That's pretty cool! Why Genoa?

Doesn't seem like it

Hmm, could try one of those fumigation cans. I think we used them a few times before when we had fleas.

After much testing with the new Azgaar's update, the military numbers seem to be unrealistic but proportional to the size of the respective burgs they represent. When I hover over every regiment that was procedurally generated, it gave out names that represent the burg they come from, fleets don't have their own names, they just say the number and then "Fleet" but can be renamed. Also on the legend of such regiments and fleets, they form unrealistically way earlier, going as far back as the Warring States period using the era name that I inserted in the Options tab, so I just ignored it. I then used the 1939 census and shrunk only the most important nations' populations down to around 400 million, it rounded up to 401 million when looking at the "States" box on the very bottom. Again, it's not fully accurate because back when censuses had to be done manually, it became highly sketchy and prone to errors. The last thing I want to say about military units is that when I turned on "Military", I can see all states' units exactly, which means even if radar/sonar can't detect it from faraway, thanks to turning on this new option, this would mean that every player would see each others' units exactly, they don't have to warn their own forces upon spotting enemy units up close, and can freely move them around with just a simple click and drag literally anywhere.

I was also unsure how am I going to share .MAP files to my friend every time I want to update it, let alone able to save it myself for later use and perhaps save it as .PNG/.JPEG so I can see what exactly I updated. Assuming I have the .MAP file somewhere on my PC but my friend doesn't have it, then how are we going to do turn-based battles if the next time we want to take a turn we lose that version of the map and only myself can still make changes, that would be very unfair to me. The map's seed I'm using is 949923021. Then, at the time of this writing, after figuring out a way to get around it by copying my map seed's URL, it goes straight to my clipboard, I then tried to use that URL to get that map seed, only to find that my favorite WWII map isn't there, the seed ID is intact, it uses whatever settings that I already put in as "default" to generate a generic version of Siam and losing all of the other changes I made which would've taken me half a week with breaks to do it. I then decided to try .SVG format, which then when I opened it, takes me to my favorite map, with everything all set up and in full screen. It has my own real name as the start of the file, but what is more important is that I can now try and see if I can embed an .SVG file to an .SVG uploader where everyone can see who made them. Unfortunately by the time I tried to put it there, it didn't show up my map but it did manage to get into the uploader, as a red X. Although .SVG kinda of used to being popular back in the day, it isn't recommended for security reasons. The last thing I would try is simply use the final option offered, the Storage one. It is then saved like a little cookie that I can then use later as long as I don't clear my browser cache, but still it only goes to my own browser's storage.

I was only just a step away from being successful. Now I'm starting to feel unwittingly have to control all states' actions on my map unless I find a proper solution.

i think vladimir putin and xi jinping are lovers but nobody knows about it

Well, that is some good relief news, I gotta say. Anyway, my revamped Pacific Theatre Map is all done somewhere, it looks much nicer than your world maps that you did years back (now with units already automated and ready to go). It is not a 100% accurate map in terms of randomized culture-based burgs but still it is better than no names. 🙂

Wish people stopped making everything political. Every year idiots make every little thing political. Wish they all did themselves and everyone a favor and never buy phone data and a modem ever again

Unfortunately, that is not how this world works, the world is meant to be called a reality arena in which while everything in life is playing out every second, everything is happening very fast, bad and good news travels faster than our fingertips, and every one of us has its own pattern to follow. The universe isn't a simulation, it is a one-way eternal trip to the infinite black void that will take eons to progress beyond us. Unless technology somehow catches up fast enough and not hindered by current events to be on the level close to that of a fantasy marvel, we are but a tiny speck of the human timeline that we can easily destroy ourselves almost immediately if we're not careful in handling our own lives. It is like "Outside", but we're already in it. We don't have displays on our eyelids and faces, we only have a single life, are mortal, and thus have to define our behavioral patterns to survive. Not having one, or going through a very bad one can lead to a very early, irreversible end, simple as that.

I made my own team from scratch with the aid of A.I. and now I have my own characters to play around for the duration of my renewed tournament.

People who do cancel culture should leave the net for being offended for things said/posted years ago. People change you wastes of life (to people who do cancel culture for that reason alone). People who are maps/pedos are okay to cancel. But views that changed through years should be left alone and if the things were posted when they were children (under 18) shouldn't be used against them, everyone is edgy at one point of their life especially in that age

I'll take a look at it soon, hun! I kinda gave myself a migraine yesterday, so I was recovering from that...

Yesterday, I had the "pleasure" of discovering I have something called "Cubital Tunnel Syndrome", essentially Carpal Tunnel, but in the elbow. I tell ya, what is with my bad luck that makes me pick up random new injuries every so often? Ah well, at least this one will go away with self-care... =w='

Pfft, carpal tunnel problems is way too easy for me to recover since I tend to exercise my arms even when watching random vids of people doing funny things or streaming their games. But as for migraines? All it takes for me to avoid that in the first place is a sweatband. I use that when I play high-stress games such as Birds of Steel, No Man's Sky, and others. Those are the ones that require more vigilance than playing casual ones. When it comes to spicy foods, the sweatband is what really saved me all the time because it absorbs the sweat on where it originates, the forehead and the back of the skull, those two points is where I think the migraines should originate there. For my spine, it's the pillows that helps align my body nice and straight for computer gaming, typing, and watching. That's where I think it should alleviate or stop the occurrence of back pain in which elders tend to get when they get older.
