Re: Hexgrid maps


The latest beta update and the upcoming Update have a new option to add hexes to maps on the fly, thanks to William's work. So players have the option to have or not have hexes on the maps.


Mmm - I guess that you are getting tired of whining old men :) But the new option "show hexgrid" becomes ...

Re: Hexgrid maps

A big thank you!

I understand that the devs have put down quite some effort to remove the hexes as it really looks more "realistic" without them. But under the hood it still is hexbased as you see when clicking on the map. So then I very much prefer this version - especially the one with only ...

Reproducable CTD Bug in CMO Steam edition with editor

<r> I had this bug yesterday - and also after the first patch today. Version 1.00.11156<br/>

I pulled up my old "Baltic Storm" scenario that I started doing in the closed Beta for CMANO way back, so it's probably a rather interesting mess <E>;)</E> Fixed some "bugs" where I could not update ...

RE: Filters on the diary

<t> Agree with StuccoFresco's list.<br/>

Apart from the movmement "spam", I think that compressing the combat statistics would be good in the "general" event log. Then there could be an option when selecting the actual unit to have "view detailed log" where all the data with probabilities ...

RE: Filters on the diary

Love the game and looking forward to SS.<br/>

One gripe though - I cannot find a way to filter the types of messages written in the diary. Sure - I can filter to only show events for the selected unit, but what annoys me is the "spam" of "Unit xx arrives in hex xx". That ...

RE: Can't assign group to mission (says problems with No-Navigation zones)

Nice - thanks a lot for digging into it!

With an error message like that it will be possible to understand why it does not accept it. I will dig into how to do that in Lua instead!

I too have seen this behavior, and after some digging I find that it seems to be tied to having a sea control mission that overlaps targets for any other mission. If you add your units to the sea control mission they will join it and execute ...
