PBEM Campaign Smoke bug?

[Mobhack]

And do you happen to be player No. 2, who is normally the AI, and has this happened after battle No. 1 in the campaign?.

(If not, that shoots down the theory I was going to investigate when debugging the code later )

Can't be much help I'm afraid as Pz Bob set the Capmign up. We are also still on our first game of the Campaign.

Hi Andy,

I believe PanzerBob is playing at least two campaigns, one against Blitzkreig (slot 005), and one against me (slot 002).

I am player number one in our campaign.

In battle 1 I had light Infantry (core forces) with no smoke and paratroopers (support forces) with smoke.

In Battle 2 all my units have smoke, even the heavy arty; but apparantly some of PanzerBob's units do not have smoke.

Hi Don,

All our artillery in this campaign is 'on map' artillery.

Hope this helps.

cheers,
Cross

OK....... that "paratroopers (support forces) with smoke" comment is very helpful. I've been testing this with just core units, no support. If indeed the support units are getting the smoke they are supposed to this may go a long way to figuring out what's gone wrong.

In Cross's and mine campaign in Battle 2 my troops have no smoke Slot 002. None of my Paras in Blitzkreigs and mine campaign have smoke their loadouts state 0.

I've also noticed at least one unit poping smoke with no smoke appearing. I checked after the turn ran though and there was no smoke in the hex.

All Campaigns against the AI I trialed everybody had smoke in their load outs. All my troops in the Campaign against the AI I'm currently playing and the AI partisans have smoke too. Certainly this is a PBEM Campaign quirk that I'm sure you guys will figure out. I have faith in that more than somethings.

So far we've tracked down a couple of things going on. Player 1's units will not get smoke in game one but will get it starting in game two . Player 2 is a different isssue with some unit types getting it after the first game and some not.

Also, this appears to only affect core units. Support troops appear to be given normal smoke "rations"
