I had one where the weather turned bad in the Hawaiian Islands on 12/7/41 and only 6 zeros made an attack at all...,
Thats actually a problem Mike, the weather is hard coded for the first turn because of the obvious implications. Remember the options you were running with?
Sorry Frag, I don't have a clue. It was one of my first few starts and I was sort of trying
the variables at random to see what the differences might be. Obviously it was pretty
variable---but I remember thinking at the time it WAS realistic. The Japanese had their
whole war plan triggered to go at that time (including the Declaration that was delivered
late), and if the weather had turned out lousy in Hawaii that day they WERE hosed.
Understood Mike ... thats why they coded the weather to be the way it is on turn 1. Obviously had it not been good, PH would have been a really silly place to be on Dec 7th.
