I guess that speaks to where you stand on Eric's priority list......

I lumped the first three bugs together as one. Then marked the three I fixed today.

Personally, I think it's pointless to just wait passively in this situation. I suggest making a call to Eric's office at an appropriate time to explain your demands to him and remind him to open the email you sent earlier. I believe this will be more conducive to the progress of the matter.

In the Commander Editor when assigning a Commander to a side. If the Commander is already assigned clicking the assign button a second time should unassign them instead of saying they are already assigne

Regarding an open beta. Did you suggest to Eric you contact him before you do that or was it he that said you need to wait for his okay? I don't recall the specifics but I do recall he said okay to an open beta.

Whether he's OK'd it or not, I need FTP support. That's got to come from somewhere. I can't just give out access to the Development site without permission.

In fact, it really should put a post on this board:

It depends upon what formation is in the "Current Formation" button. If it's the one he's assigned to it will unassign him. If it's something else it won't.

Say I accidentlly put Kesselring in the scenario on side one. I want to undo that. Pressing the side one button a second time while Kesselring is highlighted would return him to Not in Scenario.

OK. Misunderstood what you meant.

I didn't exactly explain it very well the first time.

Finally got the 10th bug fixed. Much harder than it appeared.

Wonderful work! Is your list an accurate list of those left to fix?

Fixed a couple more bugs. I also moved the one legacy bug on this list to the Legacy bug list.

Here's a couple of examples of the new Prussian and Holy Roman Empire flags generating German Rank Names:

And Here are a couple of shots of, first, the alert (! ! ) for a detached commander, and, second, the same alert for a detached formation:

And here is a shot of the updated OOB-Units dialog with the three Disband radio-button checkboxes (Allowed, Restricted, or Prohibited), and either an Indivisible checkbox or a Non-Recombinable checkbox:

High Charisma commanders reduce the chances of subordinate units they are stacked with from routing/reorganizing in combat, or increase their chances of recovering from such inter-turn.

Political Strength impacts how easy a commander is to remove from a command or promote or demote that commander. So...a high PS but lousy commander can be hard to remove - making him a problem for owning players.

I fixed one more bug (#10 on the list): Now, once a commander has been added from the Commander List Editor to the Commander Inventory Editor, it can be removed by clicking the assign button for that side again, with that commander selected. The commander returns to "Not in Scenario" and is removed from that side's inventory.

Here, Andrew Jackson is highlighted but "Not in Scenario". The button highlighted will now be clicked to assign him to side 1.
