Re: Scenario 28

The gane will show changed data on the unit information screen - however the Encyclopaedia always pulls information from the basic unchanged OOB data and so if a scenario designer changes the unit...

Re: Scenario 37

It's the space bar that is the "break in" key for AI v AI games, IIRC since the new fix that allows the U for smoke off and so on in the latest release.

The paragraph that starts:

Re: How to create real maps?

Well, see the sticky re height maps at the top of this forum, I think tthe tool still works?

Re: Something I stumbled upon

Back in the early 90's the world 1/300 modern championships in Derby changed from the usual "meeting engagement, pick your own XXX points army from the army lists book" to a scenario-based model...

Re: Something I stumbled upon

True, but one should play a PBEM game to see how vastly different an SP game actually is.[/QUOTE]

Re: Something I stumbled upon

The first thing I did was to make the AI deployment much more random and sensible (aimed at the objectives).

The initial SP AI deployment was always a "phalanx" set smack in the middle of the...

Re: World War I mod

I havent looked at this closely, but make sure that your mod uses 1930 and onwards dates as a base and not later 40s onwards. Because the game already is programmed to have really longer artillery...

Re: Cost Armata vs Leopard 2 a7v

ATGM tend to be expensive items. Especially modern ones with added "special sauce" features like multiple charge warheads or top attack.

Me, if an OOB has a choice between an MBT with and without...

Re: Campaign error 006, B Company, 11th MEU.

I just started that one up and the units beyond formation C are invisible. You can select and place, but no icon is present, likely an OOB issue (as in the original unit is no longer there )

Re: SP gun vs. Tank

Yes, opfire on turning was a couple of builds back - there is a flag on the preferences menu to turn it off if you dont like it.

Re: SP gun vs. Tank

It certainly would be a non-trivial task since pivoting of hulls or turrets have nil cost in the SP universes physics. Nor does traversing windy mountain roads require one to slow down, and things...

Re: USMC Drones

They were cloned off a ground unit of some sort that was only used 2 or 3 times - those were changed thus freeing up the class.

However no work was done to Mobhack to tell them they were now a...

Re: Question about possible changes to campaign system

This has basically been there in campaigns since the very beginning in SP1 and MSDOS days.

Both sides can lay out all 10 priority hexes.

So the number is not reduced in the scenario editor - it is...

Re: Artillery priority target hexes

Yep, I cannot recollect if the scenario designer has the full pallet of 10 per side to play with, or if the batle type restrictions apply as given above.

If they do, then change the misssion type...

Re: Question about possible changes to campaign system

Yes - if they were getting the points scored twice for carried over damages to enemy unfixed units then the total points would be 43+43=86, and not 43 (ie 0 points added to the first battle's score,...
