Multiple questions on map options for TripleA, especially on research and development

@Panther

Thank you Panther! That worked. :)

@Gargantua Right. The issues are already addressed:

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35803/battle-calculator-not-working
and
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35846/submarine-related-issues-with-triplea

and have been analyzed by the developers here:

https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/7848

As far as I have understood the problems occur when not all players are on the most current stable version. Once a game is either started with an older release or a savegame started with the current version is opened with an older version the games are somehow corrupted.

This is why I have added the following note to some of the stickies here:

Note:
Problems in games started in the past cannot be resolved by updating the TripleA client, as updating the client does not change the game information stored in savegame files. In other words: As long as nobody starts new games with up-to-date clients and maps, the problems, saved in savegame-files, will be carried over and continue.

Also: To avoid issues it is always recommended that all players use the latest stable version to beginn new games. So when playing together, reassure yourself that everyone is up-to date.

Here is a link to the download, complete with orange Japan, green China, grey ANZAC, and now black Germany!

I’ll make a post about it on the tripleA forums as well.

EDIT: To install, simply put the ZIP file in your triplea/maps folder and it should work.

v3 is AA50
v4 is Spring 42
v5 is 42 sec Edition
v6 is the 1941 starter board

Have fun dude

Sounds like you aren’t putting in the correct password for your A&A forums account.

If it’s working right, then you should be able to click “test post” prior to your turn and a test post will come up in the appropriate forum thread.

Doublecheck that you have play-by-forum turned on, that you have the right password and account name, and that you have the correct game id in the pbf section.

As long as we’re talking battle calc, how about allowing the user to specify OOL?  Sometimes you want that bomber on defense to be taken last and see how much that changes your chances….

Or to hold subs back and not lose them first.  Can be very significant when you have super subs, like I often do.  :-)

Meanwhile, I will continue to rely on my more detailed and versatile calculator, even though it’s designed for AA50.  It still works better for Global than the TripleA calc, even though it does carriers different and doesn’t have tacs

I decided to put together some nation specific navy units for TripleA.

The latest and greatest TripleA release (0.9.3) is now available on SourceForge.net. 
Download it here:  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=44492&package_id=119711
This is considered an unstable release, but it is also a release candidate as we have already found/fixed many bugs in the last unstable release.
So… we need AxisAndAllies.org PBF beta testers!
This release contains many fixes and enhancements, including all the PBEM/PBF enhancements that I made available on A&A.org last year such as Turn Summary Posting, and Edit Mode.  Since these are now in the main TripleA stream, they will be maintained from here-on-in provided proper bug reports are filed.
If you find a bug, or something you think might be a bug, please post a bug report here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=44492&atid=439737
Enjoy!
