I see now there's a bit of difference between them. The various naming conventions are not always clear, you may wish to update the Readme to address what they mean for those of us who are thick-headed

@ Wiking: What would you write as a suggestion for the readme?

In the meantime, I`m off to bed. Its almost 02:00 am here and its been a long Sunday.

I was mostly just thinking an explanation of what the designations for each company meant. PAK, + and - are self-explanatory but what is a "B" company or an "A" company? You can somewhat guess through glancing at their layout but I might be missing obvious cues, I apologize.

Good point. I will do that.

If you would like help writting unit and formation info texts let me know, glad to help out!

I'd like that very much Scorpio. I'll get back to you on that. Just tested a platoon of Kaisertigers - suppt. by Pz IV Js (a Plt. of five) against a few armoured Coys. of Soviets. Slaughter!

Say, did you guys get the latest update that I pm'ed you guys with? How did you like the new flags? How is the readme now? Easy to follow?

scorpio_rocks · #8 July 1st, 2015, 07:56 AM

Sorry mate - Yes got the update, Love the Afrika Korps flag!

I will get more time to play a couple of full games tomorrow so hopefully will have some feed back thursday night / friday morning.

Wiking · #9 July 1st, 2015, 08:15 AM

Just got it, Monty! Looks great, much less confusing now

I'll try to give you more feedback soon, school's just got me over a barrel lately.

BETA TEST

Had a closer look at the readme and went over all the updates in detail. Its much improved and easier to understand now, thank you. I have noticed a slight issue with some of the helicopter sprites while playing around with OOB 44 in mobhack:

Sprites 6264 - 6266 - 6265 for unit 729 (Do. H34 TTH-55) seems to have parallel lines running through the sides of its hull, like the pixels are missing. These do not appear to be on the gunship version of the H34, so I wanted to make sure this wasn't an error? It appears in the normal, winter and desert icons each.

Also, was unit 734 supposed to have a designation beyond TTH-95? It seems a bit out of place; for the moment I designed it Do. 310 as the "successor" to the 214 as that was kind of annoying me. Please let me know if you had intended an actual designation for it!

One thing that really strikes me about your release is how relatively few bugs I'm finding. Errors and things here and there, sure, but far less than I'd expected for the amount of work put into it. You really are fastidious.
