<r> Not perfectly ideal, since the tankers are usually 18K capacity and I often don't want to take that much fuel away from a base. So I have to watch each turn and cancel manually when they have enough loaded.<br/>

But thanks for the answers.<br/>

<t> Is there a quick way to get a TF to load both supplies and fuel for those supply runs to bases? I mean, I can create a TF with an AK and load supplies, then create another TF with an AK and load fuel, and then combine them into a single TF...but come on! That 5-10 mouse clicks I really shouldn't ...

270/268 = Max Sorties/Current Sorties remaining.

CV has used up 2 sorties.

In PacWar, there was an optimal air TF size, based on the training of the two nations. US TFs worked best when they had 1-3CVs. Japanese TFs with 3-4 CVs. (if i recall the numbers correctly) Is that still true in WiTP?

Toggle for base inclusion in auto-convoy on the main game screen's panel when the base is selected. So i don't have to open base info to change this, but I can still go base-by-base and pick the ones with the aid of the map to determine if they should ...

Actually that is the thing that bothers me the most about wargames. Wellington didn't practice defending his ridge in Belgium 53 times to see what worked best.

Perfectly valid point. But Wellington didn't have to get ...

That's a serious shame. I'm really not sure I want to spend that much time playing Quartermaster General...

It worked pretty well in Pacific War, even without the ability to add or subtract bases from the system.

<t> Desperate need for UI improvement here. Getting the right bases into the auto convoy system is really difficult until/unless you know off the top of your head where each base is.<br/>
<br/>
Simplest solution: add toggle for auto convoy to the base info panel that appears at the bottom of the ...

<t> Does the following work in WitP the way it did in PacWar, to get past the lack of waypoints in game?<br/>
<br/>
- Create a TF in San Diego<br/>
- Set it's destination for Christmas Island, or in the case of WitP, a hex nearby the island.<br/>
- Set the home port to Espiritu Santu<br/>
<br ...

<t> I played Pacific War to death. One of my favorite games of all time. I have only begun playing WitP.<br/>

There was a nifty little concept in there for transport TFs. If you chose a transport mission, your ships would head for their target and would stray into enemy zones of control. If ...

The 1.21 patch has absolutely no effect. The game still consistently crashes to desktop with no error message when historical first turn is off.

<t> Except...when I switch the setting to not use historical first turn, I crash at the same point (just at the start of the day phase on day 2) every single time, just like I did with the unpatched version of the game. So you still have a bug in here.<br/>
<br/>
Will try the 1.21 patch, but ...

Realism options page, turn off the historical first turn.

I can only say..."d'oh!" Thanks.

<t> I installed the game. Ran the tutorial up to the crash a couple times. Tried the Coral Sea scenario, crash after order phase. Came online, found 1.20 patch. Patched, even renamed wp.prfs to wp_old.prfs. Well, now the game seems to work, except...<br/>
