Undercovergeek,
Sorry for the confusion ... I made this screen and as you say it is a bit hard to read [8|] I'll improve it for the next release (if I have time)

But, your Naval points should be increasing by 725 per turn NOT 200.
1384 Shipyards - 659 (Points needed) = 725
Points increase from 5077 + 725 = 5802 (next turn)

So either you are wrong or I am ... can you post the Industry -> Global screen so I can look at the points history

Yeah but check out the Optimum Button which Graphs, Ship->HI usage. It shows HI usage regarding this across the course of the campaign. I'd need to check but I think I need to make a third graph here regarding the status of each ship (so if it has been halted to recalculate the graph) -- irc if I did that the first time...[&:]

If you are using Nomads region-mapping files, then I'd be looking at the Macro stuff in the Industry-Overview, it will give warnings. But specific to your query, Industry-Oil&Res, clicking on Honshu in the top panel. First look at the Resource History, then look at 2 columns for days remaining for Oil & Res...This is the critical mass.'
Then look at the details panel ... This is fairly the same as the witpTracker-(stock)version, but given that I don't think the engine moves res/oil/fuel around as well as witp (the amts are larger) & (and I'm sure this is being worked apon), maybe I need to nail this down even further with additional requirements and days remaining ... for individual bases ([&:])

Also the Base Tab, gives histories about this stuff too ...

Let me think about what is needed, Floyd and I are about to get another release out soonish, and the problem is I'm not playing a game, so need you guys to give me the heads up.

So Cheers

i seemed to have wondered blindly into providing some assistance - youre welcome - checking pages now, thanks very much for your help - my main concerns are supplying honshu with oil and res, and making sure i havent killed the economy by expanding the factories and icreasing the aircraft output too much...... i should be ok from here - again thanks
