Patch 06 - Public Beta - Build 1108r9 updated 21 January 2012 (2nd part)

[michaelm75au]

1108r5d Fixed Use Manchuko + Korea hex ownership to determine garrision [MEM]

As the original garrison value covered NW control zone, have changed the garrison check to match same as original but is concentrated to units in hexes that belong to Manuchuko and Korea (as per pwhex).

Updated 1108r5e - earlier version only counted garrisoned bases rather than any hex

Hello there.

My initial screen says Patch Version 1.8.0.6; can I just install the latest patch on the first page to bring it to 1108r4, or do I need to install something else too?

Thanks!

Just install the beta. It replaces the EXE and runs. Not that it creates its own shortcut on desktop but without any proper switches. You will need to add your preferred switches (like -f -cpu ...) to it.

Would it be possible to have the British carriers and other combat vessels that arrive in Colombo via the reinforcement track moved to arrive in Aden instead in one of your future updates? As things stand now, if Japan takes Colombo they basically sink those ships since they’ll never arrive in game once the port changes hands.

Thanks for all your hard work, it's greatly appreciated.

"Reroute Ships from Trincomalee and Columbo to Capetown instead of destroying them"
This is already in place.

Hello Michael..Here is a request.........When time to make unit withdrawals, we can go to the list of aircraft units, and by clicking on the unit, the withdraw/disband unit is displayed,(within the scheduled list of units to withdraw, inside the "Intel" button).....

Is it possible to do likewise with the SHIP withdrawal units?.......At present, to withdraw a ship, one must write down the ships one needs to withdraw, leave the "Intel" button, and manually track all those ships down indiviually..

Just seems the "man in charge" might be able to disband them by radio/teletype as quick as withdrawing/disbanding those planes??

I second this! Would save bit of trouble. Not essential, but "nice to have".

we started a taskforce with 7 cv 5 cvl 6 bb an 10 crusiers. also 20 dd an 5 ao The ao´s had 50 k fuel loaded after only 46 hex the fuel on that ao is nearly empty now several ships are on 20 % fuel Thats damm much fuel for such a short distance is there an error ? or should it be that way. the ships all where on full fuel when we started that tf: the speed was mission speed

46 hexes is pretty far for 20 DDs..and those DDs drink fuel a lot..repeat, a lot. Especially if they are short-range ones.

The screns:















20 dd need 50 000 tons extra fuel for 46 hexes?? sorry but that way too much i think. i expect there is a bug somewhere in the fuel use system. or should it be that way: japan can´t move ships anymore unless you storage million tons of fuel for a 1 month fighting campagne with its fleet ? if that is wanted the japanese can´t move more than 20 hexes away from there bases so an attack is not possible not e defense nothing goes anymore !!!

My first thoughts are a little different than Sardaukar's. First off, the fill-size CVs and the BBs drink fuel at the fastest rate. You've got 13 of those plus another 10 CVLs/cruisers. The DDs will need to refuel a lot because they have small fuel tanks, but they use far less per mile than the big boys. 46 hexes is 1,840nm certainly a long distance but not exactly clear across the ocean.

So my questions are, what speed was the TF running: Full Speed or Mission Speed (which means Cruise Speed most of the time)? Were all ships fully fueled when they started out? Did any other TFs wind up in the same hex with them at any time (those TFs could have refueled from this TF)? Anything else going on in that area you might mention?

[sandmann_slith]

mission speed  only..
startpoint was truk.

[sandmann_slith]

and yes at startpoint all bunker was full.
and more then 50.000 t extra full in the Ao´s.
After the 41 hex the Ao´s was empty and the  other ships at ca 20 %.

[witpqs]

This is not making sense to me. The numbers under "Endurance" on the TF display are in nautical miles. So, if that TF (as you describe it) had full bunkers it would not have even needed the fuel in the AOs. The DDs would have refueled, but they could do that from the larger ships.

What date did the TF leave Truk? Is it possible that it did refuel other TFs, especially say at Truk (which tends to have lots of traffic)?
