<t> You are 100% correct that I had that function unchecked. I replayed the tut and the sub moved as I moved the waypoint for direction.<br/>
I was simply wondering if there is a different color for a targeting vector. That's all. Just one of many details that I am learning about that you helped ...

<t> Hi Colonel,<br/>
My sub is assigned to an ASuW patrol. I have not found anything about these vectors in the manual yet....still looking. With that said, it could very well be a targeting vector since it was pointing at the neutral target. I don't know the color of a targeting vector though.<br ...

Thank you! Got it this time.

Do I need to be someone special to d/l this update. The URL claims the file is missing.

Thank you for clearing that up for a noobie, :>)

<t> Since I am fairly new to CMANO, I am working through the Basic Sub Tutorial. Not sure if my settings not correct and so I'm not sure what to expect.<br/>
1. My passive sonar does not want to designate the DDG as hostile even at 5nm. Of course, once it fires it's torps then it is designated as ...

I am fairly new to CMANO. I am working through the sub training tut. The little blue line extending from my unit does not change regardless of my heading. 1. Is the "blue line" a velocity vector as I have been told? 2. Should it change as heading changes?
Thanks.

Thanks. I'll do that.

Thanks. OK then; the velocity vector should change as the sub changes direction, correct? The data block shows the heading changing but the vector stays fixed. The vector actually stays "pointed" at the target regardless of which direction the sub is headed. What am I missing here?

What is the little line extending out from a unit? I first thought it indicated the direction of travel. But that doesn't seem to be the case with a sub.
Thanks for the help. More questions to come I'm sure.

<t> Have to say I am getting real frustrated trying to figure out what I am doing wrong. Maybe if I post a screen shot, one of you guys could point out the error of my ways.<br/>
I am playing on a small random map. I am supplied. I am trying to keep my stacks under 100. I just can't seem to master ...

It's me again.
From time to time I am seeing red & blue boxes on an OpFor piece. I just can't find out from the manual what it stands for OR it's implication for my forces. BTW, there are "+" marks and numbers as I recall.
Thanks.

<t> Gentlemen, thank you very much. <br/>
I think I haven't been using my engineers properly. Up to now, I have placed them all on the resource hex instead of building roads.<br/>
Now in my current game I have been learning how to use the engineer and it bears out what you are saying. Duh!<br/>
I ...

<t> ...or lack there of. I'm holding my own until I outrun my supply.<br/>
<br/>
I think I understand from the posted page on "Supply for newbies" that there is 250AP of distance for supply to reach the front lines. OK. Multi-part question:<br/>
1. Should I move my "Boss SHQ" closer to the front ...

<r> Thank you gentlemen. <br/>
For some reason, I thought I read that capturing enemy resources did not help my army. Must have misread it.<br/>
I typically put my engineers on the raw goods. Since PP are in such scarce supply, I rarely get those resources upgraded in favor of researching units. I ...

<r> OK! I am still cutting my teeth on a small random map. Two, maybe three questions came up during my last endeavor:<br/>
1. When go to change the production say from armored cars to tanks, I get a box pop up letting me know that I will lose stored production. How do I avoid losing stored ...

<t> Just wanted to report, thanks to all of your input, I won my first game!! I was starting to wonder if I could ever get my head around all of the nuances and details that are required to master. I have a long way to go AND no I'm not looking for a pat on the back. Just wanted to let those who ...

Thanks to you all, I lasted 12 full turns this time before I was encircled and forced to surrender. I can see where sub HQs could help in combat readiness and power, where the front gets stretched out. So, another day, another game.

I am definately a slow learner. One of my issues is not being able to quickly and easily find answers I'm looking for. So I take the lazy route and ask all of you vets. Thank you and the "gods of gaming" that you are willing to help and share.

Thanks all.
Re:SFT; I was using the wrong terminology. I was referring to the "counter" in calling it SFT. Thanks for the correction.
