Yep, very definitely not fixed. I picked a country that looked fixed, and declared war on it. It was immediately broken.

Your going to have to try something Else Andy.

Obviously we will have to.

the error is not, as we thought, in the map layer where the cities and other objects are.
The error is in the database and when you repaint, based on the records in the database, you get the same map again.

so we have to find exactly what is causing the problem in the database
and fix it
and
we have then to repair the wrong item.

I looked into the Kingdom of Mentalak.

Today or tomorrow, I will manually wipe out the next layer which is the database records related to all the items on the map of this country.
All names and locations of items will be wiped out too.

The following month run should then rebuild these records, based on the source, which is the country database with all numbers of items and their types.

This is a more radical solution and as I know the underlying structures, it should resolve the problem.

In case it does so, we will automate this action and extend it to all C3 countries on TA.

This is radical but has no other consequences for the countries.

At this point, we have reasons to believe that there is no more to this problem than the false records that currently describe these items.

It looks fixed now, but my other test war just won't expire. So I cannot test.

The maps in the kingdom of mentalak seem to be fixed.
It means that the procedure does work.

I was surprised by the time it took for the new items to show up on the map after the wipe out.
This is of course no problem. The first month run did not fix it.
the second one did.

We will now try to find an easy way to do the same, in one go, to all C3 countries on TA.

It might happen tonight or the day after.

We will also look into the war expiration.

Due to the different way TA works, we have a monthly procedure that makes sure many parameters do not run away.
The procedure fixes them repeatedly and makes TA what it is.

The procedure is probably overdone in some aspects of the simulation.

We think that it is responsible for what happened.

In the mean time, and for more reasons, we are removing many of these controls and are bringing TA closer to the way other worlds work. <

Won the war in Mentalak. The graph corruption thing is not fixed, but I only observed a single entangled target. Bekasi Targon was at one point tied to a City. It cleared up, so whatever else your doing maybe compensates.

any time estimate?

before i need to start spending more gold coins to buy TA countries for more natural resources
i'm just down to a few types left in my country which is still landlocked by countries that have hidden capitals and targets that none of us can take over

see my dilemma here?

so should i start spending money on gold coins so i can use gold coins to buy countries for resources? still trying to decide on $24 for 210 coins or just go all in and $36 for the 360, what do you suggest? I want to play the TA game but i'm not able to

i'm seriously asking, not a joke

thanks

Please don't give him money for not fixing a bug. He should give you a country if he can't fix it.
If nothing else he could fix one country next you. The one he fixed for me, I've beaten twice now. It's still a little buggy though, which means whatever fix he was planning, didn't fully work.

But that fix is good enough for a one off done to a country for you.
