Just name the sound “_”. If the player sound does not exist, it will use the default non-player sound. (veqryn) • Added a ton more new sounds to the engine. (veqryn) • Changed Sounds so that instead of specific sound files, the engine will search for specific sound folder. The engine will then randomly select a sound in that folder and play it.

(veqryn) • Created new Territory attachment, “resources”, which will allow territories to produce other resources besides PUs. (veqryn) • Fixed engine to allow multiple resources for purchasing of units and repairs. Added new panel on stats tab to show additional resources. (edwin van der wal) • Phase 4 of abstraction, RulesAttachment now abstracted into RulesAttachment, AbstractRulesAttachment, and AbstractPlayerRulesAttachment. (veqryn) • Created a new overlay for territory effect images, that is enabled in map.properties map.useTerritoryEffectMarkers=true, territory_effects.txt, and territoryEffects folder.

(edwin van der wal) • Fixed bug where ‘when’ based triggers did not fire at all. (veqryn) • Fixed bug where default based triggers were firing multiple times for each default firing location. (veqryn) • Created new Trigger Attachment, removeUnits, which allows you to remove units from a territory for selected players. (veqryn) • Created new Trigger Attachment, chance, which allows you to have a certain chance for a trigger to activate (tested only after all conditions are true). (veqryn) • Phase 3 of abstraction of RulesAttachment and TriggerAttachment and PoliticalActionAttachment: the creation of an abstract class to hold all common cold related to conditions.

(veqryn) • Created new rules attachment for conditions, chance, which allows you to have a certain chance for a condition to be true. (veqryn) • Temporary fix for the issues caused by only testing political conditions once. Now we test them after each political action. (veqryn) • Updated political action attachments validation to only test once per politics phase for all the conditions for each action. (veqryn) • Created new relationship attachment, givesBackOriginalTerritories, which lets a player give back originally controlled territories to another player.

(veqryn) • Changing PropertyUtil from using getClass().getDeclaredMethods() to using getClass().getMethods() for changing data inside game data objects, like units, players, attachments, etc. (veqryn & frigoref) • Extended Objective/Condition attachment count “each” to work with Triggers “resource”, “purchase”, and “placement”. (veqryn) • Fixing null pointer errors and conceptual problems with my way of testing all conditions.

(veqryn) • Phase 2 of abstraction and refactoring of TriggerAttachments: now all triggers get called through a single method, collectAndFireTriggers. (veqryn) • Created getAllConditionsRecursive and testAllConditions which will test get and test all ICondition, and now all RulesAttachments get tested through these. (veqryn) • Had RulesAttachment, TriggerAttachment, and PoliticalActionAttachment all implement ICondition. (veqryn) • Created ICondition, and interface for any Attachment that had conditions as a part of it. (veqryn) • Moved actions for victory trigger and notification trigger to be part of the trigger attachment so that they will return void, and therefore can abstract easier. (veqryn) • Deprecating TriggerAttachments “trigger”, and changing name to “conditions” in order to match the other uses of condition attachments.

(veqryn) • Phase 1 of abstraction of TriggerAttachments, creation of AbstractTriggerAttachment. (frigoref) • Fixed bug where I could move my tanks and all land units over water, so long as the end was land. (veqryn) • Allowed players with canTakeOverOwnedTerritory to take over during noncombat move. (veqryn) • Created new relationship type attachment, canTakeOverOwnedTerritory, which will allow taking over of an ally’s territory. (veqryn) • Fixing gamenotes for Lord of the Rings Middle Earth.
