Haven’t had a chance to check out Th e new patch yet but the addition of player status are a big plus. Thanks to the developer team indeed

Thanks for making the total victory option for singleplayer games.

What is the bottom HUD? I've tried hovering over all sort of stuff and nothing shows up when I do this. I'm guessing I don't know where the HUD is or what it is.

This is a most excellent update! Love it

Hi there,

The bottom bar HUD element referred to in the patch notes is the UI element that is anchored to the bottom of the screen. This element contains the current phase/round, victory city points, End Phase button and War Report. If you hover your mouse over the Power icons (Soviet Union, Germany, UK, Japan, and USA), you will see the player name controlling that power, and after another short delay, their current status.

Cheers,

Cody Ouimet

Thanks for the response Cody. On Mac OS Catalina nothing shows up when I hover my mouse over those icons.

Great additions guys keep up the good work. Will patch #11 have a chat function?

What resolution do you play the game at? Go to Settings and try another resolution. If you still don't see anything, please report the issue at https://beamdog.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/3 with your Mac specs.

Nothing regarding chat is set in stone yet, but if we do move forward with some form of cross-faction communication, we want to do it right in a way that maintains and keeps Axis & Allies a fun and safe spot to play for all players.

It is likely that the Dock is interfering with the bottom HUD if you don't have it hidden by default. I've seen this with both Axis & Allies and other games, where macOS's Dock will interfere with game elements, even when full screen. As a point of reference, I play on a MacBook Pro with Catalina installed, and I have no issues with the feature, but I do have my Dock hidden until I move my mouse to the bottom of the screen.

Do you have to download the patch or is it automatic?

Please help! I am unable to move my units during the combat phase. The only thing I see are the available regions light up red but moving my troops is impossible.

Try going into Options - Settings and enabling the Legacy Renderer.

I changed the setting as you advised but the problem persists. I'm running on the latest macOS Catalina on a MacBook Retina 2015. The game was working fine back when I played in the fall.
