Re: Battle generation changes max speed of a ship

Just posted a similar report - been getting the same thing

FYI, you can save the game, exit, go into the .sac file, and edit the affected ship's speed - bit of a hassle, but it should work

Bug Report - Ship's speed in battle doesn't match design

I've noticed this bug twice in my current game, and packaged a save for it this time.

I'm on the current Steam version, playing with a nation mod.

Twice now, I have had a raider intercept battle generate, where I had an older cruiser (which was listed in the "X ship intercepts raider" event) plus ...

QOL request for Modding

I am sure this has been suggested elsewhere before, but in the event that it hasn't:

If possible, I'd appreciate getting each start date getting their own .nXX file extension. As is, right now both the 1890 and 1900 starts read the .n00 file, and both 1920 and 1935 read .n20 - which makes it a ...

Re: Is this the end of the month?

My impression is that you are setting spending/tasks/priorities/etc at the start of the month, then playing said month out when you hit end turn. Battles are the one place where you get a hard date, and I believe if you get a battle after hitting end turn on the January month it'll be a January ...

Re: Buying and selling ships

It hasn’t made it to the regular release version yet, but in the current steam beta you can get the chance to sell one of your old ships (or have an AI nation offer to sell you one of theirs)

Re: Triple Turret/TPS restriction are too strict

Just dropping in to voice my agreement as well. I pointed out during the beta that you cannot build the US standard battleship templates which are in the game - I posted an example of a completely unchanged autogen design done a couple of years after the first standards which was illegal due to the ...

Re: Sea mines and ocean depth

Yeah, as far as I know, RtW doesn't have any simulation of ocean depth. It's all just "water deep enough for warships to operate in"

Re: Carrier size

That would be a very nice QoL improvement - as it is you have to go to the design screen and see when it starts complaining about your carrier being too large

Some miscellaneous suggestions

Based on my recent playthrough, a few things I'd like to see added to the game. None are particularly critical, but would be (in my opinion) nice to have:

- I would like an intermediate "engine refurbishment" option between not touching the engines at all in a refit (blank refit) the full on, tear ...

Re: CV magazine explosion?

I don't think it is something that happened historically, but as you say, there weren't a whole lot of carriers getting involved in gun battles IRL.

And as others have mentioned, carriers do still have magazines for their DP guns (or 6"-8" anti-surface guns, in cases like the Lexingtons, Graf ...

I haven't yet, mostly because I figure updating will break my current save due to the change in save file format. Once I do update I will check again and update things here.

Potential bug in treaty tonnage calculation

So, I was running some numbers today to plan out what ships I could scrap and what I could build in the wake of a new treaty, and I ran into something that seems... weird in the calculation of the tonnage available.

I have a treaty limit of 1,130,000 tons, and a capital limit of 565,000 tons. The ...

Re: 'scuttled at a neutral shore' when 20k yards from own harbour!

I had one better - recent battle against a French raider trying to slip the blockade, it had gotten back into a French port before the end of the battle, but still came up with the "forced to scuttle on a neutral shore" event.

I ain't complaining about the free cruiser kill, but it does seem rather ...

Re: Question about Aircraft requeriments

Double-prioritizing the same aspect is supposed to emphasize it more than setting it just for the first priority, yes. Is the aircraft model that you're comparing to an upgraded version (B, C, D, etc model)? Sometimes a heavily upgraded aircraft will be better than a follow-up aircraft of the same ...

Minor bug I just noticed - the after battle log for one of my 600 ton small destroyers reports that "unit machinery reduces engine damage", when the design does not have unit machinery - unless it was checked (but hidden) in the autodesign, though the game didn't give me an error about that option ...
