Hi Floyd, Great to hear that the tool is being updated and thanx for providing it in the first place. I use it all the time, but apparently not nearly to the level that some folks do!

The following screenshots show what I mean by not seeing info in the editor.

For airgroup #400, the scheduled resize is listed in the editor, I have highlighted the field in red.
For airgroup #500, this is one of the ijn carrier airgroups, the scheduled resize is not listed in the editor, I have also highlighted the empty field in red.
Both units show a scheduled resize in game.

Some resizing is hardwired, don't ask why! By the way in occurs one month after the first refit so maybe it's doctrine?

Once it is resized your free to resize any way you wish.

Indeed it is much valuable this tool. Thanks for the job done.

In "Devices" a filter value for filter "Special" for "Unused devices" would be useful (Pool, Need, Used, Draw, Active & Build = 0).

I would add 2 filters in "Air Groups and Pilots" → "Pilots":
Is a leader?
Nation
and columns in result list for showing Leader ID and Pilot stats for (Air,Navb,...).

In "Ships", 6 columns could be added:
Tons
Range
CurSpeed
Durability
Belt
Deck
Tower
and column "Speed" should show Max undamaged speed (sometimes it does not show this).

In "Ship Classes" 4 columns could be added:
Gun
AA
ASW
Torp

Indeed I made these corrections myself to the Java files and recompiled the same with some other changes for my personal use.

Excellent suggestions!

caine: CurSpeed

Why would you need to know the speed of the ship's dog? Wouldn't Cru(ise)Speed be more useful?

[Chris21wen]

Adding weapons to ship classes would increase the columns upwards of 12 columns, not practical. What might work is some way of calculating the combined firepower of each type.

Not sure I remember well. I would say it was because Curspeed is Maxspeed taking into account damage. This way you can assess damage to speed faster.

Just noticed your location and I am guessing that English isn't your first language, so I should mention that a 'cur' in English means a dog (usually an unfriendly stray dog). And in English the starting letters for Cruise speed are Cru. Thus I think your column for CurSpeed should read CruSpeed.

And Cruise Speed is just the economical speed to keep fuel usage down. It doesn't reveal anything about damage until the damage causes the ship's best speed to go below the normal cruise speed.

I was looking at the air group screen a bit and could not find anything on scheduled resizing. I looked up most of it in the editor, going by id made it easy (although some information like on scen 1 ijn carrier air groups seems to be missing in the editor ).
Maybe something for the future version (or just me being blind ).

Unfortunately AG resizing is one of the things missing from tracker but it's also missing from the game as well unless you open or hover over each and every AG. Similar problem with the Editor in that you have to select each AG. There is a way of finding this out by extracting the scenario data using the witploadAE.exe. Then open WITPgrp002.csv using a spreadsheet can find it in column DV on mine plus renaming etc. However scen #1 attached as a zip.

Not sure ehat you mean by this?

I found where the air group resizes are. I'll see how I can add that information.

If someone can remind me how to post pictures, I can show some sample screens.

I use Win 11 snipping tool. When it open click new A small cross appear then just drag it around what ever you want then save. It'll do more than that but you'll work it out.

To post drag image onto post. On attachment tab either leave alone for standard attachment or click 'Place inline' to embed in post as here

Whoa! Crisp, clean and looking good.

Looks perfect.....

[GrosserKreuzer]

Very nice!

I'm pretty sure I need this. It took me 4 weeks to do my first turn on Dec 8th scenario full war. I'm working on Dec 9th and thought, "Hmm, I need a way to organize all this or turns will take 5 days at least."

I appreciate all the hard work that has gone on before I ever took the game up. I've only owned the game for 17 years.
