    How do I turn on "missing" dice buttons?

    Hello VASL gurus, I had to set up a new computer with a new VASSAL/VASL installation (3.7.18 and 6.71 respectively) and can't seem to locate the option where I can turn "on" the large dice buttons (IFT, TH, TK, etc.).

The Finnish counters are out of place; i.e., they are not centered to a hex. I'm doing this to write an AAR, so I will need...

    Tra2 Extension 1

    This zip file contains the "Tray2.vmdx" extension. It has a new tray mapboard with its own button "Tray2" in the chat window. It is provided if you want to have a second tray window (i.e., one for each player) during your game. It works identically as the "tray.vmdx" extension.

To avoid incompatibility, here is a small Python (version 3) program to display the versions used in a .vsav or .vlog file so you can use the same versions. It is a...

    Updated Swedish Volunteers extension

    The current version of the Swedish Volunteers extension has the old ski counters and no Ahkios so I added them. The counter colors should probably be changed to the official colors, but I'm not a good enough artist to do that. What do I need to do to get this added to https://vasl.info?

    VASL trip flare counter
