Switching sides when using the old or new editor.

Post by Mac Linehan »

Gents-

"The Road to Leningrad" as the Soviets. Because Germany has the first turn move, Germany is displayed when the new or old editors are opened. I have fiddled around, but have been unable to switch to the Soviet side in order to edit.

There is absolutely no doubt in my mind that it is a very basic step that I am overlooking; sooo, time to ask the Smart Guys (tm).

What an awesome game; I have this week off and am just immersed and loving it.

Thank You for your help.

Switching sides in the old editor is done by pressing 'W' when looking at the map, no idea abot the new editor.

Thank You, Sir.

I did various word searches in the Editor Manual pdf; moments after I posted my question I remembered that it was the W key. Oh well, I learn (and often relearn!) every day...:)

I'm late but one thing that I noticed is that you need to have the ground units visible on the map to switch side. Having AOGs or nothing won't allow you to do it.
