          That's right. You wanted a post Pearl Early 42 start date ? That's why we changed all the TTys from G 40 start.

          Got Paris done wapita lol

            Yes, it's quite easy to change the starting setup, so multiple start dates would be no problem.

            By the way here's the French xml, be careful as there are no unit placement.

              oh yea I changed Prinsk to Pinsk. I've never heard of either one but Pinsk it is 🙂

                Nice! Still no units?

                Artillery supports infantry and mech. Armour and fighter support tac. Tac, as flying artillery, should support mech not armour. Then add tec plus mech support armour.

                Cheers...

                  Working on placements right now. Here's latest look

                  Edit
                  Yea that'd be good for a map option. My impression is Elk wants to keep it as similar to G 40 play so people will be familiar with it from the get go. Just bigger map.

                  Can add other stuff as options and mods as it goes on.

                            Trying to be helpful here. Are you editing pu_place by hand, or are you using 'Decoration Placer' in the map tools?

                            Cheers...

                              I'm doing it by hand for adjustments . It started out as however. Idk, I think it uses centers. Don't want it placing over the names, so I tweak when needed or if I want to squeeze in another place.

                              Edit
                              Hmm ... I don't remember using the Decoration placer before. Maybe I can move them with it ? Idk they're already there and would probably need to be tweaked anyway.

                              I'll check it out to see how it works anyway 🙂

                                Although the map making tools are old, one the basic are done, the map can be loaded to view. Just save pu_place, load game, make adjustments, reload game, etc...

                                It maybe easier to commit out unitInitialize, to get a clean view.

                                Just trying to be helpful.

                                Cheers...

                                  Hmm ... triplea has froze up a half dozen times today. I wonder if Mega is too mega ?

                                  @Black_Elk @wc_sumpton you guys have that problem ? Might just be machine/provider specific to me Idk 🙂

                                      Elk said Mega is a bit too Mega at times too. Can't run multiple triplea at same time. Doesn't always do it.

                                      I wonder if an AI is trying to take it over ?

                                        No problems here. Laptop is about 10 years old, but it does have 32mg memory/1tb ssd/win10 so I don't have many freezes. Sorry.

                                            Hmm ... I tried adding wc's French xml to the games folder. I renamed it by adding 1939 to the end. Changed mapName as well and it's not showing up.

                                            I copied the html notes and changed their name too. Must be missing a step. Anyone know where I'm screwing up ?
