CAP Air Units Cannot Be Selected

Post by rkr1958 »

During the CAP phase I'm unable to select the air units that the program tells me are selectable. I'm running version 1.2.1.5.

Cosmetic bug.

In the Main Form go to Command and Disable phases. You'll notice that the check box for Germany is on. If you check this button, you will be able to fly CAP in the Port attack phase. Of course, it would be better if MWIF would skip the phase if this button in on.

OK, thanks! So, is the normal rules for (M)WiF to play with these phases enabled (i.e., skipped checked off)? If so, then that's how I'd like to play.

A silly question, I hope. When I click off on the checkboxes, hit ok, save my game (or not) and go back to this screen the checkboxes are checked again. How do I keep these checkboxes unchecked?

That's something I didn't notice. Should be repaired, because that is more than a cosmetic bug...

All the time I have been testing I never noticed that about cap. I just tested it and it worked real well, what I did not check is if the cap fighter cannot intercept again until the next turn or HQ reorganization, and if your opponent sees the cap why would he even think about a port attack?

Hi rkr1958

I just went and tested cap on my beta version and everything is working like it should. In the picture below I went to each nation one by one and removed the check mark from each nations port attack cap without doing game save and it is working fine, remember you have to click on each nation to remove the check mark.

For example you might remove the check mark for Germany but when you check the table again it might not line up with Germany it might line up with say Italy and if you have not removed the check mark from Italy's cap it would look like all had their check marks put back [:(].

Thanks, I got it. What I did before was to go to each country and hit the "Restore New Game Default" button, next to the bottom. This appeared to unchecked all the boxes, however, when I reopened the form they were all checked against. This time, I went to each country and individually unchecked each box. After I hit ok (bottom button) and reopened the form they were now all unchecked. Thanks again!
