@flyingbadger Has anybody else encountered the following error:

“comparison-method-violates-its-general-contract”

when trying to use the editor to remove troops on a transport?

I’ve not experienced it. What version of Triplea are you using? Could you post the save and the steps you took to see if other people get the same error?

You cant remove troops from a transport in edit mode during cm/ncm turns, the only way to move those troops entirely is during any other action, like purchase or placement etc.

If you want to move them instead of remove them, you can better use perform move or other actions in the edit mode. Then just click edit mode/perform move or other actions/click on the units you want to move like you would do in either cm/ncm.

@flyingbadger Thanks. To reproduce load the attached file and attempt to delete those troops sitting on the 4 British transports in SZ98.

I am running Engine Version: 2.5.22294, Java version 11.0.6 BM3 Map 3.4.0

I have the same engine and java version. I recreated your actions and got the same error. Tried removing them and the transports they are on and still got that error. Also, tried deleting them in a different phase and this also produced the same error.

I did do as @cds suggested above and I was able to use perform move in edit mode and get them off the transports onto land. Maybe this will be enough for you in this game?

[LennardF]

@flyingbadger Thanks, that looks like it will work. I’ll have to wait until my next turn to do that since it requires being in Combat Move mode and it’s now Germany’s turn but I was able to do a test on Germany’s turn and was able to move them off to Alexandria from where I expect I would be able to use edit to remove them.

Repair - rule when capital captured - Triple a seems to skip the purchase phase entirely when a capital is captured. This means it skips the part where ships in a navy base can be repaired. The rules say there is zero cost to repair ships. Should ships in a navy base for a country that has lost it’s capital be edited as repaired or should they stay damaged because the engine skips the purchase phase entirely?

[gamerman01]

Go with the rulebook - edit as necessary

Interesting glitch

[aagamerz13]

thx for the reply gamerman. so I can edit them as repaired?

No glitch, but the rules. These are the rules, from Pacific 1940.2 rulebook, page 21 :

“The original controller of the captured capital is still in the
game but can’t collect income from any territories he or she
still controls and can’t buy new units. The player skips all but
the Combat Move, Conduct Combat, and Noncombat Move
phases until the capital is liberated.”

Repairs take place during the “Purchase and Repair Units” phase.
No such phase -> no repair.

@panther Thank you for clarifying this panther.

[gamerman01]

Thanks a lot Panther!
I didn’t remember that one! You’re amazing

[aagamerz13]

So, is this rule only listed in pacific but not the other two? I’ll follow it but it needs to be added for Europe and global for clarification

[aagamerz13]

nevermind, I found it under combat section in Europe rules. Purchase and repair entirely skipped for lost capital.

Travelling

[aequitas-et-veritas]

Thank you for the answer.

@aequitas-et-veritas Does anyone know if downloading or using the BM4 map will have an adverse affect on the BM3 map? I’m late stages of a BM3 game that I don’t want to mess up but would also like to start a BM4.

[trulpen]

I believe that the game started will stay that version despite updating the map.
