Can not repair rails

Post by CapitanPiluso »

Hi people
Although I have some units with eng capabilities ( from 12% to 37% ) into damaged rail hexes, the option to repair rails is not present when I right click on the unit icon
Some tips about this ??
Thx

You need to find a unit that has Rail Repair capability.

Just out of curiosity Kamerad Gaucho... what scenario are you actually playing?

Look in your Inventory. If you have RR crews in your inventory then there must be units in your OOB that have the ability to repair rails. You would just have to find them.

Curretly playing AGS Hungarian Campaign 1944 (Russian side)

At the end of turn 14 I got a draw; managed to almost secure the east of Tisza river but guess the hardest part is coming [8D]

I checked it out and there are no Rail Repair Squads in the OOB, and no Rail Repair in the Event List. So it seems that you are stuck with the rail net that you have at start. Don't use New Supply Rules in this one.

Oops...can I change to old rules during the game ??

Hola compadre Gaucho!

You have the following options:

a) Change to old supply rules - go to the game options menu at the start and active the OLD supply rules.
b) Go to the editor and add 36 Rail Repair squads to each of the RR Organisation Todt Regiments that are supposed to be Rail Repair units anyway.
c) Becasue it's a pre 3.4 scenario; I strongly recommend to adjust the Attrition Divider to a range between 4-9 (9 should to the trick in a half-week scenario) and the Maximum Rounds Per Battle to 3.

If you want me to do those changes for you, drop me a line; will take 5min.

As the Oberst says, Yes you can. The change will not take effect until the next turn.
