They seem to load warhead up to WH 5. (3 was the old weapon size field, now obsolete - it was only used for ammo load calcs I think).

Hi,

Problem 2: CCCP Unit 279 Motorcycle:

5 crew members!?

Suggestion 6: CCCP Unit 399 ZSU M-16:

Is could be better is that unit is considered as a artillery system instead of an AFV.

Suggestion 7: CCCP unit 399 ZSU M-16:

Is it possible to recenter that icon? It seem to me to much to the left.

Thank you,

Problem 2: should be 10 men as it's Motorcyles ---corrected


Suggestion 6: Seeing as it's classed as SP flak ( and has been classed that way since at least May 2005 ) I really have no idea what your problem with it could be except that you are using a modified OOB or have given me incorrect information.


Suggestion 7: I checked them in the SHP file and both points of rotation are where they should be. A little to the left or right is were an icon ends up when there is a turret at the back ( or front ) of a vehicle.

Their off-road mobility really us pretty lousy compared to ANY other all-terrain wheeled vehicle.

I would tend to agree with that

Hi,

About motorcyle S, I was thinking the opposite; maybe 2 mens/motorcycle.
But I understant you point...

About the ZSU-16, thank you, that what I was thinking...
Is just because the icon go in two hexes but that OK.

Thank you!

Hi,

Suggestion 8: Is it possible to create (randomly) a crew (1/2 mens) when a plane shot down?

Some helicopters have ejection seats too...

Thank you,

No - as aircraft don't have crews, and explode totally in any case. Fixed-wing planes are not allowed in cores, so crew survival is irrelevant for experience.

Hi,

Suggestion 9: Soviet K-61 (774) and PTS-M (775)

Should they not be able to carry medium trucks and other little cars; like heavy helos.

Actually, they can carry some howitzers but not their movers...

Ex. A D-30 but not the Gaz-66.

Thank you,

The load class (weight code) - see mobhack - for vehicles carry is 2XX, so try experimenting with your own version for this.

Unfortunately - if it is say 230 or so, to allow for the 30(?) or so troops capacity, then the 200 code to allow vehicles gets combined with the weight class of the vehicle, allowing class 30 vehicles (probably Sherman etc?). Or 3 trucks probably. 250 would allow 50 men, or a modern MBT (class 50). See the landing barge.

Therefore - you would probably want a load capacity of 210 to restrict it to a single truck - but that means only 10 grunts. That is why there are Hercules planes with a small 2XX code, that cannot carry as many paras as the 1XX version - and why there are 2, one for vehicle drops and one for para drops.

Also, in those AI pick lists that take light or heavy amphibians then it may well confuse the AI load code (or it will simply not place them inside, perhaps).

Overall - a nice niche idea, but open to abuse if you allowed several trucks on board, or administrative hell if you need 2 versions.

I'd stick to the regular barge, free floating or carried by barge carrier, myself.

Cheers
Andy

Hi,

Problem 3: CCCP Unit 655 MT-LB in groups 570 to 573 (Wheeled APC):

I think the MT-LB should be in tracked APC groups.

Thank you!
