Warcab 0.8.0 BETA version

[ErikCumps]

Let's see if I get this right...

I'll be using the following notation: [unit id](formation leader unit id).
Please excuse the poor ascii art... (damn spaces got lost, no art today )

In your first example, the OOB changes like this?

[B0](B0), [B1](B0), [B2](B0), [G0](G0), [G1](G0)

[B0](B0), [B1](B0), [G2](B0), [G0](G0), [G1](G0)

[B0](B0), [B1](B0), _________ [G0](G0), [G1](G0), [G2](G0)


And in your second example, the OOB changes like this?

[K0](K0), [K1](K0), _________ [O0](O0), [O1](O0)

[K0](K0), [K1](K0), _________ [O0](O0), [O1](O0), _________ [T0](T0), [T1](T0), [T2](T0)

[K0](K0), [K1](K0), _________ [O0](O0), [O1](O0), _________ [T0](T0), [K2](T0), [O2](T0)

[K0](K0), [K1](K0), [K2](K0), [O0](O0), [O1](O0), [O2](O0), [T0](T0)


I ask this because I need to understand the mechanics.

Warcab tries to track each core unit during the campaign, for promotions/demotions,
equipment upgrades, replacements and reassignments.

That's not an easy thing to do...

As German, I start with 3 sections of 8cm mortars (B0-B2). Sometime after Eastern Front, I will pass command of 1 section (B2) to 1 of the infantry companies (G0), and upgrade the remaining 2 sections to 12cm mortars.

Starting core
B0-B2- 3 sections of 8cm mortars
G0- Company Commander
G1- AT Rifle Section

After Eastern Front
B0-B1- 2 sections of 12cm mortars
G0- Company Commander
G1- 1 section of 8cm mortars
G2- AT Rifle section

Conversely, I will sometimes add 1 core unit for the purposes of changing their sub-unit's HQ, and then deleting the core unit after the battle. Similar to the case above. This is what happens

Starting core
K0- Company Commander
K1- AT Rifle Section
O0- Company Commander
O1- AT Rifle Section

After Eastern Front
Added T0-T2- 3 sections of 8cm mortars

K0- Company Commander
K1- 1 sect of 8cm mortars
K2- AT Rifle Section
O0- Company Commander
O1- 1 sect of 8cm mortars
O2- AT Rifle Section
T0- 1 section of 8cm mortars (to be deleted at end of battle)
