Re: Next patch

Always good having a new patch and thank you! Not so good it resets your settings so watch for that.

Re: Twin Valleys deploying units

If you look closely you should see a tiny lock symbol above units that can't move during set up. I struggled with this at first too as the lock was so tiny and I have a 27" monitor.

Re: save and exit.

I don't see a file in the File list after exiting. Looks like it does Save on Exit but file is not visible in the File Save list.

Re: save and exit.

Wondered this myself as seems to do nothing for saving - I always save manually before exiting and that is fine of course.

Re: Unit Placement Observations

3. If you drag a unit to Place it, and it goes out of the FOV, it randomly disappears and gets placed in a random spot on the map. You then need to hunt where the program decided to place it even though you never told it to place it.

Unit Placement Observations

1. When placing units during set up, I've noticed the mouse pointer does not align very well with the unit you are trying to place. It could be 3 or more squares away so it can be a little confusing. If it matters, I'm in 3D mode about 45 deg or more angle from the map.

2. For me anyway, it would ...

Re: Are there range circles for weapon systems?

Ah this explains why Shift F seems to do nothing - Only for helicopters does Shift F work. Good to know.

Font/DPI Appearance Changes in Programs after Exiting AB2

Played my first scenario and when it finished, and I exited the game, my Chrome, Outlook, etc. has changed the font/DPI appearance -- for lack of a better description. Text is light and hard to read in programs outside of AB2. Kind of a washed out appearance. After a reboot, all is fine.

I also see ...

Scenario Size/Complexity

Since I'm new to AB2, and would like to start with more simpler scenarios, is there a way to tell if a scenario is smaller/less complex? I didn't see a way to determine that in the scenario listing.

I did notice it looks like scenario sides are locked which is fine but if I've missed something ...

I had same problem but could avoid crash by doing ESC to get out of this locked Disband screen. Will try Y on keyboard next time!
