I'm new to the game. I started a game in 1900 with Italy and my starting destroyers have 400 ton displacement, but if I try to build a ship I'm only allowed 300 ton displacement.

Is this normal?

<t> What can you do to improve the speed of research? I know that there are the budget sliders that let you control the priority between research vs discovery, but is there anything else you can do besides that? I guess you could try to get more BP to put into the research council's budget, but are ...

<t> Sorry for the late reply here. I found that I needed a Staff Council. I already had the model council, and created a light tank model with it. But then I was never able to actually get the light tank model to appear in my list of available formations to create. I had to then get a Staff Council ...

<t> I don't fully understand how the model design system works. My problem is that I can design a model for a light tank, but after I do that, nothing happens. I never end up being able to create new tank units.<br/>
<br/>
When I look at model reports, it says I've never designed a light tank ...

<t> I took a look at the save and found that if you first ungroup the 3 ships, you will notice that the "no cavitation" option is checked for the ships. <br/>
<br/>
Seems like it might be a bug, since as long as the ships are grouped together, the no cavitation option is not checked, yet the ships ...

<t> I'm having trouble exactly duplicating what I saw before, but I would think you're right that one aircraft in the group was attacking, and the other one was RTBing.<br/>
<br/>
I've attached a save file here where I can demonstrate one odd thing I noticed. In the save file there are two flights ...

<t> I was playing the "Peeling the Onion" tutorial mission and noticed that whenever 1 plane from a group ran out of ammo, that the whole group would turn around.<br/>
<br/>
This happened both when 1 F/A-18 would run out of cluster bombs, for instance, or when one EA-6B would run out of HARMs.<br ...

<t> Sorry, I tried the scenario again and now I can't replicate what I saw the first time. This time, I WAS fired upon, and there was no odd "spinning in circles" behavior. The next time I see something odd in a scenario I'll definitely grab a save of it before reporting it on the forums here. I ...

<t> There's one other thing I need to mention. In that mission I first sunk the two patrol boats, then I sunk a Komar. After sinking the first Komar, the other two ships (Osa and Komar) in the group started to spin around in circles. They stopped sailing straight and kept just making counter ...

I was checking the ESM signatures of the contacts, and once the ESM report showed that they were Syrian navy I manually designated them as hostile.

Thank you Mikmyk. Here is the log from the scenario if it helps:

<t> I just played the "Yom Kippur War, 1973: The Battle of Latakia" scenario that is part of the base game scenarios. During the mission I was able to easily dispatch all of the Syrian vessels using the Gabriel missiles, without facing any opposition from the Syrian vessels. I was not fired on once ...

I am wondering what the focused strike option is for in the mission editor? The manual doesn't seem to mention it (I would imagine the manual hasn't been updated for it).

I didn't realize before that the PlayersDB used a bunch of "borrowed" content in it. I am wondering what databases are out there that have ANW scenarios set in modern times besides the scenarios that come with ANW?

Thanks, I forgot about the wiki.

I am wondering how the pursuit radius option works when making a mission. Does it work for AAW missions and what happens if you leave it on 0 nm?

In one scenario I have an AAW Patrol and my aircraft are traveling 100 nm away to ID aircraft with a pursuit radius of 0 nm.

<t> Ok, I did a little bit more testing and I couldn't illuminate surface vessels either, when they were 10 NM away and declared hostile.<br/>
<br/>
Anyway, I was playing the scenario called "Escalation" in the battleset Regional Conflicts 2 and trying to fire SM1MR Block II's from a "DDG 61 Babr ...

<t> I was playing a scenario with ANW 3.8 and the original database that comes with it. I had some ships that had SM1s available but I couldn't get them to launch. Is there some trick? I tried firing at both aircraft and incoming missiles and nothing would work. The weapon allocation screen always ...

<t> Well thanks for the info. To be honest I don't play Harpoon a lot and when I've visited HarpoonHQ in the past I've always grabbed DB2000 scenarios. It doesn't seem like theres much going on for DB2000 updates at the moment. So I was kind of being selective with my original post and I didn't ...

<t> I know about the game performance selection slider that is in the Launcher. I've moved it to the fastest speed setting when I was playing with the betas before. However, I swear I remember that the time compression for minutes, like 1 minute, 5 minutes, etc really didn't work well with a beta ...
