WitP Utility

[Bodhi]

Standard way to resize is via the resize handle at the bottom right of the report form. However to make things easier for me when laying out the form, I started with the assumption that you'd be using 1024x768 resolution as that's what WitP uses. So although you can make the form larger in running WitP in windowed mode, you'll find there's a minimum size for the form set.

Bodhi,

Thank you for your fast response and most of all thanks for all your time and effort.

Are there issues when running Windows with a bigger DPI for fonts ?

Possibly. I did make some changes to accomodate larger fonts, but if you find any problems let me know the specifics and I'll take another look.

I've tried downloading your updated utility several times over the past few days and nothing happens. Is it actually available? I had no problem when I grabbed an earlier version.

[Bodhi]

Just tried downloading it now from the link in my signature without any problem.

At 130 DPI, you can't see the tabs.

[Bodhi]

OK, seems like there are some issues with using large fonts. Once I finish adding things I may take a look again at the large font issue, but it probably won't be for a while.

Available from here: WitP Utility v1.0.5

Here's the list of changes from 1.0.4

• Added option to add memos to hexes on the map
• Added option to display the hexes where the player's Task Forces were spotted by the opponent in the previous move
• Added "<ALL>" options to ship class list for each class in the tracking reports so that all reports for a class can be viewed together
• Altered colours of icons for tracked ships with red (J) and green (A) displaying location if previous day, yellow if tracked ship(s) at that location within the past week, and grey for known locations over one week old
• Altered display of some short dates so that can now correctly order lists by date
• Altered format of some of the tracking messages to improve clarity
• Altered the default naval departure date to the current game date
• Fixed problem with Pry's scenarios (30 to 35) not displaying the base supplies/fuel/oil/resources

Hex Memos: To add memos, make sure the map has the focus (you can click on it to be sure) and the cursor is over the desired hex, then press the F1 to open the add/edit memo window. To delete a memo if no longer need, put the mouse of the hex and press the F6 key. Display of hex memos can be toggled on/off on the Options - 2 tab. This tab also allows the user to select the colour of the memo text and background.

TF Spotted Hexes: Options -2 tab also contain the on/off toggle for displaying the hexes where your TFs were spotted by the enemy in the last move. A naval search plane icon is used to highlight the hex (red for TFs spotted by Japanese and green for Allies).

Work has just started on the next version, no ETA as yet.

There doesn't seem to be anyway to get to the sightings reports. I appears as though you just have to scroll through the map looking for the airplane icons. Is this the only way to find all your ships that were sighted? Could this info be added to the ops screen?

Hehehe, and what can we expect from the "next" version?

All I save for the user's side is the fact that a TF was spotted in a particular hex. The program doesn't know which of your ships/TFs are in the hex, so it can't cross-reference them. It would be possible to get a listing of the hexes in which a TF was spotted, but I find it easier to use the map rather than a list of x,y hex values.

Details on sightings of your opponent's TFs are in the operations/intel/tracking output.

Under consideration are:

• Arrows indicating direction/speed/size of spotted TFs
• Tracking of base ownership and improvements
• Executive daily summary

Any other things you think would be useful?

Actually, I don't care what the other side's sighting report contains. All I want to know is that one of my TF's was spotted at hex x,y. I.E. "Friendly TF spotted at hex x,y". Then I would like to be able to click on this field the way you do with ops reports and go to the hex. Especially for keeping track of sighted subs this method would be easier, IMO, than scrolling through the map.
