What documentation about "command option", "defend orders" and "digging in"?. The only game with command, and units that dug in after a while was SP
3, not this game (based on the SP
2 engine).
SPWAW was based on the SP3 game engine. If you have SPWAW, you are on completely the wrong forum, wrong publisher, wrong development team etc.
Please do give me a pointer to the documentation, the title of that document would help, who it was written by etc. If "Steel Panthers 3 - Brigade Combat" or "SPWAW" or "matrix games" features heavily in that, then you are
definitely lost, and you likely need to go to the Matrix forums.
Everything else is irrelevant
until we have determined
what game's documentation you are actually reading, and what game you have on your PC. As I say - from the non-WinSPWW2 elements described, you seem to have SPWAW, most likely?. Or are reading their documentation and trying to apply it to our game perhaps - which is like trying to drive a Microsoft PC by reading Apple's manuals...
Cheers
