Divsion Editor is sensless?!

Post by Bigfish »

I spent huge amounts of time Editing Divisions but it is sensless! Every time again the Battle generator does what he want and split defined divisions without any need and logic:


1. Carrier Division in Editor:
- Carrier 1
- Carrier 2
- Carrier 3
- Carrier 4


will appear in the Battle as:


1. Carrier Division
- Carrier 1
- Carrier 2
- Carrier 4


plus


Nationname Carrier Division xyz
- Carrier 3


This happens not only to Carrier Divisions also to every other Divisions.


By this - please remove the Division Editor or change the Battle Generator only to use the Divisions like they are defined.

I second this, it is frustrating. A real Admiral could tell the ships to form whatever grouping is required, and would never split pre-prepared combat formations like BBdivs/CVdivs to form new groupings of imcompatible ships.

Pretty early on in my game I gave up on divisions. I'd be happy to be corrected, but it seems as useful to gameplay as making space ships look cool in a space 4X game.

Divisions work from my experience except for the occasional exception, if which I don't know if it is WAD or a bug

Thanks for the feedback. We are currently working on some battle generator changes and other improvements that we are hoping will positively impact division management and transparency in tactical battles. Stay on the lookout for the next round of updates.
