Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

I can only go by the messages displayed onscreen at the time of the kill vs the increment to the score when the clock ticks over to the next minute.

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

Any news on the patch to fix this yet? It's severely hampering my game, not being able to assign multiple missions to a unit.
Also, as I think the bug is causing the losses tallying process to miss some of the kills (my Freijagd caught 11 Hurricanes and 4 Fulmars attempting to land and I was ...

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

It's true that in prior turns in this game I've launched raids with groups making their second raid/escort of the day, so it looks like the bug is here to stay in this game. I don't remember if it's occurred in prior releases I'm afraid. All we can hope for is 1.06.75 fixes it.
Many thanks for your ...

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

Update: I've set up a completely new set of raids where none of the participants are flying >1 in the day. Same result: my lunchtime raid on Middle Wallop didn't happen. Oh yes, and I/ZG2 went on a flying tour of Ireland instead of Close Escorting a raid (KGr806 did something similar in a previous ...

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

My only issue with the theory is that the start time for a (non-flying) raid is, typically, 0730-ish: there hasn't been time to launch one of the participating Gruppes on a prior raid.

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

I noticed that the first time I tried a very large (for me in BoB) raid - circa 300 bombers + ditto fighters - was the start of the problem. Perhaps the 'large' theory is right. I'll try breaking it down.

Well spotted and thanks. I'll try the odd start time and see what happens.

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

I've pared the turn down to a very few missions - a few FS and BOMB missions, no recon, no Auto Plan of anything. In the latest iteration, the first two missions execute (Epr210 low-level on Rochford, StG3 on West Prawle, both starting at 0600) without a problem, as do 2 raids from KG30 and KG3 on ...

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

Update: I've made some changes to the missions for the day and managed to get a mission-set that actually plays.
Several game-days down the line - all of which had the same issue - and I've still got the problem.
It's becoming unplayable - I don't want to have to rebuild each days missions many ...

Re: ED Bombing missions not happening

No 'bad weather' reports - I've had those in other turns in this game. I've played this game for decades (TalonSoft version) and never encountered it before.
I've seen the clock jump forward too, between raid groups (am vs pm for example). In the replay on message level 3, there is no message ...

ED Bombing missions not happening

Playing 'Eagle Day' as Luftwaffe, scheduling day and night missions withing 10/11 Group areas, and the game jumps past them - the clock literally skips past these missions and doesn't perform them. In the same game, a (night) mission with the Stab unit as lead bomber + I/II and III units as ...

In CTGW, you can apply <I><s>[i]</s>any number<e>[/i]</e></I> of attacking aircraft <I><s>[i]</s>of any type<e>[/i]</e></I> to attack a single target hex. Think about that - these ground units are army-size (Regular, not Garrisons), and they can be ...

Eagle Day (1940) 1 month scenario as Luftwaffe. Created some bombing missions, decided to add some staff-generated REC missions. Reviewed the generated REC missions, cancelled a few, leaving numbered but blank lines in the mission list.<br/>

"Discovery" combat

<r> Hi all.<br/>
First I'm really glad I found this game: WWI is underrepresented in wargaming IMO, and this one beats CTGW hands down.<br/>
But.<br/>
I'm really getting frustrated by the game mechanics of what happens when you move a unit and it discovers a unit in the "Fog of War". No problem ...

Thanks Vic. I don't fancy the modding myself, I'll just live with it.
