Some more
Jp naval gun
14cm with 20º, 25º , 30º , 35º elevations have all same range

Nadzab can be made a port 3

In Jp side converting a xAK to an AD which deals with torpedos and destroyer class weapons takes much more time than converting a xAK to an AKE which besides dealing with AD wps also have to supply heavy ship artillery and CV mission.

Also (not sure if it's mistake or "feature"), Asiatic Fleet while being Naval HQ, has no Naval support squads.

OK, neither have Third, Fifth and Seventh fleet, being mobile administrative units. But I think Asiatic Fleet should have some. Maybe others too.

Hi Neil, welcome to the forum. As btd64 (coordinator) above you there would say, "Soon".
What that translates to is anyone's guess. It has been in a "when it's done, it's done" state for a long time now. Last big news we heard was Matrix has it and is working on internal "Stuff" related to approving it, etc. Who knows what all is entailed in that. Personally, I would add that as this is a free update using a small team who volunteered, I don't think Erik at Matrix places a very high priority on it compared to the rest of their lineup. That's just the way it is. I don't doubt he'd like it done and released as much as us, if only to get us all to STFU.
So, anybody who knows is under NDA, therefore we wait.

Probabely never. I can think that matrix will drop the internal resources for other games...

Mikura and subsequent E classes had 120mm DP guns. In game they all have naval guns only.

That should be able to be fixed in the editor.

Maybe someone should start a list of such issues so players can correct them for modified scenarios.

If I patch to 1.128Beta will I be able to copy my game file from 1.126a and continue playing that game?

Yes, you just save your old .exe as a .bak file and paste the new .exe into your folder. If you are playing PBEM, then both players have to use the same .exe file.

Sorry I should clarify - my SAVE game file. Will the 1.126a save game still work with the 1.28Beta upgrade?

YES . . .

Does it without a way point? If it does then it's time/distance related in that it arrives too late to unload that turn.
