switch objective tracks

Post by d1973 »

If I set 3 objective tracks,will the PO use one of them by default or do I have to trigger the Force 1(2) Track event for the first turn?If I edit the Force 1 Track to switch to track 2 in the first turn and for the same turn I edit it to switch to track 3 with a probability of 30% for both how will the PO understand it?Does this mean that it will try first to switch from track 1 to track 2 and if it fails it will try then to switch from track 1 to track 3? If both of them fail the PO ramains with the track 1?
Thank you in advance!

From what I've seen, the PO will use the objective track that the scenario is saved to. In other words, if you save the scenario while it is set to objective track 2, it will start on track 2.

For switching tracks, here's a shot of one way that I know works. This is to have the PO choose one of the three tracks (in this case, the tracks are named Plan Model, Plan Martin, or the Grand Slam, so that I know what is going on). Notice it triggers on turn 2, I can't remember why, either there was something else that interfered with it on turn 1, or it didn't work properly on turn 1. You can try it on turn 1 to see if it works. Put a news string for each event so you can trouble shoot it easier. Once you know it works you can delete the news string or add 'debug' to it.

Hope this helps, Cheers!
