8.8 cm flak question.

[Dragoon.]

If you still have the save I could take a look.

[FJeff]

No, but I'll try to duplicate it.

[FJeff]

duplicated it. How do I send the save?

[Dragoon.]

Zip the file and upload it to a file hosting service then post the link here.

If you use Windows 7 you can compress by right click on it, then navigate the context menu to send to -> compressed (zipped) folder
You can upload the compressed file to one of the file hosting services below.

Save looks good too me.

Let us go through a checklist and see if we can track down the issue.

To switch modes for multipurpose units you have to click this button


Usually the unit model will change when switching modes. 88's in Anti-Air mode have the barrel pointed upwards, while in AT mode the barrel is horizontal.

88 in AT mode


Same is true for Arty/AT units that support dual modes like German Stuh42, StugIV and russian SU122, SU152.

You have to switch modes before moving a unit. You can't do it afterwards.

Do you have any modification installed? They could interfere with the game in an unexpected way.

Do you have the latest patch installed ?
Panzer Corps Patch 1.11

That is all what comes to my mind for now.

[FJeff]

Ah, I was using the Ground/Air button instead of the switch. Thanks for pointing that out.

[Dragoon.]

You're welcome.

I want use the opportunity to call on the devs to add a hotkey for the switch mode.

In 1.13 a hotkey for Switch (W) was added.

Great! I assume ETA is the same day as DLC '45 West, February 19th?

Yep.

I'm a big fan of 88's. Early, great AT. Late, Great ADA as the Allied AF's increase.

The secret of AT use is running it up, behind a front line unit and then revealing it in the next turm along with an advance.

Strong SP arty helps reduce any surprises...
