@thedog Sounds great, I am embarrassed that I haven't been able to contribute any code in the 12 months since I expressed interest. but I am here now and want to help! I will try to talk to @lafayette I also have some developer friends nearby that I can probably ask to help me get my machine setup as well. Thanks for the offer for the testing! I would love to be able to say I added one little thing that made the AI better even if it was just for the 1940 scenarios. I can see that it's recommended to make very small changes to the code so it is likely something I will need to build up to.

@jack-sarles @LaFayette > Could not find tools.jar. Please check that C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_301 contains a valid JDK installation.
Hi I ran into some issues with trying to get gradle running.
I have a developer friend who is helping me with with it, have you run into this issue?I think I need to correctly show IDEA the file path to Java

@jack-sarles hi, Panther recommended that I introduce myself here. I was interested in helping out with programming for TripleA

Welcome to the forums!@Myrd

Hi @kwaspek104
Feel free to head over to https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea to have a look at the code. This is a rather old codebase, so there are a lot of things that can be done to improve it. I want to emphasise that we're a volunteer driven project, and we're doing this mostly for fun.
At least for me the reason I'm not as active currently basically boils down to the fact that I haven't got as much free time as I used to have. Life comes at you fast.
Of course I can't speak for everyone at the dev team but usually we're happy to help if you need some pointers in the right direction or some help to understand a certain part of the code. Just ping me (@RoiEXLab),@asvitkineand maybe also@DanVanAttaon GitHub and we'll come back to you.
So feel free to ask any questions you might still have. -
@prastle I'm a long-time (on and off) TripleA user and so thankful for everything you all do to keep this community alive. I'd love to get more involved in whatever capacity I can be helpful (moderator, etc.--I'm not a developer).
One idea I had: TripleA should form a nonprofit and apply for its tax exemption. As a 501(c)(3) public charity, donations to TripleA would be tax deductible, which could open up opportunities for greater fundraising. In addition to the tax deduction available to individuals who donate, there may also be folks who have donation matching programs through their employers. This could really increase the TripleA budget.
I'm a tax lawyer, and I would be happy to discuss and/or assist with that process.

Hello,
I’d like to volunteer as a Lobby Moderator for TripleA. I’ve been an active player and am familiar with the game rules, community expectations, and conduct standards for a very long time now -- since 2009? That, and I've brought on a few players in just on my own.
I can also help out with development but in this area I have limited capacity. While I’m still learning, I’m highly motivated to improve the platform, help with bug testing, and potentially assist in refining or extending gameplay features.
Thanks for your time and for all the work you do!

-

@eyeswideshut
I have invited you to the "Lobby-Moderators"-forum group. Once you accept you'll get a "Moderators" badge and access to special forum-threads.I think @LaFayette will promote you accordingly at the lobby.
-
@panther @beelee @EyesWideShut
I added you as a mod in the lobby. Welcome Ews nice to see you are still around
Also you have to accept @Panther invite to be a mod on the forum. -
heh heh just restrict me from the dev only threads. I didn't do good on those last time
-
@beelee Just noticed you are no longer a Mod? PM me the details LOL
-
@prastle I'll likely become a developer, esp for AI and UI things.
Q1: This link: TripleA Download
downloads: TripleA_2.5.22294_macos.dmg
Which is version 2.5 from 2020.Will that be updated anytime soon?
(or shall I start by building my own?)Q2: the ide-setup (in github: triplea-game) talks about Eclispe/Inteli-J;
Will I be the first/only one using vscode? -
@jackpunt all of those questions need to be answered by @LaFayette
I have not been part of that for many years now. -
Hi @jackpunt
The latest prereleases are found here https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/
I don't remember where the developer thread is. Might just go to git and make a issue and ask the guys there. https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues
I would ping @frigoref @DanVanAtta @BBlazaThey have all been active recently and can clue you in
