Wind Direction

[scJazz]

In a scenario is the wind direction set...

1) When the map is designed?
2) When the scenario is built?
3) When the campaign is built?
4) Each time the battle is played?
5) Some other time?

How about wind strength? Is it variable? Sometimes smoke dissipates in 4 turns sometimes it feels like less.

Strength is definately variable (I scan the map like a hawk to spot enemy arty), but I know no more to help you except I would say its strength varies whether I have had beans, pea soup and cabbage or not (sorry- sorry I could not help it).

I try to keep the direction away from other people, but it really doesn't matter as the area becomes saturated pretty quick. I've been known to cause the cat's hair to fall out.

From repeated testing it looks direction is variable based on each run. So you can play the same scenario repeatedly and each time direction will be determined randomly.
