Re: Display issue

Are you running multiple monitors simultaneously?

If so - try running just the one monitor at a time and see if it works properly in the older 1980 HD and with the new WUXIA one.

IIRC, some...

Re: Display issue

1366x768 was the weird and wonderful display resolution these cheapo laptop 13 inch or 14 inch screens used, one had to shave 6 pixels off the game window width for these or kaboom.

I forgot to...

Re: Display issue

Looks like this weird resolution of 1920x2000 - WUXIA - is a "new thing". At least there are a couple of such monitors available at the local PC world, and a couple of those are in the 120-159 quid...

Re: Display issue

And so your old secondary monitor was old, and happened to support the full-screen resolution you were using. Switching back may work, but maybe not if you also loaded a new video driver - unless you...

You get that result when you try to open the game in a fixed resolution that your monitor cannot handle. The game options programme does not matter - it is a windows desktop programme. The game is...

Re: Size Zero Aircraft

Something to put on the to-do list then, though the level bomber class is pretty much irrelevant other than for its intended use in scenario design.

Re: Smoke question

Smoke is an LOS blocker to vision through the smoked hex. It can also provide some cover from spotting attempts for unspotted units.

Any adjacent hex has LOS to the hex opposite, always. So smoke...

Re: Smoke question

At that range there is no point since smoke needs to block the LOS - which cannot be done at 1 hex range. So quite pointless. And if it was at 2 hexes and the faust was spotted already, then you...

Re: Unit and terrain data not displaying under mouse

My windows 11 home offers 800x600 monitor mode. 640 is long gone, and I doubt there would be much screen real estate at 800 with its supersized task bar and giant icons!

Re: Unit and terrain data not displaying under mouse

Are you running it full-screen? - if so, you will need to find out how to shrink the monitor so it is fitting the actual screen - usually via some buttons to adjust the X and Y on a proper monitor,...

Re: Unit and terrain data not displaying under mouse

Then unless someone else comes up as seeing that error - I'm stumped as I have never seen that one.

Try a complete reinstall perhaps?

Re: Unit and terrain data not displaying under mouse

I have not seen that, or recollect it being reported.

What version shows for the game? - it should show V 17.00 - Free on the main screen.

If not, then you didn’t install some part of the...

Re: Daimler Dingo

the code there was showing the wrong index.

You cannot change preferences in a PBEM game. So not versus a human opponent, just the AI.

Re: Sniping

And if buttoned up, it is more difficult to hit things with it when firing, its number of shots etc can be reduced.

Plus a buttoned vehicle is easier for infantry to close assault. So spray down...

Re: Taking cover

Eh? - there is no "cover" status

It is an action that costs a unit 2 MP, and it may or may not work to make the unit undetected. You will soon find out if the enemy has or hasn’t lost sight of...

Re: Taking cover

Take cover is an action and not a status

A successful take cover action breaks enemy LOS and makes the covering unit undetected once more, is all.
