GitHub 2.7.15025: TripleAFrame#showHistory:1784 - java.lang.IllegalStateException #14112 game stops at the beginning - playing royals. Two history thinkers ... Try another version like this one https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15256

@galendae you do realize we have logs right? the only person telling people to fuck off was you. i understand you wer upset with what you perceive was trolling of ur game but that doesn’t warrant the abusive stance you took with @wirkey everyone here is a volunteer and must be impartial when it comes to taking actions. the proper course would have been for you to show evidence the other player wasn’t just confused as you assert instead of berating the person u r seeking help from

@johnnycat you might try asking here too https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/27/find-online-players and here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/11/player-locator if you haven't already

@johnnycat heh heh well that is a House Rule from a different game It's not part of this mod

Instructions for Mac users. First decide where you will put your additional copy of TrippleA, ideally with a version specific name. I put mine in the Applications folder under my user home directory like this: /Users/simonhibbs/Applications/TrippleA_27_15256 Download the DMG file from the release in GitHub as above. Go to your downloads directory and find the dmg file, something like this: [image: 1769353101970-848a4f00-3a21-4437-975b-b54ea8f448d5-image.png] Double-click the dmg file and it will open a folder view. This is because dmg files are disk images so it treats it like a drive or folder: [image: 1769353335414-8dac1698-eca2-4859-8fbd-b256f36ff6d7-image.png] Do not run this. Click-hold and drag the TrippleA.app file from the dmg window into the directory you prepared in step 1. You can now run this copy of TripleA by just double-clicking on the .app file in the folder. The first time this will probably be blocked by the OS. If so, open System Settings and go to Privacy & Security, and you should see a warning like this below. Click on Open Anyway, but only do this if you understands what you are doing and where you got the file from. Please use your own discretion. [image: 1769354177315-ba4bf360-535e-42a4-bc2a-5d7ad3c7b325-image.png] NOTE: This separate version of the game will use the same Engine Settings as any other version on your Mac. This means it will use the same downloadedMaps directory and savedGames folder.

@crockett36 Happy New Year! The request new features is locked. I was wondering if we could get a breakdown of unit types per nation and per side? Thanks for you help with FGF!

@brandon-finnigan said in Play by Email Dice Verification Concerns: Any form of: http:// dice. tripleawarclub. org/ is NOT safe and will take you to the sketchy website. It prompts you to download something called SafeWatch, which is definitely malware. I edited that link in a way, that does not make it clickable ...

@trout Ok I’ll start a new thread, get Germany turn 1 going and we’ll see how this one goes . How exciting ! Thx a bunch.

@thedog I think you just need to remove the spaces after and before the curly brackets.

@johnnycat you raise good questions: Is the answer time and programmers? Or just programmers or just time? Or management ? Does it come down to Money? If the answers are: yes, no, maybe, and only on weekends, how could I and others help? Time and programmers is the biggest need. Every bug fix and issue probably takes 2 to 16 hours to fix. This is the biggest gap. Further, TripleA is a larger code base that is very brittle. Making that codebase be easier to work with would help. Money is useful for keeping the servers running and paying the monthly bills. As much as I would love to be payed for TripleA work, paying any type of reasonable developer wage becomes way too much very quickly. Additional management would be helpful. Getting issues sorted, cleanly stated, boiled down to a bare minimum would all be helpful.

@ubernaut I just read that it got shut down... but that's ok

On the roadmap is to change how TripleA represents the state of the game to be a plain text file instead of a binary encoding. Once that is done, it'll be a lot easier to interoperate different TripleA game clients (ie: a mobile version that interoperates with a desktop version). The level of effort to reach that goal is pretty high though. It's been an uphill battle to tackle our current goals... I do agree it would be pretty sweet to be able to play a turn of TripleA during coffee breaks.

@wc_sumpton Yeah, the 2.7 version has a lot of visual issues. I just opened the 2.5 version, it's great.

@sgrom8504 Right Arm Let us know if you need help

@mshanaplayerson Sweet ! Let us know if you need any help

@kindwind It would seem that training against random games would be every inefficient compared to training against the AI that TripleA comes with.TripleA is not Go, random play should be very bad.

@samurai-jd said in A more challenging AI: Re: 1941 Global Command Decision - Official Thread First, for a guy who has played TripleA in the earliest of days and before that all the published versions of the Axis and Allies board games since the 1980s, the GCD map and rules is a true masterpiece. Thank you. I play solo. Can anything be done to improve the skill of the AI? I have tried both Fast and Hard modes. No matter how I favor the AI (through multiple iterations as either Axis or Allies) the AI is finished by the 7th round. In my most current effort, I start with 2700 units for the Axis and 2400 units for the Allies. Especially when the AI plays as the Allies, I can NEVER get the USA to invade Continental Europe no matter how favorable I set the situation. I appreciate your time and the incredible game that you have so elegantly created. Samurai JD A large, complex mod such as 1941 Global Command decision is difficult for the AI to play properly. More units just makes it worse. You would need either to change to mod to help the AI or give the US units near Europe each turn using the editor
