Yes this IS due to the mortar not being in weapon slot #1.
The bombardment screen seems to take the range (and ammo) of the weapon in slot #1 for bombardment purposes.

In order for a vehicle to fire an indirect fire weapon, it must be of a class able to fire indirect (ie SP Mortar) and have that weapon in slot #1.

This can cause problems if you want a weapon with say sabot on the same vehicle ... (eg OBAT 35 #312 SPz sWS/2)
The options seem to be:
a. make it a non indirect firing unit class - the mortar then only fires direct
b. move the mortar to slot #1 - the moved weapon loses sabot.

I was thinking you could use that 1st Kaiserreich flag for OOB 44 maybe, as I've been messing around and testing them too. The lack of an eagle is a subtle difference but a tangible one which would work better than trying to add the diving eagle from the national flag.

Feel free to swap the flags around however you wish! :)

You have all the relevant files - use SHPEdit to swap em in and out

This is because the Bueffel + and Marder + are set to be a Rocket APC class (#245). They need to be set to a direct fire APC class (one of the unused MRV classes perhaps?)

Please excuse multiple posts (too long between them to edit), sorry.

Never used SHP edit, so maybe I'll have to teach myself. :)

Its not too hard, just a little long winded! There is a tutorial HERE.

As Monty said when the testing is done we will release a full version with all the relevant files including flag mods - we just need to decide which ones we want (or provide alts)

Btw, are you going to add 2 different flag alternatives (Nazi-Germany and Wehrmacht(I suppose?)) into mod's sub-folder? Like in "official" game?

Yes - we have already done none-swastika flags see above.

Looks like we will end up with about 4(? still being decided) versions: "Nazi" and "Kaiserreich", with both standard "large" flags and Modded small ID and roundel objectives flags.

You are asking for an Icon for the Wesserflog P1003 Tilt rotor, not the flying boats they made, right?

^^^ This? ^^^ (Looks eerily like the USMC Osprey :D ) or this one:

Thanks! Indeed. The tilt-rotor aircraft. If possible in winter (light grey) and summer camo.

Five, in fact. Two variants for the Kaiserreich: to scale and roundels. For the Third Reich: with Swastika and without to scale and roundels with and without. I believe they are all present and correct?

The mortar problem I've now dealt with. Will take a look at the Marders and Büffels and change the unit class to something else. I thought rocket-apc was an atgm class. Oh well, never mind.
