Thanks to Scouse for asking the question and RoiEX for answering The culprit was Avast anti virus

@scousemart Thanks for confirming the resolution. It's unfortunate that Hotmail doesn't indicate 2FA is enabled in the failure message, as Gmail does. It would have saved some time for your game.

@scousemart You can download mapskins like maps. This mapskin is available in the repository, under skins. Map skins are a view option, of course.

Moving to Bug Reports (no matter if valid).

Just noticed that the map name in the zip file is ww2global40_balanced2_0, whereas the mod shown in the game as Balanced Mod3. I know it's not that important but I think the xml should have the same names. I thought someone should know.

FYI... As of build 11550, you are now required to enter a username and password when using PBEM with either Gmail or Hotmail. Hopefully, that will prevent this rather mysterious error message from confusing someone in the future.

@scousemart The initial state of this checkbox has apparently been broken since it was first introduced in 2012 (however, as you observed, PBF works fine). A fix has been submitted in https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/3774 .

@panther @RoiEX Great stuff.

@scousemart It is always possible that issues mentioned in the game notes might have been fixed in the meantime. But concerning this issue you can easily reproduce the flaw in Global when for example you can bring an Infantry from Germany to the transport in SZ 114 during Combat Move Phase - and another one for example from Poland during Noncombat Move Phase. Clear violations of the rules, but incorrectly possible in TripleA. There may be other related scenarios of course.

@cernel This option sounds potential the most straight forward: 1- Having a default pointless (always passable) canal and closing/opening it, with triggers. TBH a more rigorous inspection of the code would be needed to really weigh each option. It looks like given the options we could do something if we committed to it.

@scousemart si You can swap in the engine settings now if a wish

@scousemart Indeed, for the first "attempt" it is irrelevant whether the option "Repost Turn Summary" is checked or not.

@panther Thanks for clarifying. I know it did sound a bit of a daft question but it is good to know and I suppose it's better to ask than sit in ignorance...

@scousemart If you just need to view the notes outside of TripleA, then the new version of UBr may help. I have added an option to view the notes in version 1.0.4 See this thread for instructions You need to follow the instructions to see the notes clicking the link will not be sufficient. For those who loaded XMLs into UBr prior to version 1.0.4 you will need to reload those to see the notes.
