      2 things. 1) the map-connections error
      2) Is there I way to skip the "production" step?
      (there is no unit production in my map)
      Thanks!

        @gabegolfer You can have maps without production. I am guessing that you have productionFrontier referencing a non-existent unit. Post the xml.

          @gabegolfer Looks like there are multiple things causing errors.

              But what is with the "The content of element type "map" must match "((grid|territory)+,connection*,remove-connection*)"."?

                @gabegolfer I am wondering whether the "Neutral" player is causing some problems. "Neutral" has specific meaning in TripleA, you should try renaming it "Unaligned" or something.

                    Ok, so I'm systematically ironing out the errors, all except for the ((grid|territory)+,connection*,remove-connection*)". I changed the "Neutral" to "Wild_Dragons" but the error remained.

                      @gabegolfer I think this is a bad character in this section:

                              <territory name="sea273"/> water="true"/>
        <territory name="sea 258"/> water="true"/>
        <territory name="sea 267"/> water="true"/>
        <territory name="sea 284"/> water="true"/>
        <territory name="sea 324"/> water="true"/>

                      My xml copy editor program flagged column 9 on the line with sea 258 but I don't see the issue. You should find the game.dtd file and use it to validate. For information on game.dtd see forum post

                        Sorry, this is my first map, I'm not quite sure what you mean my "use game.dtd file to validate" I opened the GitHub file but I wasn't sure where to go from there.

                          @RogerCooper Look at Sea273 and then all the next lines... the names have spaces between the word and the number...

                          So depending on whether that is continued on in the rest of the XML.... the spaces... then these may be the cause of your issues.

                            @gabegolfer I renamed the file game.txt, so I can upload it. game.txt . Rename to game.dtd

                            Download xml copy editor (or some similar program) to use it.

                                OK, thanks to you guys and all your help I think the XML works now. But now I get a "Map name property not set on game" message after I load the map and try to play? Doesn't this have to do with the properties file?

                                  That is not the problem. You need to have code like this:

                                  <!-- Map Name: also used for map utils when asked (MUST exactly match the folder or zip name of your map (do not include the .zip of course). May point to another map folder if you are making a mod of that map) -->
    <property name="mapName" value="the_pact_of_steel" editable="false">
      <string/>
    </property>

                                  Check existing XML to see how it used.

                                    Ok that worked perfectly, but now all I get is an annoying "JAVA heap space" error. If you know how to adjust the memory or whatever the heap space is that would be awesome! Thanks again!

                                      @gabegolfer I can't help you with JAVA heap space other to suggest to make sure you have an up to date version of Java.

                                        I think u gotta do something to "Vmotions" boost it from 2 to 4. Unfortunately I don't remember where it is. You could ask @RoiEX or @Panther

                                          @gabegolfer Is this map enormous? You actually get that right upon starting without any AI involved?
