Odds calculator.

@Stucifer said in new version:

Most forum games I see on 2.6.?? with a lot of variance in the ?? part of the version number. Basically every small thing that the Triple A team works on gets recorded and stored as a version number, which is why there are so many.

Exactly. Every small change or adjustment leads to a new pre-release. But only a very, very small fraction is savegame-compatibility breaking.

Meanwhile we are at 2.7xxxxx. A current problem is that we have been waiting for a new “stable” release for years. But it doesn’t look like this will occur anytime soon. So pre-releases are all we can get right now. Being “stable” is just a tag, a timestamp in development history, however. Pre-releases usually are not “unstable”.

@VictoryFirst

It looks like the players - once again - have to take care of the game rules themselves. As v1 rules differ from the Europe 1999 -rulebook.

@VictoryFirst

I recommend to finish current games with 2.6 and then start new games with 2.7.
Also, yes, all players should have the latest version installed.
2.7 is still in pre-status however.

@crockett36

yea I don’t really know, just that league guys use it to pbf. There’s a few other people here that use it as well.

They’re separate sites. Seems like there was a little more interaction when redrum was actively developing.

@axis-dominion Yes, this should be filed to the project, indeed.

Edit: I just see, that simon33 has already done it.

@CaptainNapalm Thank you for the savegame.

Indeed, when I use your savegame the situation appears to be resolved incorrectly.

However I have recreated similar scenarios using the current TripleA pre-release (2.3.21385) on different maps (including BM3). All of those have been resolved correctly.

So there was

a question to attack or not a question to submerge or not correct surprise strike execution

That brings me to the following conclusion:

Either there has been an issue with the engine (what I doubt but cannot exclude for sure) but the issue has already been resolved with current versions or there is an issue with your game that contains some triggers that might have somehow messed up the correct resultion of the situation (what I cannot examine in depth, knowing too little about that specific game).

So I recommend to

install and run the latest TripleA-version and the latest map-version begin a new game and see if that issue occurs again

Maybe @regularkid wants to take a look into it, too.

I take a cue from the post for a question: what is the difference between “Av unit left” (attack or defend) and “Unit left if won”? maybe it’s a trivial question but …

@Hepps01:

Remember the calculator is simply calculating the odds of victory or loss based on casualties from weakest to strongest in attack or defense value.  meaning it is removing the weakest units first followed by better ones later.

That’s about what I suspected, thanks!
