Re: How did you manage this bug? Diacritical marks

OK so it seems it was because the game file went into notepad at some stage and this MIL became an issue.

what I did
- opened the fast game start
- copied all the Dusseldorf info from the fast start
- pasted that into the game file
- saved as UTF-8... now the name is just whacked...

I am ...

Re: How did you manage this bug? Diacritical marks

this is not an issue with editing in Notepad... we have the same problem in our game... in fact, the unit pooped up in a MJ build pool when it was JA... so something is going on. I killed the unit in the game file and through it to the force pool, but something's wrong ... or at least I don't think ...

Re: more than 2 player games

I'd like to keep it in real time... I believe Teams allows remote control of a comp... we had other solutions before... but nothing was perfect!

Re: Current State Playability?

there was a very good list of the precautions you should take to keep the game moving, save after all naval combats being one of them, where was that?
the other one is check your convoys in all sea areas where there was combat... they sometimes return to base instead of stay at sea... not sure why ...

Re: A thought experiment about the game

I use AI all the time at work in a very different context (writing, scripts, images, video), but it won't be able to reverse engineer this game in its entirety. It could provide options for specific problems or bugs.. but it would be confined to very very specific issues. Theoretically, you 'might ...

Re: MWiF in new machines with Win11?

I actually haven't a clue what most of the above means... but here's what I do:
- I have a Mac with an M1 chip
- I run Parallels and emulate Windows 11 (at least I think that's what happens)
- the game works just fine

cheers

GREAT to see 8!

There is no other game where you have to be competent tactically, operationally, and strategically. I call it the three threes. You have to think three impulses ahead, three turns ahead, and three years ahead all at once. Then you have to reinvent when things go awry... and find new opportunities ...
