Matrix Games Forums

I'm trying this forum because no one seems to know definitely how a unit or HQ can draw supplies and or fuel from stocks in captured towns or cities. I've had HQ"s sitting on cities with supply stocks for multiple turns and even when they were isolated during the mud turns. The instructions state:
20.4.2.1. Receiving Supply from City and Urban Hexes
Units can draw supplies or fuel directly from a city or urban hex if they are in or adjacent to the hex. Units other than headquarter units may only do this in the second supply sub-segment, while headquarter units may do this in both supply sub-segments.
I've checked the levels at the start of my turns and there has been no drop in the captured city supply or fuel levels. Is there something that needs to done in order for HQ"s to draw supplies from cities with stocks that they are sitting on?

Alright. I've tried two forums and no one seems to know. I've tried searching the forums for anyone who may have brought this up ( which I find so hard to believe) but I have typed in anything I can think of down to the one word 'supply' and the search keeps coming up with nothing. What am I doing wrong in the 'Search Term' line?

Remember to change "Display topics from last:" from 365 days to All Topics. That will allow you to search through older posts.
Anyway, I remember that this should be working (for individual resupply, not through HQs), but there may be something that prevents this from working properly. Anyway, the effect would be small, it's mainly isolation penalty that kills units, not lack of supplies.

This seems like a silly question- but I have looked over the manual and the forums and cannot find the answer. On the Combat Unit Detail Window, the morale is listed as (for example): 40 (45). I am assuming that the 40 is the current morale, and the 45 refers to a base morale- a limit of sorts that can only be exceeded by combat victories, but not by simply being in refit mode 10+ hexes from the front. Is that correct?

Yes. 45 is your national morale.

The (45) is the current national morale for this unit type, for several unit types like cav/arm it should include additional morale bonus given for these unit type

Do "defense scouted" results count for guards status, general win/loss effects, morale gains/losses, and other effects of victory/defeat? I got a lot of these results on a turn that was just ran, check my units win/loss record in the commander's report, and they didn't get any wins from the "defense scouted" results.

Scouted results count neither as a win or a loss. It's basically a good leader (or lucky die roll) turning a loss into a tie.

Yes. Intended to be fixed in an upcoming patch. Introduced in an earlier patch as an unintended consequence of an attempt to nerf German air supply, I think. Did a really good job.

Yes, it's a problem that will be corrected in next patch. You have to move them to reserve or have at least 100% fuel needs in an airbase to increase the speed of conversion from reserve to ready.

Return from reserve to ready always required at least 100% fuel need in airbase, unlike return from damaged to ready (don't know why).
Earlier transports became damaged after flying air supply missions, but thinking it's too severe I changed this to becoming reserve.
This made the first issue very visible.

I think morvael just said it was someone else's bug[;)]

hi!
in ver 1.11.02 the game does not work in PBEM mode (new game)

Does the save file have .sav suffix or .psv suffix?

I will check this ASAP.

I can confirm the problem, this is caused by a secret fix which prevented certain cheat from working. I will try to push a fix for this as soon as possible.
