On a similar topic, I've noticed flooding getting worse as I try to limp back to any port. Would bringing a ship to a stop (once out of immediate danger) help with securing the flood situation so that it can get back to port without sinking along the way?

Ohhhhh Maaaaatrixxxxx......


What say ye on this thread?

<t>Overall, I love the idea of the suggestion and would favor its implementation should Matrix, in their infinite patience with us (salute !), choose to pursue it. <br/>
<br/>
Some points (some of which reiterate others already made - and all of which are caveated with the ubiquitous "IMHO"):<br ...

Has anyone else noticed what I observed at least once.....that LI appears in-theater without any planes onboard? Does this strike anyone else as odd? I know I'm a newbie, but to send even a light carrier to a hot theater without any planes onboard seems stupid.

Okay, thanks. Was able to send someone back to Japan in a large scenario.

<t>Okay, this still isn't working....<br/>

I had CLAA Atlanta with 20+ systems damage and 11 floatation damage in the intro scenario.....I sent the TF she was in back to Noumea. <br/>

Once there, was not given the opportunity to send TF back to Pearl....tried to disband TF and send just ...

Thanks! Will give that a try.

<t>I'm a newbie and haven't yet read the manual, so please forgive meif this is blatantly stupid. <br/>

I've noticed that often I am provided a button to return a ship to its home port (on the map). However, even when damaged, there doesn't seem to be any opportunity to return a ship (or TF ...

<r>Agreed. And yes, I'm up on the thread about the B-17 vs Zero issue. Actually, I've been following the forums since Feb. waiting and drooling for the game to come out and get the kinks shaken out of it (I write software....never buy the 1.0 version of anything <E>:)</E> ). So, 2.0 came out, I ...

Thanks for the 1024 tip....didn't know that was setable in the game....did so and that did the trick.

The game always seems to require the disc being inserted...is this normal? What happens when I upgrade beyond 2.0 but still only have a 2.0 disc to insert?

<t>Just started with UV 2.0 and have some 'logistic' questions:<br/>
<br/>
1) Is there any way to zoom out from the screen a little more? I feel that I'm too close (and yes I am certain that I'm not already on maximum zoom when I say this....it still seems too close).<br/>
<br/>
2) Let's say I use ...

I just installed UV 2.0 and went through the intro scenario. O H M Y W O R D

They're as safe as they would be in Mama's arms. Why, I have no idea.

All waters beyond the Southwest Pacific are a beautiful paradise were all is right with world:p

The matrix store shows UV is backordered. When will it be restocked for customer orders? I finally have the time to pursue this and now it's not available.....aghhhhh !!!!! Besides that, I'm beginning to dehydrate from drooling over it.....help!

Is anyone at Matrix tracking developing trends in bugs or points of confusion so that such items can be addressed in updated virtual manuals and/or patches?

Hey, whatever happened on this thing?

They are most effective at limiting where the enemy will send his ships.

They are, in effect, just friction since everyone knows where they might be placed.
