Simi Update

[Hard Sarge]

I was saying I wanted to release a newer OOB, at the time, I figured I would wait on Harley's next masterpeace to be done, and release them together

but waiting on him, I started working on other parts, and have been having others test what I was working on

sooooo

looks like it is taking Harley longer then he expected to get what he wanted to get working

and in that time, I have 3 or so more bugs, I want him to look at, once he is done with his side

so, I am back to redoing more of the OOB

for the BoBs

the new changes in the game, really hit HARDer in the BoBs then they did to BTR, so have been working to touch this area up (Nick/Otto/Tech, seem to be having some fun with it, some of it works good, some, well, it is still a AI, but it don't give up easy)

for BTR, I have been revamping the IT OOB, not that it will make much difference to the game, but, at least it will be closer to a real OOB then guesswork, based on a number of sources that basicly were quessing to start with

I got a much better idea of what planes were in use, what planes were with what units, corrected the names, and the size of most of the units (I found a couple of Stormo's (Groups) that were in fact only Sezones (flights), corrected where I could, removed were I could "prove" they were there)

(I like the one I corrected, it is a Gruppo BM (which means it is a bomber unit) but it is flying NF's, so, corrected it's name and give it the night fighters it had)

(and yes, it is one of the few Bombing units to fly night defence with fighters)

correcting, adding in some Airfields, correcting other parts of the map, that were either mistakes or places too close to each other

no comments ?

guess I will bring the Cr 42 back to life

Well, you could specifically mention your Italian sources.  Also details on the airfields etc if you really want some comments[;)].

working off of Chris Dunning for the Italian Stuff (most of what I had before, looks like they didn't understand the command setup)

too many sources really, to list all of them for the airfields, but a lot of unit histories

[joey]

any idea of an ETA?

[harrappan]

Interesting stuff, and I'll look forward to playing with the changes in due course.

[Hard Sarge]

overall, I am working on BoB41, and that is what is being testings (if that passes, it is a easy, short, correction to BoB)

4 of 5 testers seems to like it, one says it is worthless (overall, I am really happy, with 90% of it, the rest drives me Crazy)

the hassle is going to be BTR/BTR44

with out some codeing, the new airfields added in, will not be checkable from the report pages, everything else about them works correctly

so I am not sure if I should release it or not

(until I can get some coding done, and that would mean, waiting on the Patch)

so....

[joey]

Well what does all this mean in terms of time and schedule? Are we talking days, weeks, or months? What options are there?
