Re: Quick Questions Thread

Hi Joel,

thanks for explaining it. What confuses me is that the depot directly below it has a priority of 3 (not 4) and has 266 trucks. It is the same turn. I would have expected the opposite.

Re: Quick Questions Thread

I try to get my hands into logistics:

Why does the game just allocate 20 trucks in that depot? My units have to use a lot of trucks and doesn't that cause their MPs to drop? In my motor Pool there are still 1233 vehicles. I am playing the Road to Leningrad scenario if this matters

Fleet doesn't investigate queued target

Hi,

don't know if bug or user error. I asked in discorded. I was adviced to ask here:

I queued a thread in my target list. My (automated) defense fleet doesn't investigate it. It is in range and should have enough power. If my advisor suggests to investigate the same threat and I accept it my ...

Hey,

I am sorry. I just looked it up if there is an autosave before. But I've played that save game along and the save games got overwritten.

Can't see a problem here. It seems they haven't fired at the fortification :-/ . But why?

no fortification reduction

Hi,

I don't understand why my artillery doen't reduce the fort. I am standing several turns with several divisions around Talinn. But the fortification level is still 2000. I can't find any reduction in the daily logs either. They receive direct fire support. The bonus is 14 %.

What do I do wrong ...

Re: [1.20 t2 + Oceania] Can't add Beam weapons

Hey, thanks a lot. I wasn't aware that they can't be used for light and medium tanks. Perhaps the pop up should be a little more detailed then.

[1.20 t2 + Oceania] Can't add Beam weapons

Hey,

not sure if this is a bug. I have played a stratagem to get a technology. I got "Beam Guns" but can't add it to my armour. I haven't researched Laser rifles or guns yet (which is a prerequisit). But if I can't use that technology perhaps I should have not received it with the stratagem.

Re: Council Reports


The problem is that I sometimes forget whether I'm researching something (especially when running all four research councils)--I see the notification, think "I'll research that next", and 10 turns later get curious why I my (nonexistent) prior research project hasn't finished.


Exactly, this is ...

Re: Council Reports

Thanks. It seems that nobody has the problem that one sometimes forgets that no research is running. Don't you think it would be nice if my advisor would ask me if there is a new possible research target if his departement doesn't research something at the moment?

Re: Council Reports


You should get a VID message "new technology discovered". That is your clue to call up the Economic Council about actually researching the stuff.



Yeah, there is a VID message. But sometimes I don't remember if there is a running research and therefore I don't get a report from the council or ...

Council Reports

Hi,

I don't know if I play it wrong. If I tell my leader (in the economic council) to not research anything because I don't want / need the possible research and to use the bp for discovery. If something then is newly discovered my leader doesn't ask me again. Sometimes I ask myself why I can't get ...

Re: Help with supply rules

Hey,

thanks for your fast response. I have always concentrated on cutting off railways and roads. The rule in 7.14 made kind of sense to me that if roads and rails are cutoff the supply is massively interrupted. I have to change my tactics accordingly.

Best regards

Help with supply rules

Hey,

I have cutoff last turn the soviet cities with my paratroopers. Nonetheless the soviet city of Proskurov has a supply of 5. I would assume it should be three. It is not connected to any key resources. What do I misunderstand?

Thanks a lot for helping me

Hey everyone,

I have a lot of escorts and I want to set them all at once to auto-patrol? How can I do it?

Thanks

And P.S.: What does auto-patrol do?

Re: How to queue ship orders?



From my (very limited) level of experience, it seems like manual scouting wasn't really a big concern. It's there as an option, much like taking the stairs to the 14th floor is also "an option". Manual notes of what is and is not scouted is seemingly flat out not intended, be it in-game or ...

Okay, thanks.

What do you think? Why do they don't have a global queue for it? Wouldn't it make sense?
