Warcab 0.8.0 BETA version

[ErikCumps]

Fellow wargamers,

Two quick notes.

#1: a new Warcab BETA #7 is available.

I have sent a PM with the download link.

This beta has disabled the core formation/unit count check when adding
savegames to a campaign (for winSPWW2 only).

The upside is that this will allow adding savegames to the campaign dossier
even when core units have been added/deleted/cross-attached...

The downside is that the unit history tracking and the campaign reporting is
probably incomplete and/or incorrect. There's more work to do here to get it
right, I am afraid...

However, the battle and turn reports will be correct and complete.

#2: I am going on vacation to Italy until the end of the month

This means I won't have time to work on warcab until early September.

In the mean time, if some of you are willing to start a long campaign with three
(or more) battles where core units are first added and then later deleted (to end
up with fewer core units than in the first battle), that would be very useful as
reference material when I start investigating improved unit campaign tracking.

See you in about 2 weeks,
Erik

What a very cool tool! I am looking forward to giving a spin when ready for general release. Wishing you the best of luck!

Hi there!

I'm back from a very refreshing holiday, the dolomites where absolutely fantastic!!!

This also means I can restart working on the remaining issues with the current warcab 0.8.0 BETA.

I believe these are:

• add full support for core unit additions/deletions/cross-attachments
  (I already have an idea about this, but some example save games would be highly appreciated!)
  
• support more heights (up to 15 levels) on the stratmap
• don't show dead units on the stratmap
• add a "limited-intel" option to hide opponent formation and unit information

If you see something missing from this list, please let me know!

Thanks,
Erik
