Management speadsheet and other improvements

Rule the Waves III is a simulation of naval ship design and construction, fleet management and naval warfare from 1890 to 1970. and will place you in the role of 'Grand Admiral' of a navy from the time when steam and iron dominated warship design up to the missile age.

Management speadsheet and other improvements

Post by Alan McDonald »

I think I have mentioned this before, but would it be possible to have a fleet management spreadsheet tab, which would list your classes, how many built, building, scrapped, sold, and refits (with refit year)? It would be easier than having to continually count your ships, especially if you are building a large number, and you want to build a certain amount. Also, when you are building a class, and if you do a refit while building that class, can you change it so you can build either the original design or the refit design? Seems strange that you have to build to the original design, then have to refit the ship, when you already have the plans for the refit. Finally, I have noticed that when starting the game, (and this seems to happen mostly with AMC's), the program is building a ship, while the design is still being produced.

Thanks for the feedback! Do you have any screenshots and saves you could share with us that show what you're talking about?

I started a 1935 game, parameters as per screenshot 2. As per screenshot 1, the initial fleet, building ships screen, there is an AMC building, and right below it is its design study. Don't know how to get a save that I can attach.

Since you're on 1.00.35, you should be able to find your saves in this location here: C:\USER\Documents\My Games\Rule the Waves 3

Zip up the relevant save folder and upload it to this forum as part of your response.

Here is my suggestion for the ship management spreadsheet.
